Abstract:
OBJECTIVES:We examined the impact of ambient air pollution on television use among residents in Shanghai, China.
METHODS:Device-measured daily average duration of television use from January 2014 to December 2016 was obtained from a random sample of 300 households, and was matched to air pollution and weather data. We used an autoregressive moving-average model to estimate the association between air quality index (AQI) and television use.
RESULTS:There was a negative non-linear relationship between air pollution level and television use. Compared to the days when air quality was good (0≤AQI≤50), days with fair air quality (50
