Investigating Parental Influence on Technology Use and Social-Emotional Development in Preschoolers (Parents)
ATTENTION PARENTS: I am conducting research as part of the requirements for a Doctor of Philosophy degree at Liberty University. The purpose of my research is to examine the relationship between parental involvement and excessive technology use among younger children, and how these factors may relate to children’s social emotional development. To participate, you are a parent or legal guardian aged 18 or older, be the parent or legal guardian of a child between the ages of 2 and 5, and the child (aged 2 to 5) has regular access or uses technology (e.g., tablets, smartphones, or computers) in the home. Individuals are not eligible to participate if their child (aged 2 to 5) has a diagnosis of a neurodevelopmental, emotional, or mood disorder (e.g., ADHD, Autism, DMDD, GAD, etc.) or receives special education/Section 504 services for emotional or behavioral support. Please note that only one parent/legal guardian per family will be eligible to participate. Participants will be asked to complete an anonymous online survey, which will take approximately 20 minutes to complete. If you are interested and eligible, please click the link provided to access the survey. An information sheet is provided on the first page of the survey, and participation is completely voluntary. No identifying information will be collected, and your responses will remain anonymous.
