PROJECT SUMMARY Increasingly, early childhood includes electronic media. It is not just the age at which children begin to view regularly that is concerning, but the content of the media and the context of the use. Recently, newer mobile and interactive media platforms (e.g., tablets) have changed the way media is consumed. Current viewing metrics suggest that tablet media is beginning to replace traditional TV viewing, but that passive content (“watching videos”) remains the primary component of early childhood media use. Tablets allow several important differences in use. First, apps for tablets allow both passive viewing as well as interactive game playing, providing a more diverse set of content choices. Second, the personalized use of these smaller devices allows the content to be delivered directly to the child, and adults are less likely to co-view during tablet use. On-demand access also allows programs to be controlled, changing patterns of consumption and use has extended out of the home into more environments (e.g., cars and restaurants). Observational studies of TV use have linked excessive early media use with attention problems, language delay, and cognitive detriments. It is unclear if the interactive nature of tables and apps might approximate more traditional exchanges or even promote interactions. Given the changing media landscape, a better understanding of how tablet-based media influences early learning is important for supporting better child outcomes, and potentially identifying those with early risk. To address these issues, we will investigate: (1) the immediate impact of different tablet media content on infant joint attention behaviors, engagement, and cardiophysiological responses related to regulation and attention. As well, we will explore parents’ ability to predict their child’s difficulty disengaging from touchscreen technologies. In this proposed diversity supplement, I will contribute to investigating the impact of different tablet media content in early childhood by assisting with all aspects of the research protocol, including participant recruitment, parent and toddler interactions and assessment, heart rate data collection, and analyses related to the aims of the project. I hypothesize that tablet use among children aged 18-24 months will be associated with a reduced response to joint attention bids during the app program and children will fail to comply with requests to relinquish the tablet when playing an app as compared to passive viewing on the tablet or play with a real toy.

项目概要 幼儿期越来越多地包括电子媒体。这不仅仅是孩子们开始观看电子媒体的年龄。 通常，这是令人担忧的，但媒体的内容和使用环境最近，更新的移动设备。 交互式媒体平台（例如平板电脑）改变了当前观看媒体的方式。 指标表明平板电脑媒体正在开始取代传统的电视观看方式，但被动内容 （“观看视频”）仍然是幼儿媒体使用的主要组成部分。 首先，平板电脑应用程序允许被动观看和互动游戏。 播放时，提供了更加多样化的内容选择，二是这些较小的个性化使用。 设备允许将内容直接传递给孩子，成人在观看过程中不太可能共同观看 平板电脑的使用还允许控制程序，改变消费模式和 用途已从家庭扩展到更多环境（例如，汽车和餐馆）。 的电视使用者将早期过度使用媒体与注意力问题、语言延迟和认知障碍联系起来 目前尚不清楚表格和应用程序的交互性质是否可能更接近传统。 鉴于不断变化的媒体格局，更好地了解如何进行交流，甚至促进互动。 基于平板电脑的媒体影响早期学习对于支持更好的儿童成果非常重要，并且有可能 为了解决这些问题，我们将调查：(1) 的直接影响。 不同的平板电脑媒体内容对婴儿联合注意力行为、参与度和心脏生理学的影响 此外，我们还将探讨父母预测自己的能力。 孩子很难脱离触摸屏技术。 在这份拟议的多样性补充中，我将致力于调查不同平板电脑媒体的影响 通过协助研究方案的各个方面（包括参与者）来提供幼儿期的内容 招募、家长和幼儿互动和评估、心率数据收集以及相关分析 该项目的目标是，18-24 个月的儿童使用平板电脑与此相关。 应用程序计划期间对联合关注出价的响应减少，儿童将无法遵守请求 与在平板电脑上被动观看或玩真实游戏相比，在玩应用程序时放弃平板电脑 玩具。
