New paper from Norway: Banning smartphones in school - significantly decreased doctors visits for psychological symptoms and diseases among girls - reduced bullying among both genders - improved girls’ GPA and attendance rates - largest effect sizes were among the poorest kids
Some helpful critical engagement by @ClareMorellEPPC with @JonHaidt in this review of "The Anxious Generation" for @PublicDiscourse. "All of childhood, not just the school day, can and should be phone-free." thepublicdiscourse.com/2024/04/94753/
So many educators are writing to me to say: It's not just the phones; it's the chromebooks and ipads and "free" edtech, all of which distracts more than it teaches. Jessica Gross at NYT summarizes their concerns calls for a "ruthless re-evaluation." nytimes.com/2024/04/24/opi…
I finally saw the final cut of the movie version of The Coddling of the American Mind. So powerful, to see four college students overcoming the 3 Great Untruths. Thanks @CourtneyBalaker & @tedbalaker for your brilliant adaptation. thecoddlingmovie.com/p/recap-specia…
Thank you @StevenHeine4. Yes, Anxious Generation is a book about cultural and social psychology. Rapid changes in enculturation processes can produce rapid changes in.... everything.

@JonHaidt @academia_shores Enjoyed your interview this morning on the @NewYorker radio hour. 🧐
@JonHaidt @FreeRangeKids My wife and I read The Coddling of the American Mind and are now homeschooling. Kids have zero addiction to devices, play classic video games, read classic literature, want to learn science, and have legit math chops on their own pace. 1-on-1 tutoring is the future (and past!).
El nuevo libro de @JonHaidt no ha hecho más que demostrar que no hay una postura unánime entre la comunidad científica en relación al uso de las pantallas y los menores, y los daños que provocan. De hecho, se ha creado el debate tecnológico de la década. Hay tantos argumentos…
The Internet and social media is taking time away from childhood. What would children be doing if they weren’t online? Probably playing, failing, trying again, socializing, basically learning and adapting constantly. People can argue that children learn things 1/5 @JonHaidt
@JonHaidt @academia_shores Your example here Prf. Haidt is more important than any research and conclusions you are presenting: calling out for truth, for potential elenchus - refutations - so that you can further your movement towards truth. That's the crown jewel of critical thinking. It's Hero Work.
@JonHaidt @academia_shores Some people show their ass. Jonathan shows his class. What a guy, Dr. Haidt!
@JonHaidt @academia_shores Admirable openness and willingness to listen.
@JonHaidt @academia_shores Now this seems to be the way we all can grow - position -response . . . Repeat as needed. No name calling - fact checking — well done!
Many kids are afraid to try something new, and their parents don’t have confidence that they can do something new, all of which leads to more overprotection, which leads to more anxiety. —@JonHaidt
@JonHaidt @academia_shores Positive things happening here in Ireland
In "The Anxious Generation", New York University social psychologist Jonathan Haidt makes the strongest case yet that smartphones & social media are doing massive harm to the mental wellbeing of young people. My review: smh.com.au/culture/books/… #auspol @JonHaidt @nyuniversity
@goodreads The Anxious Generation by @JonHaidt and Age of Revolutions by @FareedZakaria I’m so hooked by their storytelling.
Such sad news. He was a brilliant philosopher who had a profound influence on cognitive science. And he was hugely supportive to young scholars—including me, long ago. A great loss. dailynous.com/2024/04/19/dan…
I’m grateful that I went to school during a time when phones weren’t allowed at all in classrooms or hallways These days the only notifications I have turned on are for iMessage and phone calls, nothing else is important enough for me to break my focus or shift my attention…
Adolescents get 237 notifications per day (median). 97% of them use their phones during the school day. There is not much attention left over for everything else. This is madness. Schools can give them all 7 hours off, 5 days a week. Go phone free. nbcnews.com/health/health-…
In a few years @JonHaidt will need to write a new book on the adverse impact of smartphones on this generation of under-7s. Profoundly depressing.
New report: in the UK, nearly a quarter of 5-7 year olds have a smartphone. 38% of that age group is now using social media. Many UK parents are "resigned." But many others are rising up and taking collective action. smartphonefreechildhood.co.uk delaysmartphones.org.uk
@JonHaidt @nickgillespie @reason I love listening to you on the long form. Can’t wait to dig into the new book
