In an attempt to explore the changing nature of Christmas traditions, the Pew survey also asked its adult participants how they remember celebrating the holiday as children, compared to the way they celebrate it now. A whopping 86 percent said they plan to celebrate Christmas with family and friends, and the same percentage say they plan to give gifts to friends and family. Around nine in 10 adults (91 percent) said these activities were part of their holiday traditions when they were children. According to the survey, eight out of every 10 Americans (79 percent) plan to put up a Christmas tree this year, compared with 92 percent who said they typically put up a Christmas tree when they were children.
为了探讨圣诞节的传统的演变,佩尤调查还让这些成年参与者谈谈他们童年时是如何庆祝圣诞的。高达86%的受调查者说,他们是和家人朋友一起庆祝圣诞节的,也有相同比例的人说准备给朋友和家人送礼物。大约十分之一的成人(91%)表示,这些活动也是他们小时候过圣诞节的时候会做的事情。据调查,每10个美国人里有8个(79%)计划今年在家里布置一棵圣诞树,而92%的人说在他们小时候他们也通常会在圣诞节放一棵圣诞树。
Other holiday traditions remembered from childhood didn’t fare as well, however. While 81 percent of those surveyed said their families typically sent holiday cards during their childhoods, only 65 percent said they planned to do so this year. Only 16 percent said they would go caroling (compared with 36 percent who said they caroled during their childhood).
