McCall Booth studies how digital media and screen use shape child development and family life, particularly during infancy and early childhood. The work examines how parents' own media habits influence parenting behaviors, parent-child attachment, and children's emotional and cognitive development, and how families use media for things like emotion regulation and cultural socialization.
Publication activity has been growing, rising from around one paper per year in the late 2010s to a peak of eight in 2025.
