Does tv lower IQ?

Even with the knowledge gained from research focused on television's ability to teach specific skills, the medium is frequently castigated for interfering in the education of children. Achievement, intellectual ability, grades, and reading show complex relationships with television viewing. For example, the relationship between television viewing and academic performance is not clear cut. Children who spend a great deal of time watching television do poorly in school but children who spend a moderate amount of time with TV perform better than non-viewers. The small negative relationship between IQ and television viewing masks some important subgroup differences, such as age (high IQ is positively correlated with viewing until the teens) and gender (with the negative relationship holding stronger for boys than for girls). Reading and television viewing are positively correlated up to a threshold of about ten hours of viewing per week. Only when television viewing rises above a certain level does it seem to be related to less reading. Overall, the data suggest that television has a small adverse effect on learning.

Are 60 inch tv better than 50 inch tv?

Depends. The tv size should really depend on the viewing distance. Take this though into consideration. 19inches all the way to 90inches all have the same amount of pixels. 1920X1080. So think of it as a stretchy fabric, if you sit too close to a large HD screen the screen wount seem that "HD" anymore. So basically gauge the ideal viewing distance and buy a tv size that fits that.


I want to buy a T.V which is better LCD or Plasma and why?

The answer to this question depends on the viewing environment and what you are going to be viewing on the TV. There are a few questions I would need answered like: 1) The lighting in the room. 2) What components are you going to be using on the TV. 3) Are you going to be playing video games on the TV. If you aren't able to answer these questions for me then the safe bet is an LCD.

Does allowing young children to watch television pre-dispose them to ADD?

RIDICULOUS. The risk of developing ADD does not lie in the viewing of TV. Parents need to be conscious about raising their children and act responsibly. If parents use television as a babysitter or as a means to shirk their responsibility to teach and supervise their children, they are more at risk of suffering from neglect.

Do you agree with WINN that excess TV viewing is a problem of the same magnitude as an addiction?

No, I am not agree that TV viewing is a problem of same magnitude as that of addiction. This is true that excess TV viewing is not good for us, but it could not be stated that it is an addiction. Viewing TV is a pleasurable habit which can be lessen. In her essay, Winn has just took the negative effects of TV viewing while we all know very well that TV viewing is not only pleasurable activity but a great source of information and has many other positive effects on our lives. On the other hand drug addiction gives pleasure at the time of taking, after that it ruins the life. So i cannot say that TV viewing is a problem of same magnitude as an addiction.
