Abstract:
Digital media are central in our modern society and, as such, have an impact not only on teenagers but on most of us. Adolescents are among the most observed and stigmatized in terms of screens use. The encounter between the crucial developmental phase they cross and the neurobiological changes in their brains can be relatively « noisy ». Because of the pervasive nature of screens in our daily lives and the potential effect on adolescent health, it is essential for health professionals to offer a systematic assessment of media use when consulting with an adolescent. This article provides practical tools for screening the use of media in consultation with the -adolescent and illustrates with a clinical story what lies behind the screens.
