Contributions of Screen Use on Early Language and Development Milestones in Argentinean Toddlers from Different Socioeconomic Contexts

Abstract: The objective of the following research was to describe the use of digital media (i.e., TV, background TV, cell phone, PC, and Tablet), presence of the adults during this activity, and its association with language, motor, and language developmental milestones and SES in the first years of life. Participants were 114 primary caregivers of toddlers between 12 and 36 months ( M = 27.48 months, SD = 7.31, female = 58, low SES = 56). Parental reports of infant media use, motor and language d… Show more

“…At 12 months, expressive vocabulary is only emerging, and most of our sample reported to not have any screen time at all, or less than 1 hour per day, an exposure brief enough to have a limited impact, if any. Finally, it must be highlighted that our global measure of infants' daily exposure to screens did not include TV exposure per se, and did not assess potential varying effects of the content and context of screen time consumption on language learning (Gago- Galvagno et al, 2023;Jing et al, 2023;Madigan et al, 2020). Future research is needed to address these questions and potential dissociations between passive vs active screen exposure, and the role of parent support and engagement during periods of screen use (see also Bergmann et al, 2022), on infants' language development.…”
