Wang & Cai, 2017; F. Zhang et al, 2020, 2021). However, due to differences in parents' educational background (cultural capital), not all parents are able to participate in their children's learning (Antony‐Newman, 2019).…”

“…This paper suggests that families, schools and society should pay more attention to guiding children to develop good internet habits and better control their internet entertainment time, with optimal effects not necessarily being achieved only through strict prohibition. From the perspective of family guidance, parents should help children to cultivate healthy and reasonable entertainment habits, thus, arranging reasonable internet entertainment time [ 35 ]. At the same time, parents should face up to the benefits brought by internet entertainment, and they can use internet entertainment as a means to motivate children so as to form a harmonious family internet atmosphere and further promote the development of children’s cognitive abilities.…”

Internet technology has been assimilated into children’s educational system on an in-depth level. In particular, the number of children who use the internet for entertainment has been rapidly increasing. However, there has been a debate as to whether internet entertainment can have a detrimental impact on children’s cognitive ability. This paper investigates the effect of internet entertainment on the cognitive ability of children in the Chinese context. The results show no evidence of associations between internet entertainment and children’s cognitive ability. However, the additional analysis provides preliminary evidence suggesting that internet entertainment can be beneficial to children who use it for entertainment only on weekends but detrimental for those who spend leisure time online daily. In addition, the findings are robust in a variety of sensitivity tests. We also examine whether the effects of internet entertainment on children’s cognitive ability in different family environments are heterogeneous. The findings suggest that parents’ internet habits, parents’ internet supervision, parental relationship, family education and living area play a moderating role in the relationship between internet entertainment and children’s cognitive ability. This study offers useful insights into the current global debate on the nexus between internet entertainment and children’s cognitive ability and also provides suggestions for parents, children, regulators and policymakers.

“…In addition, empirical studies reveal that children's externalising behavioural problems are significantly related to poverty and food insecurity (Kim et al., 2019; Lee & Schoppe‐Sullivan, 2017; Slopen et al., 2010). Due to lack of resources, children living in poverty also show terrible performance in educational outcomes, such as low cognitive ability and academic achievement (Jiang & Dong, 2020b; Lacour & Tissington, 2011; Olszewski‐Kubilius & Corwith, 2018). In brief, the above evidence suggests that structural‐economic exclusion relates to low child well‐being in physical, psychological, behavioural and educational domains.…”

Social exclusion is a widely accepted risk factor for child well‐being, but relatively little is known about its dynamics and effect on multiple well‐being domains. This study aims to extend prior research by examining the influencing mechanisms of structural‐economic and socio‐relational exclusion on the physical, psychological, behavioural and educational well‐being of Chinese migrant children. Multi‐stage cluster random sampling is used to recruit a sample of migrant children (N = 484; Mage = 11.65 years; 52.9% girls) in Kunming, China, and structural equation modelling is used for data analysis. Results indicate that a high level of structural‐economic exclusion predicts a high level of socio‐relational exclusion, which, in turn, leads to low levels of physical, psychological, behavioural and educational well‐being among migrant children. This study not only contributes to the understanding of the dynamic effects of social exclusion but also provides practical implications for social policy and interventions to reduce social exclusion and improve the well‐being of Chinese migrant children.
