@avantgame @MarcLaidlaw isn’t the study over two years? Age 5 to age 7. Or did I misread?

@RBMills@MarcLaidlaw 10 years research, kids studied from 9 months old to 7 years old -
@avantgame@RBMills@MarcLaidlaw I read it as the Millennium Cohort Study was 10 yrs long, but this study looked only at ages 5 & 7. Right? -
@WillOremus@RBMills@MarcLaidlaw yes you're right the original article I read wasn't quite clear, the full scientific paper clarifies that! -
@avantgame@MarcLaidlaw Thanks. I examined the paper more closely here, in case you want to update your followers:http://www.slate.com/blogs/future_tense/2013/11/18/uk_study_videogames_not_bad_for_kids_it_s_more_complicated_than_that.html … -
@WillOremus@MarcLaidlaw I might write up my own response to link to, one that is slightly less snarky :) -
@avantgame@MarcLaidlaw Great. I look forward to it!

@avantgame You might want to read the study you claim indicates "no" problems for video game use in children. http://adc.bmj.com/content/early/2013/02/21/archdischild-2011-301508.full.pdf … -
@sbuehler I disagree. TV time was associated with problems, not videogames. -
@avantgame Quote from study "Exposure to either TV or games for three or more hours was associated with increases in all problems" -
@sbuehler my understanding of that article is that they are attributing the problems to the TV screen time not the videogame time. -
@avantgame The authors claim to control for socio factors when pres the "no impact" result. W/out these adjust data show neg impact. -
@avantgame Its up to you to decide if this is valid, or if studying video game habits of UK 5 and 7 yo can warrant a claim about "children"

@avantgame whom did they study? For me, playing 6 hours a day at one point definitely changed something in my life -
@true_droid you can click on the link you know and find out :) -
@avantgame right, sorry for being too hasty

@avantgame did they compare to 11000 kids who didn’t get screen time? -
@converted2mac You should read the study :) -
