Researcher links kids' computer use with test scores, behavior
A researcher from the University of Maryland tells parents, who worry about their children who spend too much time on computers, to worry not. A study was released saying that linked hours at the computer with achievement test scores and behavior and found little sign of harm for children ages six to twelve as they increased their screen time over a six-year period. There was adolescent achievement shown from the use of computers, and it doesn't have to be studying, it could be playing games. Computer use, overall for child, involves problem-solving, reading, and communicating, and these are skills that help children.
