What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

This study aims to explore the context of how children aged 3-5 use interactive electronic devices like tablets or smartphones in their everyday home environment. The researchers will look at the social, family, and environmental factors that shape this use. This study will use a qualitative ethnographic approach to explore how young children aged 3-5 use interactive electronic devices (IEDs) in the home. Data will be collected through questionnaires, exploring parent and child IED use, and video recordings of children in their natural home environment over one week, with three recording sessions of approximately four hours each. Following the recording period, selected clips will be reviewed with parents during a semi-structured interview to reflect on behaviours, routines, and context. These videos will help capture not just what children do, but also how they interact with others wh
