Association of screen time with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder symptoms and their development: the mediating role of brain structure

The association among screen time, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptom development, and brain structure, and the neural mechanisms underlying the association between screen time and ADHD symptoms remain unclear. This study examines the relationships between the three using large-scale longitudinal data from the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) study.
