- 요약Children are spending most of their screen time watching online video content on YouTube. Although seemingly like television, online video viewing raises new concerns tied to various factors that create a completely different experience than that of its predecessor. Unfortunately, the lion's share of children and media use research to date has focused on traditional television, and existing YouTube-focused research has mostly overlooked younger children. To begin bridging the research gap on children and YouTube use, this dissertation presents a novel interdisciplinary, multi-method research design to explore the online video consumption experiences of thirty children between 4 to 5 years old. Through a semi-naturalistic structured observation during platform engagement in the home, alongside qualitative interviews and self-report methods, this dissertation provides novel insights and a multifaceted understanding of young children's user behaviors, emotional responses, and perspectives on YouTube use. First, based on a mixed methods analysis of the user behaviors during YouTube use captured via the device's screen recording, I report on how young children navigate the YouTube platform, interact with its interface and features, and their content consumption. Next, employing a multi-method approach to capture and analyze children's emotions during YouTube use, I report on whether their emotional responses differ between content types and user viewing behaviors, and what overall emotional shift patterns they experience. Lastly, drawing on the qualitative analysis of semi-structured interviews and survey responses, I report on child and parent perspectives, attitudes, and practices in the context of online video consumption. The secondary goals of this dissertation are to: (1) explore the transferability of existing theories and methodologies in the study of children and media use/effects as applied to online video services; and (2) explore the use of methodological triangulation and a novel psychophysiological measure (facial analysis) to address methodological limitations and difficulties in the study of children's digital media use. Results from these studies will shed light onto young children's online video consumption experiences and hopefully encourage parents, educators, pediatricians, and policymakers to work towards fostering healthier and positively conducive media environments for children.
