| Abstract | Odgoj djeteta u doba lako dostupnih internet sadržaja i tehnologije predstavlja izazove za roditelje zbog još nepoznatih dugoročnih učinaka na zdravlje djece. Dječji mozak se brzo razvija i upija sve informacije. Trenutne preporuke uključuju potpuno izbjegavanje ekrana do dobi od dvije godine, do sat vremena za djecu do pet godina i do maksimalno dva sata dnevno za djecu stariju od 6 godina. Preporuka je uz navedenu kontrolu sadržaja i „konzumiranje“ edukativnih sadržaja, što često nije pravilo. Smatra se da korištenje tehnologije ima svoje negativne i pozitivne učinke na razvoj djece. Tehnologija ima pedagoški, psihološki, socijalni i medicinski aspekt. Cijelo vrijeme se naglašava ograničeno i razumno korištenje te provođenje što više vremena u pokretu, slobodnoj igri bez tehnologije te kvalitetnom vremenu s obitelji. U svrhu izrade rada provedeno je istraživanje s ciljem ispitivanja stavova roditelja o utjecaju tehnologije na njihovu djecu, utvrđivanja količine vremena koju djeca provode koristeći tehnologiju i da li i kako tehnologija utječe na njihovo ponašanje s roditeljske perspektive. Sudjelovalo je 260 sudionika od čega su 245 (94,2%)ženskog spola. Rezultati upućuju da su u istraživanju sudjelovali uglavnom roditelji mlađe djece od 3-8 godina. Gotovo svi sudionci, njih 253 (97,3%) u svojim kućanstvima posjeduju pametne telefone, a televizore posjeduje 256 (98,5%) sudionika. 99 (38,1%) sudionika izjasnilo se kako njihova djeca provode na elektroničkim uređajima dnevno 1-2 sata. 53 (20,4%) sudionika izjasnilo se da im djeca provode 2-3 sata slobodnog vremena na elektroničkim uređajima. 90 (34,6%) sudionika ponekad, a 82 (31,5%) uvijek ograničava vrijeme provedeno uz ekrane. U prosjeku polovina sudionika 3,5 sata dnevno provodi bez tehnologije. U pitanju otvorenog tipa, 62 (24%) sudionika je opisalo kako tehnologija negativno utječe, a 80 (31%) sudionika opisalo je pozitivan učinak tehnologije na djecu. Ukupno 146 (56,1%) sudionika često ili uvijek razgovara o negativnim utjecajima tehnologije. Gotovo svi sudionci u svojim kućanstvima imaju tehnologiju. Premali dio roditelja razgovara s djecom o negativnim učincima tehnologije. |
