G) Hancoxs team found that watching TV at an early age had the most effect on graduating from college. An interesting finding was that although teenage viewing was strongly linked to leaving school without any qualifications, it was earlier childhood viewing that had the greatest impact on getting a degree, he said. This suggests that excessive television in younger children has a long-lasting adverse effect on educational performance.
H) In the third paper, Frederick J. Zimmerman and Dr. Dimitri A. Christakis from the University of Washington report that, for very young children, watching TV can result in lower test scores in mathematics, reading recognition and reading comprehension. We looked at how much television children watched before age 3 and then at ages 3 to 5, Zimmerman said. We found that for children who watched a small amount of TV in the earlier years, there was co nsider able beneficial effect compared to children who watched a lot of TV.
I) For children aged 3 to 5, the effect was not as clear, Zimmerman said. There were some beneficial effects of watching TV on reading, but no beneficial effects for math or vocabulary, he noted. The worst pattern was to watch more than three hours of TV before age 3. Those kids had a significant disadvantage compared to the other kids. Parents should follow the American Academy of Pediatrics recommendation, which is no TV for children under 2, Zimmerman said. Personally, I feel the cutoff should be children under 3, because there is just not any good content for children under 3.
