The problem
Intervention: Comparison of task performance (on computer and smartphone) across different media multitasking behavioral types
Who it was tested with: 154 children and adolescents in three age groups: 7-10 years, 11-13 years, and 14-16 years.
Children or communities are compared with a group that did not receive the intervention, or followed over years. This is the design that best separates what the intervention did from everything else that changed.
"Quasi-experimental research, which included the performance of tasks on a computer and a smartphone, was conducted among children in three groups aged 7-10 years, 11-13 years, 14-16 years (N=154)." The study compared predefined groups with different media multitasking behaviors on standardized tasks, allowing for between-group comparisons of performance outcomes.
The quasi-experimental design lacks random assignment to groups. The study does not clarify how children were categorized into multitasking types or whether the task types were ecologically valid. No information is provided about potential confounding variables such as age effects within groups or prior experience with devices.
