ABSTRACT

We aimed to investigate the relationship between screen time and school readiness. A total of 80 ppreschool children were included. Parents were interviewed about their children’s daily screen time. The Metropolitan Readiness Test was utilized. Results showed that the school readiness of those with a total screen time of 3 hours or less was significantly higher. TV time was inversely associated with reading readiness (B=− 2.30,p < .001), whereas mobile device time was inversely associated with both reading (B = −0.96,p = .04) and numbers readiness (B = −0.98,p = .02). This study point to the importance of supervising children’s screen use, and of awareness of parents and professionals.

摘要

我们的目的是调查屏幕时间和入学准备之间的关系。总共包括 80 名学龄前儿童。父母接受了关于他们孩子每天看屏幕的时间的采访。使用了大都会准备测试。结果显示，屏幕总时间不超过 3 小时的学生的入学准备程度明显更高。看电视时间与阅读准备程度呈负相关 (B=− 2.30, p  < .001)，而移动设备时间与阅读准备程度 (B = −0.96, p  = .04) 和数字准备程度 (B = −0.98, p < .001)呈负相关p  = .02）。这项研究指出了监督儿童屏幕使用以及家长和专业人士意识的重要性。
