© The Author(s) 2017. This is a final draft version of an article whose final and definitive form has been published by SAGE. Published in this repository with the kind permission of the publisher.
The aim of the article is to see whether or not adolescents were the real leaders of the
digital ‘revolution’ in the 1990s and whether they have sustained or even improved their
position in the 2000s. The analysis is based on two surveys carried out in Italy, France,
the United Kingdom, Germany and Spain in 1996 (N=6,609) and in 2009 (N=7,255).
The results show that the adolescents belonging to the first digital generation in 1996
were the most equipped with new technologies, although not the most intensive users.
In 2009, the adolescents lost their position as the leading adopters and lagged behind
youth and young adults regarding the use of new technologies and computer skills.
