A Longitudinal Study of Psychophysiological Indicators in Pupils Users of Mobile Communications in Russia (2006-2017): Children Are in the Group of Risk
Abstract
Overview
This research assesses the chronic exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic fields (RF EMF) from mobile phones and their impact on children's central nervous system, including changes in their cognitive and psychophysiological functions over a span from 2006 to the present in Russia.
Findings
- Confirmed negative effects of mobile phone radiation on auditory and visual systems, fatigue, performance, and attention and memory parameters.
- Statistical improvements with the use of safe modes like headphones, speakerphone, and SMS/MMS.
Conclusion
The study concludes that prolonged exposure to RF EMF significantly impacts children, putting them at risk. It suggests parental awareness and controlled usage as preventive measures against adverse outcomes.
