Preferred term
computer use and cognitive skills
Definition
- Does computer use affect cognitive skills? The reasoning behind this question is that use of a tool such as the computer requires specific cognitive skills, so repeated use of the tool may have an effect on those skills. Research addressing this question has mostly focused on the informal uses of the computer within the home, such as computer and video games.
