High screen time in young children linked to lower reading and math scores, a Canadian study finds.
A large Canadian study of over 5,000 children links higher screen time to lower reading and math performance in primary school, finding each additional hour associated with a 9% to 10% reduced likelihood of high academic achievement.
The research, conducted by The Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto and published in JAMA Network Open, found TV, digital media, and video game use were tied to poorer outcomes, especially in younger children.
While the study calls for early guidelines to reduce screen exposure, experts caution that other studies show no significant link, urging consideration of the broader evidence before drawing firm conclusions.
