Study: Nighttime Phone Habits Linked To Sleep Loss

A growing body of research is raising concerns about how nighttime phone use is affecting teenage sleep patterns. Experts warn that excessive screen time, especially before bed and during the night, is linked to reduced sleep quality and shorter rest periods. Studies show many teens frequently stay active on their phones overnight, leading to interrupted sleep cycles and long-term health risks such as fatigue, reduced focus, and emotional stress. Researchers urge better digital habits and screen limits.
