More more aspects of modern life thought be affected excessive Accordingly, this review document health effects viewing on adolescents. A narrative performed searchable databases. In total, 43 original articles were considered. Excessive correlated with increased risk for obesity other cardiometabolic factors, mental health, unhealthy dietary habits eating disorders, problems development child–parent relationships.

During early childhood, neuronal networks are highly susceptible to environmental factors. Previous research suggests that green space exposure is beneficial for cognitive functioning. Here, we investigate the associations between residential and behavioral problems development in children aged four six years.We included participating ENVIRONAGE birth cohort. Residential spaces were calculated based on high-resolution land cover data within several buffers (50-1,000 m) around residence. The children's behavior was assessed with Strengths Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) among 411 children. In addition, evaluate function, 456 completed tasks of Cambridge Neuropsychological Test Automated Battery (CANTAB). We used multivariate logistic linear regression models while accounting potential confounders covariables.An interquartile (IQR) increase 50 m associated a 38% (95% CI: 56;14) lower odds child having hyperactivity problems.

Early childhood learning is an important concern for the concept building of children. Students have been taught with traditional methods from beginning. However, these lack kids' attention. Application Augmented Reality (AR) in a way teaching can help students better engagement and learning. In this research, ABCD-AR mobile based application designed to overcome flaws education system. While designing AR applications, certain guidelines need be considered that cause problems kids their These may include but are not limited small screen size irregularity. Considering problems, study proposes 23 usability principles applications kids. identified validated by human experts. Furthermore, experiments carried out evaluate terms efficiency, effectiveness, learn-ability, user satisfaction engagement. The results implies developed game-based highly effective efficient because mean marks obtained before using lower (M = 4.97, SD 1.650) than after 7.97, 1.608).
