Late-night screen time puts teens' sleep and mental health at risk

50% of teenagers report their own cell poisoning, and in a new study by Child Development magazine, there is a possibility that self-esteem may decline with the use of mobile phones at night when anxiety and depression of puberty increases Is shown

Researchers point out that youth anxiety and depression rates have increased by 70% over the past few decades.

Psychologist and CBS news writer Lisa Damor told CBS this morning that the important thing about this research is to show "way" between nighttime use of mobile phones and sleep disturbance.

"We are already looking at related work as to whether there is a problem here, but this is because teenagers use mobile phones in the middle of the night to cause sleeping disorder, increasing depression, emotional vulnerability, And sometimes even cause symptoms. "

"Even if they are suited to their cell phones, they do need it to cause damage even if they interfere with sleep, even if they have had a good time," Damor said.

Damur said that the first thing a parent can do is to acquire certain customs to solve problems when children are young.

"Put the power strip in the bedroom and leave all the technology in parents room overnight, this is the default family habit," says Damor.

"Another thing is that we need to acquire good habits, we must be kind not only to our own sleeping but also to our mobile phones and our own skills Mr. Damur says.

The focus of this study is focusing on girls especially prone to insomnia. According to Damour, even before the emergence of technology, girls have less sleep than teenage boys.

"This new study has made us more concerned that sleep is already very fragile for teenage girls so we must make sure that technology does not interfere with sleeping of any teens of any teenager No, but we must pay special attention to these girls, as we are seeing a very high depression rate, "Damur said

Although young people may face a high risk of adverse health effects, Damor admits, "Everyone needs an electronic election prohibition order and we can say that these are universal rules think".

The strongest correlation with happiness is sleep - teenagers say they sleep happily more than 7 hours. Of course, this makes sense: sleep deprivation is a major risk factor for physical and mental health problems. Unfortunately, today's teenagers never slept in their teens. Perhaps because they spent more time on their mobile phones and other equipment. There is another way to see this chart - except for sleep, activities including other people are happily most closely related, activities involving solitude are unfortunately most relevant. That is why most teenagers are unfortunately involved in listening to the music they are doing alone, and the reason why concerts with other people are happily related. This is not unfortunately related music; it is how it is entertained. Here are some gray areas

Many American teenagers will not go to sleep too much at school all day, homework, extracurricular activities, sports, university. Since there is increasingly increasing evidence that young people are exposed to physical and mental health problems due to chronic sleep deprivation, school districts nationwide are increasingly asked to consider the timing of the future start. In Seattle, schools and city officials have recently shifted. The official start time of junior high school and high school will be changed from 7:50 am to 8:45 am, almost one hour from the academic year 2016 to 2017. This is not an easy thing, it means a change of schedule for extracurricular activities and bus route. However, the ultimate goal has been achieved. Teenagers take extra time to fall asleep

Use screen-based devices - Reduce sleep time using smartphones and other devices during sleep. According to a survey by the Vic Health and Sleep Health Foundation, a teenager who slept a smartphone 1 hour before bedtime sleeps for 21 minutes at night (45 minutes shorter than Monday's school).

According to AAP, adolescent young people have a sleep-wake cycle that essentially lasts up to 2 hours from adolescent onset. Teenagers get up late and are physically driven to sleep very late. However, sleep deprivation can lead to physical and mental health problems, increased risk of car accidents, and loss of academic performance.
