Overview

Cross-sectional analysis reveals distinct associations of screen time types with academic achievement and social behavior among active youth.

Key Points

  • Mentally passive screen time is linked to lower curiosity and increased bullying victimization in physically active youth, indicating negative impacts.
  • Heavy users of passive screen time (≥4 h daily) show significantly higher odds of memory difficulties (OR=3.80) and reduced resilience compared to lighter users.
  • Light users of mentally active screen time (<1 h daily) demonstrate higher curiosity and resilience, suggesting potential positive associations with academic outcomes.
  • Recommendations for screen time in youth should differentiate between screen types and usage durations to mitigate risks associated with excessive sedentary activities.
