CBS reviews research that is being done on the impact of screen time on youth

This is how CBS introduces this segment on their website: "If you have kids and wonder if all that time they spend on their smartphones endlessly scrolling, snapping and texting is affecting their brains, you might want to put down your own phone and pay attention"

They interview several researchers who are spearheading different studies on the impact of screen time on our brains and the impact of the "bells and whistles" to apps and how they draw in children.

The long term results from these studies will be interesting as right now, there are only hypothesis about the long term impacts.  

If you could formulate a research question about gambling, gaming or technology use what would it be?
