家長和幼兒科技產品使用現況與幼兒專注力之關聯

The Relations among Technology Used by Parents, Preschoolers, and Preschoolers' Concentration Performance

本文旨在探討（一）家長和學齡前幼兒科技產品的使用現況，（二）家長與幼兒科技產品的使用關聯，以及（三）幼兒性別、年齡、使用各類科技的時間、原因、內容對幼兒專注力的預測。本研究採分層叢集抽樣，以4－7歲之幼兒與其家長共607組為研究對象，由家長回答「家長與幼兒科技產品使用現況」，教師針對參與幼兒評量「幼兒專注力表現」。本研究將科技產品分為三類：電腦、行動裝置以及電視。研究結果發現（一）家長較常使用平板電腦與手機等行動裝置，主要是與人互動、工作或搜尋資訊、看新聞以及增加新知，較少用科技產品從事看影片或玩遊戲等娛樂，幼兒則較常使用電視，主要為看影片；（二）愈常用科技產品玩遊戲的家長，愈可能用科技當安撫幼兒的工具，幼兒也愈常用科技玩遊戲；（三）家長愈常以手機或平板電腦安撫幼兒情緒、避免幼兒吵鬧，幼兒專注力表現愈差。

This study aims to investigate how technology products were used by parents and by their young children, and to examine how children's use of technology predicts their concentration performance. Questionnaires were designed. Parents were asked to reveal how technology was used by children and by themselves, and teachers were asked to evaluate young children's concentration performance. There were 607 parents and their children, aged 4-7, participated this study. In this study, technology was categorized into 3 categories: computer, portable devices, and TV. The results are as follows: (1) Parents spend most time on Tablet and cell phone for social interactions and for work, young children spend most time watching TV. (2) There are significant correlations between the parents' and children's use of technology. (3) Parents frequently use portable devices as tools to pacify children, their children tend to perform worse on concentration.
