From the press release:
New research from Bath psychologist Dr Rachael Bedford highlights some of the effects regular use of touchscreens could have on toddlers.
Toddlers with high daily touchscreen use are quicker to look at objects when they appear and are less able to resist distraction compared to toddlers with no or low touchscreen use – according to new research from Birkbeck, University of London, King’s College London and University of Bath.
