Technology and Digital Media (TDM) in Childhood and Adolescence | NICHD - Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development Technology and Digital Media (TDM) in Childhood and Adolescence Exposure to and use of TDM is becoming increasingly common from infancy through adolescence.
As use of TDM among these age groups has risen rapidly, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, families have faced a lack of research to guide decisionmaking about TDM use and exposure, including ways to minimize potential harm and maximize potential positive outcomes.
Better understanding of the effects of TDM on development across domains, as well as on overall health and well-being, can inform best practices for age-appropriate interactions with TDM. In response to the Children and Media Research Advancement (CAMRA) Act, which was included in the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2023 (P. L.
117-328), NICHD, through its Child Development and Behavior Branch , and the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) formed a collaboration to support research on the short- and long-term effects of TDM in infants, children, and adolescents.
The goals of this collaboration are to better understand the positive and negative impacts of exposure to and use of TDM on infant, child, and adolescent development and mental health; and to expand the evidence base to inform appropriate use as well as prevention and intervention programs.
To achieve these goals, the collaboration will prioritize scientifically rigorous studies that capture the complex relationship between TDM and development and that characterize the impacts of TDM across ages and developmental stages.
Modeling the complex relationships between TDM and development Improving measurement and study design Expanding participation in TDM studies Building evidence-based prevention and intervention programs Addressing the Impacts of Technology and Digital Media on Infants, Children, & Adolescents : NIH collaborated with experts to develop this research agenda to help guide work on addressing the impacts of TDM use and exposure on the development of infants, children, and adolescents.
