AimMedia的使用很普遍，而且还在不断上升，但幼儿使用媒体的频率和目的各不相同，这对发展有不同的影响。然而，很少有研究衡量36个月以下的儿童如何以及为什么使用数字媒体或媒体对语言的影响。目前的研究测量了17至30个月大的儿童如何以及为什么使用数字媒体，并将其与语言能力联系起来。然后将儿童使用媒体的数量、活动类型和照顾者的原因与儿童的词汇量和平均话语长度进行比较。结果17 - 30个月大的儿童主要接触电视/视频，而不是其他媒体形式，这些媒体经常被用来占据儿童的时间。视频时间（而不是其他活动）对孩子的语言能力有负面影响。无论使用的原因如何，视频对词汇的负面影响都会持续存在，然而，当视频用于教育或联系时，视频对表达性语言的影响可能会减弱。结论36月龄以下儿童数字媒体使用率较高。他们在做什么以及为什么使用媒体对于预测媒体可能对语言发展产生的影响至关重要。需要对录像的后果进行进一步的研究和预先指导。
AimMedia use is widespread and rising, but how often and for what purpose young children use media varies, which has differential impacts on development. Yet little work has measured how and why children under 36 months use digital media or media's consequences for language.MethodsThe current study measures how and why 17‐ to 30‐month‐old children use digital media and associations with their language abilities. The amount of use, type of activity and caregiver reasons for children's media use were then compared to the child's vocabulary and mean length of utterance.ResultsAbout 17‐ to 30‐month‐old children are primarily exposed to TV/videos over other media forms, which are often used to occupy children. Video time (but not other activities) negatively predicts children's language. The negative impact of videos on vocabulary persists regardless of the reason for use, however, the effect of videos on expressive language may be tempered when videos are used for education or connecting.ConclusionChildren under 36 months are using digital media at high rates. What they are doing and why they use media is critical to predict the effect it might have on language development. Further research and anticipatory guidance on the consequences of videos are needed.
