4 Studies have found that increased screen time can actually exhibit the symptoms of ADHD in children. A 2019 study found that three-fourths of American children and adolescents reported the presence of at least one screen device in their bedroom, with around 60 percent reporting regular use of these devices during the hour before bedtime. For children, the stats are just as troubling.
2,3 Twenty-one percent of adults even reported that if they woke up in the middle of the night they would check their devices before going back to sleep. 1 Numerous studies show the connection between screen use and poor sleep, yet according to a poll at the National Sleep Foundation, nearly 50 percent of American adults said they used technology in bed at least once a week, and nearly 30 percent admitted they did so daily. If you’re one of the 70 million Americans who suffers from chronic sleep problems, your mobile device or TV set may be to blame.
