许多儿童花在屏幕媒体上的时间超过了美国儿科学会推荐的时间。有证据表明,父母看电视与孩子看电视的时间水平较高有关,但我们对儿童使用其他技术预测媒体使用的情况知之甚少。通过对2300多名0-8岁儿童家长的全国代表性抽样调查,调查了儿童使用四种数字媒体设备--电视、电脑、智能手机和平板电脑--的时间。线性回归分析的结果表明,在所有四个平台上,父母自己看屏幕的时间与孩子看屏幕的时间密切相关。进一步的分析表明,儿童屏幕时间的使用似乎是儿童和父母因素相互作用的结果,并受到父母态度的高度影响。结果表明,政策制定者在制定影响儿童在家中使用屏幕媒体的政策时,应将家庭环境作为一个整体来考虑。(C)2014 Elsevier Inc.保留所有权利。
Many children are spending more time with screen media than has been recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics. There is evidence that parent television use is associated with higher levels of child television time, but we know little about what predicts children's media use with other technology. Using a nationally representative sample of more than 2300 parents of children ages 0-8, children's time spent with four digital media devices - television, computers, smartphones, and tablet computers - was examined. Results from linear regression analyses indicate across all four platforms that parents' own screen time was strongly associated with child screen time. Further analyses indicate that child screen time use appears to be the result of an interaction between child and parent factors and is highly influenced by parental attitudes. Results suggest that policymakers should consider the family environment as a whole when developing policy to influence children's screen media use at home. (C) 2014 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
