Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Impact of exposure to television & electronic devices on attention in children.

    -Assessment of attention by Application of Gilliam 1995 for ADHD (numerical) (continous number) (\>131 above high )-(130-131 high )-(111-130 above average )- (90-110 average)-(80-89 below average)-(70-79 low)-(\<69 very low)

    baseline

  • Exposure to television & electronic devices

    -Assess time of exposure by asking parents about Age of onset of screen exposure( in years)\& duration of screen exposure( by hours).

    baseline
