Abstract
A menudo las pantallas bloquean o interfieren en la comunicación interpersonal y familiar. En este sentido, los adultos desempeñan un papel importante en el fomento del uso responsable de la tecnología. Este estudio presenta un análisis de las normas que las familias imponen a sus hijos/as de 3 a 12 años para regular el uso del móvil dentro del hogar y examina la percepción que tienen de las consecuencias de retirar los smartphones a sus hijos/as y de cómo influye su uso en la socialización, conductas y rendimiento académico de los menores. Se utilizó un enfoque cuantitativo con un diseño no experimental basado en el método de encuesta en el que se empleó un muestreo por conveniencia. Los/as encuestados fueron 1.694 familias de la ciudad de Lugo (España). Los resultados apuntan a que el smartphone es el dispositivo más utilizado tanto en progenitores como en hijos, que 8 de cada 10 familias pone normas a sus hijos/as para regular el uso del móvil, entre ellas la prohibición de usar el móvil durante la comida o a la hora de dormir. Además, la mitad de las familias lucenses piensan que el uso del móvil no repercute en la socialización, en el rendimiento o en los cambios de conducta de los menores y 1 de cada 10 desconoce los posibles efectos que puedan tener. El acompañamiento, la supervisión y reducir el número de horas de uso de dispositivos móviles son aspectos claves para mejorar la comunicación familiar.
Screens often block or interfere with interpersonal and family communication. In this regard, adults play a crucial role in promoting the responsible use of technology. This study provides an analysis of the rules families impose on their children aged 3 to 12 to regulate mobile phone use at home, as well as explores their perceptions of the consequences of taking smartphones away from their children and how smartphone use influences children's socialization, behavior, and academic performance. A quantitative study with a non-experimental design was conducted using a survey method and convenience sampling. The respondents were 1.694 families from the city of Lugo(Spain). The results indicate that smartphones are the most used device by both parents and children, and that 8 out of 10 families set rules for their children to regulate mobile phone use, including prohibitions on using them during meals or at bedtime. Furthermore, half of the families in Lugo believe that mobile phone use does not affect socialization, academic performance, or behavioral changes in children, and 1 out of 10 are unaware of the potential effects. Overall, these findings highlight that parental accompaniment, supervision, and the reduction of time spent on mobile devices are key aspects for enhancing family communication.
