| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺灣師範大學 === 人類發展與家庭學系 === 106 === The current study investigated children’s media usage, and examined the relationship between media usage, self-regulation, early literacy, and motor development. This study also used age, gender, and social economic status (SES) as moderators. Questionnaire was used to understand children’s media usage. The present study used head-to-toes task to understand children’s self-regulation. Early literacy skills included print concept and word recognition. Comprehensive Developmental Inventory for Infants and Toddlers (CDIIT) was administered to understand children’s motor development. The participants were 101 typically developing children aged 48 to 67 months old. The following are the four main findings of this study: (1) there was a positive correlation between media usage and SR2 (the second part of self-regulation) after excluding outliers (2) there were negative correlations between media usage and gross motor, body-movement coordination, and motor total (3) there was a negative correlation between media usage and basic hand use after excluding outliers (4) social economic status (SES) negatively moderated the prediction of media usage to sum of self-regulation. These findings indicated that (1) the more children use media, the better self-regulation they might show (2) the more children use media, the poorer their gross motor, body-movement coordination, motor total and basic hand use might be (3) higher social economic status may reduce the effectiveness of media usage on self-regulation.
