You selected a very relevant topic about screen time and its possible effects on focus and reaction time. Your project connects science with something that many people experience every day when using phones, computers, or video games. Tracking your reaction time over different time intervals was a creative way to investigate how screen use might affect alertness. This project shows good curiosity about how technology may influence our bodies and attention.
Congratulations on this thoughtful project. Your study looks at how screen time can affect focus and reaction time, an important topic today since many people use devices daily. Your work also suggests great ideas for future research with more trials and participants. Science cannot wait for what you have to experiment with and validate in the future. Wishing you all the best in your science research and exploration.
This project investigates an important real-world topic about how screen time can affect reaction time and focus. I liked how the experiment measured reaction time multiple times over a two-hour period and displayed the results in a clear data table and graph. The study shows a noticeable trend that reaction time worsens with longer screen exposure. Great effort exploring an issue that affects many students today.
