A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis on the Impact of Screen-Time on the Social-Emotional Development of Children Under Five Years.

Given the rising consumption of electronic media by children under five years of age, it is crucial to study the impact of screen time (ST) on the social-emotional development (SED) of children. Heterogenous past studies have reported emotional and behavioural problems, delayed language and motor milestones, and increased peer victimisation due to increasing ST. This review consolidates existing literature on the link between ST and children's SED, providing a comprehensive analysis of its impact.
