Abstract
This study examined whether increased use of electronics exacerbated the relationship between callous-unemotional (CU) traits and externalizing behaviors in preschoolers. Regression analyses demonstrated that increased use of electronics seemed to attenuate the relationship between CU traits and aggressive externalizing behaviors. Clinical implications are further discussed.
