El móvil impacta en la calidad de vida como la renta o la educación
Un macroestudio de ‘The Lancet’ relaciona el uso problemático de las pantallas con mayor riesgo para la salud mental, trastornos del sueño y disminución de la actividad física
Mobile devices significantly affect quality of life, alongside income and education, according to recent research. Public health has long studied environmental factors impacting health and lifespan, with income, neighborhood, and education being key variables. Now, an international team of researchers suggests adding the digital environment to this list.
Various studies have warned about this for years, but new work using a very large database confirms it. The Lancet published three studies on Sunday, which are a review of 121 previous studies involving nine million people under 25 years old. The series found associations between problematic digital media use and increased risk of mental health damage, sleep disorders, and reduced physical activity.
