Levels of physical inactivity and screen-based entertainment are alarmingly high among preschool children, yet little is known about the independent effects of these behaviours on cognitive and psychosocial development during early childhood. This project will investigate the associations between physical activity and screen-based entertainment and cognitive and psychosocial development in preschool children. The findings will identify how much and which types of these behaviours influence developmental outcomes in young children. This knowledge will benefit parents, educators, health professionals and governments to develop and implement evidence-based strategies and policies to give young children the best start in life.

在学龄前儿童中，缺乏身体活动和基于屏幕的娱乐活动的水平高得惊人，但人们对这些行为对幼儿期认知和心理社会发展的独立影响知之甚少。该项目将调查身体活动和基于屏幕的娱乐与学龄前儿童的认知和心理社会发展之间的关联。研究结果将确定这些行为在多大程度上以及哪些类型会影响幼儿的发展结果。这些知识将使父母、教育工作者、卫生专业人员和政府受益，以制定和实施循证战略和政策，为幼儿提供最好的生活开端。
