Screen time for kids under age 2 is linked to sensory differences in toddlerhood, new study finds
Fox News
Screen time for children under 2 years of age could result in "atypical sensory" behaviors and other processing issues, a new study from Drexel University in Pennsylvania suggests.
"Atypical sensory processing is commonly seen in several behavioral health problems, including children with ADHD and up to 90% of children with autism." Christine Rousselle is a lifestyle reporter with Fox News Digital.
"This study finds an association between greater screen time in the first two years of life and ‘high’ sensory-related behaviors in areas," the study's lead author, Karen Heffler, M.D., an associate professor of psychiatry at Drexel University, told Fox News Digital.
