Abstract

New generations maintain a very close daily relationship with screens (television, Internet, video consoles and mobile telephones). A lot of their leisure time centres on these means of communication with a double purpose: either for playing or communicating with others. These are the two dimensions (recreational and social) that dominate the choice of these types of communication in order to entertain oneself and/or establish relationships with their groups of friends. The trend in the consumption of screens has distanced television from its previous monopoly and has meant that it has to share young people’s leisure time with other advanced technological supports. The health of children and adolescents involves educating them towards a healthy and responsible consumption of all screens, in a balanced way as regards dosis and planning, and with criteria as regards the content that could endanger them and the level of their cognitive development.
