A recent study published in the journal iScience, found:
Average time spent reading daily for pleasure now only 15 minutes per day
Only 17% of the population actively read for pleasure
Average time parents spend reading to their children now only 1 minute per day
Those that claim to regularly read to their kids only average 28 minutes per day
Those who spend an average of 5.5 hours per day working with a screen is up 20%
Most of this screen time is spent on facts and figures
Multiple studies have shown that the retention and understanding of content is much higher when reading printed text, versus reading it on a screen.
