Abstract in brief

  • The study examines how different types of electronic media, like smartphones and social media, impact sleep quality, highlighting negative effects from media usage.
  • The analysis involved 55 studies with over 41,000 participants and categorized media usage into "general use" and "problematic use," finding that both have significant adverse effects on sleep.
  • Results indicate general use decreases sleep quality significantly, while problematic use is linked to increased sleep issues, with variations based on cultural differences.

For example, the article says "98% concurred that heavy smartphone use correlates *strongly* with sleep disturbances". But meta-analyses suggest the relationship is r ≤ 0.25, which is a 'small to medium' correlation. So the 98% are mistaken. https://t.co/mPUKMzkbFp #smma https://t.co/KQ7FvABw01
