Good Phone Use of These People's Mental Health

A new study has revealed that adults over 50 years of age who regularly use telephones, computers, and tablets have 42 percent less risk of cognitive injuries and 74 percent less mental decline than those who use them less or no has reported AOL.

This may relate to the fact that using technology challenges the brain and helps maintain social relationships. However, researchers point out that not every use of the screen is useful and that other studies are needed to understand how much time and use are better, and whether these benefits are also for young people or children, it transmits KOHA

It has often been reported that wise phones are bad for health. But the new study suggests that using the telephone at a certain age can be useful to the brain.

The study, published in Nature Human Behavior, has analyzed data from 57 previous studies on technology and mental health, involving more than 400,000 people over 50 years of age worldwide. The average age of the participants was 69 years old, and all had access to cognitive skills or had a diagnosis of degeneracy.

Researchers found no evidence that phone use increases the risk of declining cognitive skills. Rather, they found that telephone, computer, or tablet use was linked to lower risk of cognitive failure.

Why is phone use after 50 useful?

The study does not explain exactly why, but experts have some theories.

According to neurologist Amit Sachdev, using technology requires learning and involvement in cognitive skills.

One of the best ways to reduce the risk of declining age-anticipated cognitive skills is the active use of the brain during life”, he said.

Neurologist, Cliff Segil, explained that technology activates certain senses at once.

<x0) The use of telephone or email is a daily brain exercise, and the loss of these capabilities can be as severe as the loss of the driving ability or managing finances”, Segil said.

Professor Michael Sullin has added that digital devices often include distractions, such as advertising or advertising, and trying to concentrate among them is a mental challenge.

He has also emphasized the social aspect.

“Vetmia and social isolation are linked to faster declines of cognitive capabilities in the elderly, while phones help preserve contacts through video messages or calls to”, he said.

Phones also serve as memory aids - for example, for memory of medical or birthday terms - which helps preserve social relationships and in caring for general health.

Experts warn, however, that not every use of the screen is useful.

The passive vision of videos for hours does not stimulate the brain in the same way.

Do young people also benefit?

Maybe so, but this is still being studied. According to Scullin, everything depends on how the phone is used, whether it is used only to view content or activities that require active engagement.

“Finds suggest that digital devices are neither entirely good nor entirely bad, as well as when used”, Sculin said. /Periscope
