Ackerman and colleagues found screen inferiority in three measures:

lower test scores;
overconfidence;

less effective effort regulation.

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!
