“…Although this finding has been consistently replicated with high levels of use, bedtime use, and violent or frightening media content, [1][2][3][4][5][6][7] effects have been observed across cultures and in all media formats (television, 6,[8][9][10] video games, [10][11][12] and computers 11,13,14 ) and across the age spectrum, including preschoolers, 2,7-9 school-aged children, 1,[3][4][5][6] and adolescents and adults. [13][14][15] Much of the existing research linking media use to child sleep problems has been crosssectional, however, raising the possibility that the causality is reversed; that is, that sleep problems are leading to increased media use, evening media use, and exposure to violent media content, rather than the other way around.…”
