A Talker Research study of 2,000 Americans over 50 shows screen habits mirror younger generations, with participants averaging 22 hours weekly across devices. Centrum Silver commissioned the research to examine cognitive aging patterns. Television viewing dominates screen time, followed by web browsing, gaming and computer tasks. Daily activities include video calls, social media and tablet reading. While 39% consider screens “addictive” and 23% believe they “rot the brain,” most recognize benefits. Seventy-eight percent worry about cognitive decline, yet 58% say screens help them stay connected and 54% feel more informed. (Story URL)
