Thanasis Zovoilis/Getty Images(NEW YORK) For children under the age of 2, television screen time is associated with sensory differences later in toddlerhood, according to a new study.
Children who watched any television or DVDs at 12 months of age were twice as likely by 36 months to experience “atypical sensory processing” – that is, challenges in processing day-to-day sensory input – compared to others of that age. After 18 months of age, each extra hour of screen exposure was associated with around a 20% increased likelihood of sensory processing differences, according to the study, published Monday in JAMA Pediatrics.
For the study, researchers analyzed 1,500 caregiver surveys regarding their child s sensory preferences, such as sensitivity to, preference for, or avoidance of different noises, lights, and textures. The study only looked at children who watched television, not smartphones or tablets, because the survey data was gathered prior to 2014.

Health officials told ABC News all confirmed cases are among non-immune individuals.
The health department said it s actively tracking current cases and has listed several known exposure sites across the city, mostly at health care facilities and a daycare.
The first known case was identified as a patient who was admitted to the Children s Hospital of Philadelphia in early December, where three other non-immune children were exposed and later tested positive for the virus, health officials said. At least three of the cases have resulted in hospitalization.
Health officials recommend anyone who thinks they may have been exposed to quarantine alone at home and stay away from other people.
Measles is one of the most contagious infectious diseases and can easily spread from one case to dozens of other
