<\/a>Key Points<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Question<\/strong>  Is there an association between different types of screen time in young children and academic achievement in grades 3 and 6, as measured by standardized tests in reading, writing, and math?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Findings<\/strong>  In this cohort study of 3322 grade 3 children and 2084 grade 6 children recruited from primary care settings in Ontario, Canada, between 2008 and 2023, higher parent-reported total screen time and TV and digital media time were associated with lower reading and math achievement on standardized tests in elementary school.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meaning<\/strong>  These findings suggest that early interventions to reduce screen time exposure should be developed and tested to promote healthy screen use habits and enhance academic achievement in elementary school.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Abstract<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Importance<\/strong>  Few studies have investigated the longitudinal associations between different types of screen time in young children and academic achievement in elementary school.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Objective<\/strong>  To examine whether there is an association between screen time in young children and standardized academic achievement tests in grades 3 and 6.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Design, Setting, and Participants<\/strong>  This prospective cohort study was conducted among children participating in the TARGet Kids! primary care cohort in Ontario, Canada, between July 2008 and June 2023. Participant data were linked to annual grades 3 and 6 provincial standardized academic achievement test results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Exposures<\/strong>  Parent-reported child total screen time, TV and digital media time, and video gaming time. The screen time measurement closest before the outcome was used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Main Outcomes and Measures<\/strong>  Academic achievement levels on standardized tests in reading, writing, and math for grades 3 and 6 were classified as below, at, or above the Ontario provincial standard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Results<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0This study included 3322 grade 3 children (mean [SD] age at test, 8.86 [0.28] years; 1714 [51.6%] male students) and 2084 grade 6 children (mean [SD] age at test, 11.86 [0.28] years; 1070 [51.3%] male students). Screen time was measured at mean (SD) age of 5.54 (2.36) years for grade 3 children and 7.54 (2.90) years for grade 6 children. From adjusted proportional odds models, each additional hour of total screen time was associated with 9% to 10% lower odds of achieving a higher academic level in grade 3 reading (odds ratio [OR], 0.91; 95% CI, 0.86-0.96;\u00a0P<\/em>\u2009=\u2009.001), grade 3 math (OR, 0.91; 95% CI, 0.86-0.96;\u00a0P<\/em>\u2009<\u2009.001), and grade 6 math (OR, 0.90; 95% CI, 0.84-0.96;\u00a0P<\/em>\u2009=\u2009.002). Similarly, higher TV and digital media time was associated with lower achievement levels in grade 3 reading and math and grade 6 math. Video game use was associated with lower achievement level in grade 3 reading (OR, 0.77; 95% CI, 0.62-0.94;\u00a0P<\/em>\u2009=\u2009.01). In the sex-stratified analysis, video game use among female students was associated with lower grade 3 reading and math achievement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Conclusions and Relevance<\/strong>  In this prospective cohort study of Canadian children recruited from primary care settings, high levels of total screen time and TV and digital media in young children were associated with lower achievement levels in reading and math on standardized tests in elementary school. Early interventions to reduce screen time exposure should be developed and tested to enhance academic achievement in elementary school.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
