Teens glued to phones risk ‘modest’ rise in ADHD symptoms: study
“…the findings offer a solid basis for more research because “this was a statistically significant association,” said Adam Leventhal, a professor of preventive medicine and psychology at the University of Southern California.
“We can say with confidence that teens who were exposed to higher levels of digital media were significantly more likely to develop ADHD symptoms in the future.” (Leventhal, USC)
“About 10 percent of youths who said they commonly used digital media platforms frequently showed new ADHD symptoms over the study period, said the report.
In contrast, 4.6 percent of students who were not frequent users of any digital activity showed ADHD symptoms.” (Yahoo News)
