Conclusions


Research on the brain-health consequences of digital technology is beginning to elucidate how these novel devices and programs can both help and harm brain function. Their frequent use heightens ADHD symptoms, interferes with emotional and social intelligence, can lead to addictive behaviors, increases social isolation, and interferes with brain development and sleep. However, specific programs, videogames, and other online tools may provide mental exercises that activate neural circuitry, improve cognitive functioning, reduce anxiety, increase restful sleep, and offer other brain-health benefits. Future research needs to elucidate underlying mechanisms and causal relationships between technology use and brain health, with a focus on both the positive and negative impact of digital technology use.

If people aren’t suppose to discuss and possibly disagree, why post?

I am open to discussion and disagreement. Look around the thread and tell me how many opening comments you see promoting discussion or civil disagreement.

What do you think is the purpose of the showerthoughts community?

To share "Shower thoughts".

Crazy concept I know.

It is really ignorant to assume that 1) All "Western" culture is the same and 2) "Eastern" culture doesn't have numerous issues itself.

The point is the problem is cultural globally. Everyone has problems, and they are all rooted in their cultures.
