Dinowitz questions DOE on research behind 30 and 45-minute screen time limits
Dinowitz asks Laura Lai to share the research supporting the specific 30 and 45-minute limits. Lai says she doesn't have citations on hand but offers to send them, and Dinowitz requests all cited research be posted publicly.
I want to go back to the research, Lorelai.
You were talking about the research that was done to support the use of 30 minutes or recommended 30 minutes from 3 to 5, 45 minutes, 6 through 8.
Can you share with the committee what that research was?
I don't have the research sitting in front of me, Chair, but I'd be happy to send you a list of citations with all of the research that we used.
You put on your Screen Time and AI Policy website two documents, the Brookings Institute and the American Association of Pediatrics, I believe.
Oh, yeah.
Those, yeah.
Would you also, or will the DOE put all of the research that they cited on that website as well?
We'd be happy to look at doing that, absolutely.
A number of those citations, though, the two that you mentioned from Brookings and American Academy of Pediatrics, especially the Brookings, has within that document quite a number of those citations as well.
So we can take a look at the ones that perhaps are not covered by Brookings, which was a meta review of all of that research and see what we can provide.
Yeah, they were much less in favor of screen time than I think the TUE's policy, if I read that document correctly.
