The goal of the experiment was to see if increasing opportunities of face-to-face interaction while eliminating face-to-screen interactions could improve nonverbal emotion-cue recognition in preteens. Uhls recruited 51 sixth graders from one public school in Southern California to participate in the experiment and 54 sixth graders from the same school were used as a control. During the pre-testing, Uhls found that both groups averaged spending four and a half hours each day texting, watching TV, and playing video games. Uhls and her team found that “children who were away from screens for five days with many opportunities for in-person interaction improved significantly in reading facial emotion.”
