A group of researchers at U-M are studying the relationship between digital media use and childhood growth and development<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jenny Radesky,\u00a0a developmental behavioral expert and pediatrician at C.S. Mott Children\u2019s Hospital, said smartphones and tablets are becoming a part of family routines. \u201cThis is an important conversation to have in today\u2019s society, but we must address it in a nonjudgmental way that is going to be very practical and helpful for parents,\u201d she said, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The researchers are approaching the central question through multiple studies. Radesky is focused on advertisements in children’s apps. Another researcher, Tiffany Munzer, a fellow at the U-M Center for Growth and Development, is studying the differences in toddlers’ and parents’ interactions with physical and electronic books.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
