Women use more emoticons and SMS than men
A new Rice University study has found that while women twice as often as men, the use of emoticons in text messages, the men use a variety of graphic symbols to express themselves.
Emoticons are graphical symbols that represent the humor to convey facial expressions of a person, help with the marks of punctuation and letters, communication text to provide context to a person and possibly clarify a message that otherwise could be misinterpreted. The study used Smartphone data for men and women for more than six months and added 124,000 text messages. Participants received free iPhones use for the trial period, but no, what the researchers were investigated.
