A famous Stanford experiment known as the "Marshmallow Test" in 1972 attempted to understand a link between delayed gratification and positive life outcomes by offering children to make a choice between immediate rewards or larger ones if they waited. I wonder what the results would be if we conducted this experiment in this era with a small change. Instead of the marshmallow, we keep their smartphone on the table with complete access to Wifi. Interesting insights to look forward to if this study was done: Is self-regulation likely to be weaker now compared to before? Are we more impulsive now than before? How has our reward desirability evolved over the years?

The Ofcom Children and Parents Media Use and Attitudes Report 2024 is out, revealing key trends. 60% of children aged 3-17 game. Children often use online gaming as a tool to communicate with their peers but the 2024 report tells us that 31% of children engage with strangers on these platforms. 68% of 8-17-year-olds use social media, messaging or video or voice calling apps with 65% of them regarding the online space as being beneficial to building or maintaining their friendships. 34% of 12-17-year-olds believe it is important that people can say what they want online, even if it upsets or offends others. With nearly half of children having used artificial intelligence technology, and twice as likely as adults to have done so. Read More - https://lnkd.in/eRzH7UD8

All-In with Chamath, Jason, Sacks & Friedberg: The Jonathan Haidt Interview Episode webpage: https://lnkd.in/ea5EiKCa Media file: https://lnkd.in/epVMYPFD Jonathan Haidt is a brilliant business psychologist at NYU . He is the author of the Coddling of the American mind about the impact of smartphone technologies on America's youth . Very interesting discussion here about how the #technology has been evolving to exploit innate #addictive behaviors. Everything from #socialmedia to #tiktok, etc. Very systematic engineering. #GenZ #millenials and #Zoomers are particularly at risk. In my youth, it was arcade games... just cost me quarters and time. Social media is robbing a generation of its soul.

Technology, AI, iPads, and Computers is how our world works. The world we have now. Students need to know about this world and how to navigate it successfully. One of the common pushbacks is SCREEN TIME. Which has taken on a life of its own, and become a barrier to 1:1 device adoption for a lot of schools and parents. SCREEN TIME is an outdated problem and should be ditched. Here's a great video explaining one of the misconceptions. https://lnkd.in/guKF4W4u
Screens are NOT the reason kids need glasses 👀

YOUNG CHILDREN GIVEN THE FREEDOM TO CAUSE HARM: Quote: New research conducted by classroom tech firm RM Technology, with 1,000 pupils, suggests that just under a third are using AI "to look at inappropriate things online". Comment: If I had a child under the age of 18, I would restrict them to a mobile phone that could only make voice calls and send text messages - NOT have access to the Internet. If they wanted to access the internet, then they could use a basic computer at home under supervision - simple! Our children are the future of our Nation, they should focus on education during their formative years ... not playing computer games, online gambling and other nonsense. What say you?

A new book is linking smartphones and social media to trends in youth mental health and a range of other phenomena including transgenderism. Many of these claims are novel and wholly untested in peer-reviewed research! There have been many hundreds of peer reviewed studies investigating how young people use technology and might be influenced. If you're curious about the state of science here, check out this recent episode of the Studies Show where the Tom Chivers and Stuart Ritchie take on this topic head on. #digitalwellbeing #adolescenthealth #evidencequality #peerreview https://lnkd.in/dqqyr85p
