项目摘要

Current trends in visual media are causing children to have increased exposure to media such as video games, watching videos, and receiving long-term exposure to media. As such, visual media is starting to have a serious impact on children. Parents allow and even encourage children to repeatedly watch child-directed educational videotapes and other media materials, which claim to "stimulate children's cognitive development." While it is believed that such extensive exposure to visual media reduces children's responsiveness, focus, and ability to communicate with individuals in the real world, there is currently not enough evidence to support this claim.The present research focuses on the ways in which long-term exposure to educational visual media affects children's ability to respond to real life individuals. The current research involved questionnaires, experimental studies, and a short-term longitudinal study. First, 3000 parents and guardians were asked to respond to questionnaires … More regarding their children's exposure to visual media. The results showed that younger children received longer exposure to visual media, and that children of parents with compulsory parenting styles had greater exposure to visual media than those with less forcible parenting styles. Second, the educational effect of video games was compared to that of storybook reading between parents and children. The results showed that parent-child conversations markedly decreased during video game usage, and that the children did not show any progress in their cognitive abilities, thus failing to meet the games' alleged educational goals. Third, mother-child conversations during video game usage were investigated in a short-term longitudinal study. The results showed that mother-child conversations regarding the ways to play the game increased, but there was no respective increase in conversations regarding the educational content of the games. Furthermore, mother-child conversations were minimal while the child played the video games.The results are discussed regarding the impact of educational visual media on children's cognitive development. Future designs for children's educational visual media are suggested. Less

目前视觉媒体的趋势导致儿童越来越多地接触电子游戏、观看视频等媒体，并长期接触媒体。因此，视觉媒体开始对儿童产生严重影响。父母允许甚至鼓励孩子反复观看以孩子为导向的教育录像带和其他媒体材料，这些材料声称“刺激孩子的认知发展”。虽然人们认为，如此广泛地接触视觉媒体会降低儿童在现实世界中的反应能力、注意力和与人交流的能力，但目前还没有足够的证据支持这一说法。目前的研究集中在长期接触教育视觉媒体如何影响儿童对现实生活个体的反应能力。目前的研究包括问卷调查、实验研究和短期纵向研究。首先，3000名家长和监护人被要求回答问卷，更多关于他们孩子接触视觉媒体的情况。结果表明，年龄越小的孩子接触视觉媒体的时间越长，强制性教育方式的父母的孩子接触视觉媒体的时间比强制性教育方式较少的父母的孩子多。其次，将电子游戏的教育效果与父母与孩子之间阅读故事书的教育效果进行比较。结果显示，在玩电子游戏期间，亲子对话明显减少，孩子们的认知能力没有任何进步，因此未能达到游戏所谓的教育目标。第三，通过短期纵向研究调查了电子游戏使用过程中的母子对话。结果显示，关于游戏玩法的母婴对话有所增加，但关于游戏教育内容的对话却没有增加。此外，当孩子玩电子游戏时，母子对话很少。讨论了教育视觉媒体对儿童认知发展的影响。对未来儿童教育视觉媒体的设计提出了建议。少
