Abstract

Transition from Screen time to Screen-Free time (TSSF) refers to stopping video-watching and transiting to other offline activities. Motivated from priming effect, we explore how video reality-level, which is the degree of using real elements in the video such as the backgrounds and characters, can affect children's TSSF. Children aged 3-10 were assigned to watch videos with three different reality-levels: low, mid, and high. A total of 83 parent-child dyads participated in a two-week between-subject experimental study. We analyzed four different aspects of TSSF: transition rate, problematic behavior, screen time dependence, and rule compliance. Our experiment showed that compared to children who watched low-reality videos, children who watched high-reality videos exhibited more successful TSSF in three aspects: transition rate, problematic behavior and screen time dependence.
