Abstract
  • This concept paper examines the sociocultural implications of screen exposure among preschool children, a growing concern in the digital age. As young children increasingly interact with electronic devices, the paper aims to explore how screen time influences their social development. It discusses the interplay between cultural practices, parenting styles, and societal norms in shaping children’s media consumption patterns. The paper also investigates the potential benefits and challenges of early screen exposure, including its impact on economic, social interactions, and overall well-being. Through a review of existing literature, this concept paper highlights key areas for future research and suggests strategies for balancing screen use with other developmental activities. The goal is to provide a comprehensive framework for understanding the broader sociocultural effects of screen exposure on preschool children, offering insights for parents, educators, and policymakers to promote healthier media habits.
