Prospective cohort analysis of cellphone use and emotional and behavioural difficulties in children

https://jech.bmj.com/content/70/12/1207

"Results

Children without emotional and behavioural difficulties at age 7 years, but who had cellphone exposures, had increased odds of emotional and behavioural difficulties at age 11 years..."

"These results did not materially change when early adopters were excluded, or when children with emotional and behavioural difficulties at age 7 years were included in the analysis."

Is it EMF? Screens? Software usage?

EMF could play a role.
