Screen Time and the Lives of Children

Mon, May 28, 17:00 to 18:15, Hilton Prague, Floor: LL, Vienna

Session Submission Type: Panel

Abstract

As screen time becomes increasingly interwoven into our daily lives, research has begun to include a broader menu of effects. Scholarship has examined the impact of screen time on children’s cognitive and neural functioning, their sleep patterns, and their ability to interact meaningfully with others. At the same time, screen time has impacted parenting patterns and generated much discussion about guidelines that can be used to counteract its myriad effects. The experts in this session collectively will present the latest perspectives on both the dangers and benefits of screen time.
