Goals
"The aim of the present study was to investigate how Swedish families’ DM use is related to the child’s behavior: internalized and externalized behavior and prosocial behaviors. We were interested in the parents' self-reported problematic DM use and technoference in their daily lives and if these relate to their description of their 4 and 5-year-old children’s behavior. The study also considers socioeconomic factors, such as education and income of the participating families, as well as possible gender differences." (Authors, 372)
