Questão 18SEDUC-CE·Diversas·2018Inglês

Mark the option that is in agreement with Dr. Twenge’s work.

AI do think that the concerns Twenge raises are valid. I have her same concerns. I constantly hear from parents who are struggling with their own version of these problems: Teens who are too busy online to come out of their room. Young adults who may be remarkably adept in front of a computer, but lack some of the practical life skills they’ll need when they stop away from the keyboard.BTwenge reviews only those studies that support her idea and ignores studies that suggest that screen use is not associated with outcomes like depression and loneliness or that suggest that active social media use is actually associated with positive outcomes like resilience.CThe studies Twenge reviews largely ignore social contexts and how people differ, instead reporting only average effects and correlations. Twenge should have taken into account these sorts of factors to maybe conclude that "moderate use of digital technology is not intrinsically harmful and may be advantageous in a connected world” just as Andrew K. Przybylski and Netta Weinstein did.DThere is no plausible reason to think that smartphones and social media may have only negative effects on kids. Kristelle Lavallee, Content Strategist at the Center on Media and Child Health out of Boston Children's Hospital, told me in an interview about many of the beneficial effects of social media on adolescent development.

Questão 19SEDUC-CE·Diversas·2018Inglês

A correct conclusion for the text above would be the following:

AFor these reasons, the Twenge’s study demands that libraries prioritize reading for pleasure -- if book users are to be both competent and willing readers.BDue to the scarcity of researches in this field and to do justice to the complexity of the issue, Twenge found it necessary to examine other issues, such as reading motivation and choice.CIn conclusion, reading for pleasure has been poorly explored in America but Twenge’s study proves undoubtedly that promoting reading can have a major impact on children and adults and their future. “The imbalance between reading and television, for example, has a significant effect on academic results”, the APA researchers found.DThese findings give Twenge, as a university faculty member, a new perspective on the next generation as they approach college age. “Think about how difficult it must be to read even five pages of an 800-page college textbook when you've been used to spending most of your time switching between one digital activity and another in a matter of seconds”.
