Exposure to screens and children’s language development in the EDEN mother–child cohort

Abstract Studies in children have reported associations of screen time and background TV on language skills as measured by their parents. However, few large, longitudinal studies have examined language skills assessed by trained psychologists, which is less prone to social desirability. We assessed...
