Isikhathi Sesikrini Ngobudala
Isikhathi esichithwa ngempela ngama-toddler, izingane, intsha nabantu abadala ezikrinini nsuku zonke — kususelwa ocwaningweni olukhulu olumele abantu, kanti ngakunye kubhalwe ukuthi lelo nani lilinganisa ini.
Intsha eneminyaka engu-13–18 ichitha isilinganiso esingu 8h 39m ngosuku kusikrini sokuzijabulisa — cishe izikhathi ezine kunabantwana abaneminyaka engu-2–4 (2h 08m). Abantu abadala emhlabeni jikelele bachitha 6h 38m ku-inthanethi.
| Iqembu leminyaka yobudala | Ngosuku | |
|---|---|---|
| Ngaphansi kweminyaka emi-2 | 1h 03m | |
| Iminyaka engu-2–4 | 2h 08m | |
| Iminyaka engu-5–8 | 3h 28m | |
| Iminyaka engu-8–12 (izingane eziphakathi) | 5h 33m | |
| Iminyaka engu-13–18 (intsha) | 8h 39m | |
| Abantu abadala abaneminyaka engu-16–64 (emhlabeni wonke) | 6h 38m |
Izinombolo ezivelele
- Isikhathi sokubuka isikrini siye sibe ngaphezu kokuphindeka kathathu kusukela ebuntwaneni obuncane kuze kufike eminyakeni yesikole: izingane ezingaphansi kweminyaka emi-2 ziba isilinganiso se-1h 03m ngosuku, ezineminyaka emi-2–4 ziba 2h 08m, kanti ezineminyaka emi-5–8 ziba 3h 28m.
- Intsha ichitha isikhathi esiningi kakhulu: 8h 39m ngosuku usebenzisa isikrini ukuzijabulisa — futhi lokho kusewukuthi asikabali isikhathi abasichitha kumadivayisi esikole noma umsebenzi wesikole.
- Lokhu kukhuphuka kusanda kwenzeka. Phakathi kuka-2019 no-2021, izingane eziseminyakeni ephakathi zanyuka zisuka ku-4h 44m zaya ku-5h 33m ngosuku, kanti intsha isuka ku-7h 22m yaya ku-8h 39m.
- Kubantwana abancane inani lilonke cishe alishintshanga (2h 24m ngo-2020, 2h 27m ngo-2024), kodwa lokho ababukayo kushintshile: imidlalo ikhuphuke ngo-65% (23 → 38 imizuzu), kanti amavidiyo amafushane asuka emizuzwini engu-1 aya ku-14 ngosuku.
- Abantu abadala emhlabeni jikelele bachitha isilinganiso esingu-6h 38m ku-inthanethi. Isikhathi abasichitha ku-inthanethi sisakhula kubantu abangaphansi kweminyaka engu-45 — bachitha ngaphezu kwalokho ababechitha ngonyaka odlule — kanti abantu abaneminyaka engu-55 nangaphezulu bachitha kancane kakhulu kunabantu abancane.
Lokhu kuqhathaniswa kanjani neziqondiso?
Iziqondiso ze-World Health Organization zango-2019 zezingane ezingaphansi kweminyaka engu-5 zithi ukuchitha isikhathi esibukweni akunconyiwe ezinganeni ezingaphansi kweminyaka engu-2, futhi ezinganeni ezineminyaka engu-2 kuya ku-4, isikhathi sokuhlala ubuka isikrini kufanele sibe ingabi ngaphezu kwehora eli-1 ngosuku — okuncane kungcono. Ingane evamile engaphansi kweminyaka engu-2 (1h 03m) kanye naleyo eneminyaka engu-2–4 (2h 08m) kokubili kudlula lokho. Lesi siqondiso sikhuluma ngokuhlala ubuka; asisho ukuthi yonke iminithi yesikhathi esichithwa esikrinini iyingozi.
Lokho lezi zinombolo ezikukala — nalokho ezingakukali
Akukho cwaningo olulodwa olulandelela isikhathi esichithwa esibukweni kuyo yonke iminyaka ngendlela efanayo, ngakho leli khasi lihlanganisa ezintathu. Izingane 0–8: abazali babike ukusetshenziswa kwesikrini kwengane yabo nsuku zonke ocwaningweni lwase-U.S. olumele izwe lonke lwezingu-1,578 zemindeni (Common Sense Media, Agasti 2024). Izingane eziphakathi nendawo nentsha 8–18: abantu abangu-1,306 abasebancane babike ukusetshenziswa kwabo kwesikrini sokuzijabulisa — isikhathi sesikole nomsebenzi wasekhaya asifakiwe (Common Sense Media, ekwindla ka-2021). Abantu abadala 16–64: isikhathi esichithwa usebenzisa i-inthanethi kunoma iyiphi idivayisi, kusukela ocwaningweni lomhlaba wonke lwe-GWI oluhlanganiswe yi-DataReportal.
Lokho kusho ukuthi le migqa iyizilinganiso eziseduze, hhayi okufanayo ngokuphelele: isibalo sentsha asifaki ukusetshenziswa kwesikole, isibalo sabadala sibala kuphela isikhathi se-inthanethi futhi sihlanganisa isilinganiso samazwe amaningi, futhi konke lokhu kubikwe abantu ngokwabo. Abantu bavame ukungasiboni kahle isikhathi abasichitha esibukweni, ngakho lokhu kubheke njengamaphakathi angcono kakhulu atholakalayo, hhayi izilinganiso eziqondile. Amaqembu 8–12 no-5–8 ayahlangana eneminyaka engu-8 ngoba avela ocwaningweni oluhlukile.

Imibuzo evame ukubuzwa
Intsha evamile ichitha isikhathi esingakanani esikrinini?
Intsha eneminyaka engu-13–18 ichitha ngokwesilinganiso amahora angu-8 nemizuzu engu-39 ngosuku esikrinini sokuzijabulisa, ngaphandle kwesikhathi abasichitha kumadivayisi esikoleni noma emsebenzini wasekhaya. Izingane ezineminyaka engu-8–12 zona zichitha ngokwesilinganiso amahora angu-5 nemizuzu engu-33. Lezi zibalo zombili zivela ocwaningweni lwase-U.S. olumele izwe lonke olwenziwa kubantu abasha abangu-1,306 yi-Common Sense Media (2021).
Izingane ezincane zichitha isikhathi esingakanani esikrinini?
Izingane ezineminyaka engu-0 kuya kwengu-8 ziba nesilinganiso samahora angu-2 nemizuzu engu-27 ngosuku esikrinini: ezineminyaka engaphansi kwengu-2 cishe ihora eli-1 nemizuzu engu-3, ezineminyaka engu-2 kuya kwengu-4 amahora angu-2 nemizuzu engu-8, kanti ezineminyaka engu-5 kuya kwengu-8 amahora angu-3 nemizuzu engu-28, ngokusho kocwaningo lukaCommon Sense Media lwango-2025 olwenziwe emindenini engu-1,578 yase-U.S.
Lingakanani isikhathi sesikrini esinconywayo ezinganeni ezincane?
I-World Health Organization (2019) incoma ukuthi izingane ezingaphansi kweminyaka engu-2 zingabi naso nhlobo isikhathi sesikrini, kanti ezineminyaka engu-2 kuya kwengu-4 zingadluli ehoreni elilodwa ngosuku lesikhathi sesikrini lapho zihlezi zinganyakazi, yengeza nokuthi okuncane kungcono.
Isikhathi sesikrini esijwayelekile sabantu abadala singakanani?
Abasebenzisi be-inthanethi abaneminyaka engu-16–64 emhlabeni wonke bachitha cishe amahora angu-6 nemizuzu engu-38 ngosuku beku-inthanethi kuzo zonke izisetshenziswa, ngokusho kwedatha yocwaningo lwe-GWI embikweni we-DataReportal we-Digital 2025. Abantu abadala abancane bachitha isikhathi esiningi kunabantu abadala asebekhulile, kanti lesi silinganiso siyahluka kakhulu ngezwe.
Ingabe isikhathi sesikrini sezingane sifaka nesikole?
Kuncike ocwaningweni. Izibalo zentsha nabaseminyakeni ephakathi (8h 39m no-5h 33m) zibala ukuzijabulisa kuphela, futhi azifaki amadivayisi asetshenziswa esikoleni noma emsebenzini wasekhaya. Izibalo zezingane ezineminyaka engu-0-8 zibala yonke imidiya yesikrini, lapho umsebenzi wasekhaya uthatha imizuzu embalwa kuphela ngosuku.
