Using Wearable Video Cameras to Assess Screen Use Contexts in Preschool-Aged Children: Pilot Observational Study

Contexts considered beneficial for development (eg, educational and age-appropriate content) were infrequently observed. This suggests that interventions to equip parents with practical strategies to identify genuine educational content and recognize and avoid age-inappropriate content are warranted. However, our small sample size limits generalizability.

Abstract

Contexts considered beneficial for development (eg, educational and age-appropriate content) were infrequently observed. This suggests that interventions to equip parents with practical strategies to identify genuine educational content and recognize and avoid age-inappropriate content are warranted. However, our small sample size limits generalizability.
