Chronic media multitasking causes memory loss or impaired memory performance in healthy adults.

the verdict
INSUFFICIENT LEANING
Recorded sources
4 sources for · 0 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that chronic media multitasking causes memory loss or impaired memory performance in healthy adults?

Unclear. The relevant items report associations between heavy media multitasking or screen use and memory or cognitive difficulties, but they are correlational, hedged, or drawn from non-adult or qualitative samples; none establishes that chronic media multitasking causes memory loss in healthy adults.
