Researchers in Finland tracked children's screen time for 8 years, expecting to document the damage. The children who spent more hours on screens showed better cognitive processing as teenagers — a result that ran directly against the assumption the study…
📱 Higher screen time since childhood linked to better cognitive processing in adolescence, suggesting screens can support learning and thinking if used actively.
🏃♀️ Girls with more light physical activity since childhood showed better working memory. Boys with more guided physical activity from childhood to adolescence also saw improved working memory.
🤔 Lesser self-reported unsupervised physical activity was unexpectedly tied to better cognitive processing. Device-measured activity showed no association, highlighting the complexity of assessment.
