Tablets and smartphones may affect social and emotional development, scientists speculate
Using a smartphone or iPad to pacify a toddler may impede their ability to learn self-regulation, according to researchers.
In a commentary for the journal Pediatrics, researchers at Boston University School of Medicine reviewed available types of interactive media and raised "important questions regarding their use as educational tools", according to a news release.

The researchers said that though the adverse effects of television and video on very small children was well understood, society's understanding of the impact of mobile devices on the pre-school brain has been outpaced by how much children are already using them.
The researchers warned that using a tablet or smartphone to divert a child's attention could be detrimental to "their social-emotional development".
"If these devices become the predominant method to calm and distract young children, will they be able to develop their own internal mechanisms of self-regulation?" the scientists asked.
