Abstract in brief

  • This systematic review investigates the link between sedentary behavior, particularly leisure screen time, and various mental health issues like depression, anxiety, and loneliness among adolescents, highlighting that increased screen time is associated with poorer mental health.
  • The review analyzed 32 studies and found strong evidence connecting more than 2-3 hours of daily leisure screen time with higher depressive symptoms and psychological distress, with some gender differences noted.
  • Despite these findings, the review points out gaps in the current research, such as inconsistent measures of mental health and screen time, reliance on self-report data, and the need for future studies to better understand causality and develop interventions.]

@Anti There's not much on the effects of staying inside, but going outside to exercise/socialise has been shown a thousand times over to improve mental health. Also, sedentary lifestyles (which we're all experiencing RN) are not very good for you - https://t.co/2TldY6Hp7t
