On the Tech Tent podcast this week, we ask whether there is
convincing evidence that spending hours staring at smartphones
and other screens is damaging the mental health of young people.
f you read news headlines - or indeed the government's Online
Harms White Paper - you might think that the case against screen
time was a no-brainer.
But this week, a study by the Oxford Internet Institute suggested
that it had little obvious effect on the mental wellbeing of
teenagers, even if they were spending hours staring at screens at bedtime.
"We look at general wellbeing," one of the researchers, Amy Orben, tells us. "We do not find a relationship
between digital screen use 30 minutes, one hour and two hours before bed and a decrease in wellbeing."
The research examined data from more than 17,000 teenagers in the UK, Ireland and the United States
