| Watching TV is bad for your child |
三歲前看電視有損大腦 |
| Top English psychologist Dr. Aric Sigman said we must prevent children under three from watching television or risk irreversibly damaging their health, the Daily Mail reported. About 80% of brain development happens before we are three, and screen time at this age seems to be particularly damaging. So there needs to be a recommended daily allowance for screen time as we have with salt and fat. |
據(jù)英國(guó)《每日郵報(bào)》報(bào)道，英國(guó)頂尖心理學(xué)家埃里克·西格曼呼吁，孩子3歲之前應(yīng)該禁看電視，否則會(huì)給孩子健康造成不可逆轉(zhuǎn)的危害。孩子在3歲之前大腦發(fā)育完成大約80%，所以這個(gè)年齡段的孩子看電視對(duì)大腦的損害最嚴(yán)重。因此，有必要像限制食鹽和脂肪攝入量一樣對(duì)兒童每天看電視時(shí)間實(shí)行量化限制。 |
| Research suggests it is not what you watch, it is what age you start and how long you watch for that has a detrimental effect. In many ways Teletubbies, or any other educational program for children, could be as physiologically damaging as a violent video game. |
研究表明，看電視對(duì)兒童健康造成危害，關(guān)鍵問(wèn)題不是電視節(jié)目?jī)?nèi)容，而是開(kāi)始看電視的年齡以及看電視時(shí)間的長(zhǎng)短。從多方面看，《天線寶寶》等很多兒童教育電視節(jié)目對(duì)兒童生理上造成的傷害與暴力游戲幾乎沒(méi)有區(qū)別。 |
| In addition, a new study from the Heart and Diabetes Institute, Melbourne, found that each daily hour of TV viewing in adulthood was associated with an 18% increase in death from heart disease. Those who watched four or more hours were 80% more likely to suffer a fatal heart condition. |
此外，墨爾本心臟與糖尿病研究所的一項(xiàng)新研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，成年人每天看電視1小時(shí)，心臟病死亡危險(xiǎn)增加18%；每天看電視4小時(shí)以上，致命心臟病危險(xiǎn)增加80%。 |
