Abstract
MANCOVA analyses showed that background media exposure during earlier childhood (ages 2 to 4) was associated with changes in cognitive performance at school-entry age (age 5). Follow-up regressions, indicate that high indirect exposure to screens in early childhood is associated with poorer vocabulary, number knowledge and attention at age 5.
