 This study examined the effects of excessive screen media use on the development of young children aged 24 to 36 months. It found that spending no more than two hours per day of screen time had minimal negative effects on development, while use beyond this amount was associated with poorer language development. Additionally, it was noted that when children co-viewed with an adult, sibling or other child, and when parents also had less screen time themselves, there was less excessive screen media use.
