Another purpose of this study was to investigate the difference in academic performance and social well-being between those high school sophomores who (3) frequently, (4) neutral, and (5) infrequently engaged in television use, as well as those who were (6) frequently, (7) neutral, and (8) infrequently granted permission to engage in cell phone or computer use during family mealtimes. A quantitative, post-test only paper survey was administered to high school sophomores, between the ages of 15- and 17-years-old, enrolled in the 2017 health class, at Aurora High School in Aurora, Ohio. The survey contained nine sections with questions regarding family mealtime participation, family mealtime barriers, friends, parents, school environment, extracurricular activities, academic performance, and demographics.There were significant differences in social well-being between frequent and infrequent family mealtime participants, but no significant differences were found for academic performance. Results also indicated significant barriers—conflicting schedules, differing meal location preference, and permission to use cell phones and/or computers at the table—between frequent and infrequent family mealtime participants. No significant differences were found in social well-being or academic performance for frequent and infrequent television, cell phone, or computer users. 2017-12-12 English text Kent State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=kent1505831368467476 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=kent1505831368467476 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: some rights reserved.
