6% of a standard deviation sounds like very little to me, but it's hard for me to grok what that actually means.

- viraptor 1y agoOn an IQ test for example that would be just under 1 point of difference.

Certainly not an overwhelming result, compared to the subjective reactions how phones and screen are “obviously” destroying kids lives/attention spans/ability to hold a conversation, etc.
