CFYS Research Fellow, Ulrich Mueller, launches study about the impact of smartphones on children’s lives

CFYS Research Fellow, Ulrich Mueller, has launched a unique study looking at the impact of smartphones on children’s lives. The study seeks participants in middle and high schools who routinely use social media tools like Instagram, Snapchat, YouTube and Facebook. Researchers Sam Liu and Ulrich Mueller want to assess whether a school’s cellphone policy affects students’ use of electronic devices, their leisure activity, sleep, friendship, attention and grades.
