Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between maternal parenting behavior, preschoolers` smart device immersion tendencies, and their problem behaviors. A total of 277 mothers with 3- to 6-year-old children (130 boys and 147 girls) answered questionnaires. Data were analyzed by means of t-test, one-way ANOVA, correlation analyses, and regression analyses. The results are as follows: First, there were several significant differences in maternal parenting behavior and preschoolers` smart device immersion tendencies according to preschoolers` variables and maternal variables. Second, there were mostly significant correlations between maternal parenting behavior, preschoolers` smart device immersion tendencies, and their problem behaviors. Third, preschoolers` smart device immersion tendencies mediated the associations between maternal parenting behavior and preschoolers` problem behaviors. These results suggest excessive use of smart devices leads to maladaptive development in preschoolers.
