Screen Inferiority

Ackerman and colleagues found screen inferiority in three measures:

lower test scores;
overconfidence;

less effective effort regulation.

Does screen inferiority persist with less reading burden?

residual screen time

The duration of time when your screen device (e.g. smartphone) displays some non-blackout images whilst you aren't actively staring at the screen device — hence counted as "screen time" on its Screen Time app despite not harming your eyesight in any way

I love how my phone tracks residual screen time; I might not be staring at it, but those non-blackout images still rack up the hours like I'm glued to the screen!

screen time resolution effect

The phenomenon where children are more accepting of new screen time limits imposed by parents during significant periods such as New Year, birthdays, the start of the school year, or Ramadan, compared to normal days like a busy Wednesday.

It's like the screen time resolution effect kicks in every January; the kids are totally on board with the new limits, but try it during a hectic Wednesday, and it’s a whole different story!
