“…This pattern coincides with the situation of children in India [14] and Portugal, as demonstrated by the data from Rocha and Nunes [32], which indicated exposure to 85 min of TV and 57 min of touchscreen use per day. Similar to the existing scientific evidence, this study's results reflected that TVs and touchscreens were identified as the most commonly used multimedia devices [11,27,33], demonstrating consistency in the types of devices to which children are exposed, regardless of cultural background [2,22].…”

“…In contrast to these guidelines, empirical studies on screen time have shown values above the suggested values [13,24,[26][27][28]. Early childhood sample studies have found that some children exceed 1 h of screen time starting at 18 months old, and that this time increases over subsequent years [2,20].…”

“…One of them found that children aged between 3 and 5 years spent an average of 154 min per day in front of screens [31], and the other study, with a sample of children under 5 years old, reported an average of 85 min of TV and 57 min of touchscreen use per day [32]. The multimedia devices most frequently used by children consist of TV, followed by touchscreen devices such as smartphones or tablets [11,27,33]. Despite this evidence, precise knowledge around the harmful effects of the use of multimedia devices on socioemotional early year development is still scarce, particularly in Portugal.…”

There is growing concern about the relationship between screen use by young children and negative effects on their development, as children with developmental and socioemotional impairments tend to have difficulties in their relationships and increased academic problems. The aim of our study was to analyse the relationship between the use of multimedia devices and paediatric symptoms in children below 5 years old. Data from 534 Portuguese parents of children aged from 18 to 57 months were collected via a self-report questionnaire. Children’s daily exposure to multimedia devices was nearly 2 h per day. Paediatric symptoms were positively associated with watching television and screen time and negatively associated with parents’ working hours. Touchscreen use was more frequent among girls and older children. Parents’ working hours comprised the most significant predictor of paediatric symptoms. Our findings reinforce past findings on the adverse links between the use of multimedia devices and paediatric symptoms and also highlight the influence of other variables like the child’s age and gender, as well as parental factors. The need to both create a more comprehensive framework regarding the long-term effects of multimedia device use and delineate effective strategies for prevention and intervention with parents and children is discussed.

“…In a recent study conducted with younger children aged 3–8 years [ 25 ], researchers conducted face-to-face interviews in 656 Portuguese households. The study involved a questionnaire for the parents of children aged between 3 and 8 years and a separate questionnaire for children aged 6–8 years.…”

Over the past twenty years, the use of electronic mobile sensors by children and youngsters has played a significant role in environmental education projects in Portugal. This paper describes a research synthesis of a set of case studies (environmental education projects) on the use of sensors as epistemic mediators, evidencing the technological, environmental, social, and didactical dimensions of environmental education projects over the last two decades in Portugal. The triggers of the identified changes include: (i) the evolution of sensors, information and communication platforms, and mobile devices; (ii) the increasing relevance of environmental citizenship and participation; (iii) the recognition of the role of multisensory situated information and quantitative information in environmental citizenship; (iv) the cause–effect relation between didactical strategies and environmental education goals; (v) the potential of sensory and epistemic learners’ practices in the environment to produce learning outcomes and new knowledge. To support the use of senses and sensors in environmental education projects, the SEAM model was created based on the developed research synthesis.

“…Concerning safety and privacy (Q8), 60.3% of the 10-12-year-olds have private profiles, as Figure 3 shows-research shows that this is often a condition imposed by parents when they allow children to first enter social media, and that parental monitoring is more common (Ponte et al 2017; Dias and Brito 2020), while 58.8% of the 13-16 year-olds have public profiles-research also shows that media literacy tends to grow along with age, and that older teenagers find it increasingly important to have more followers, and seek them actively (Ponte and Batista 2019).…”

TikTok is consolidating its place in the social media landscape. During the first three months of the COVID-19, it was the most downloaded app worldwide, and it gained 500,000 new users in Portugal. Our study sets out to map the practices of Portuguese teenagers (10–16) on TikTok. Using a Uses and Gratifications approach (U&G), we conducted an online survey with a non-probabilistic sample of 347 TikTok users. Our findings show relevant differences between younger (10–12) and older (13–16) teenagers. The youngest are more careful about privacy and enjoy more experimentation as content creators, while the oldest are more focused on building an audience. Entertainment and self-expression are the main motivations for using the platform. About 50% of our sample admits at least one behavior that is indicative of addiction.
