作者：
Highlights：
• Parental inefficacy was positively associated with children's screen time.
• TV and tablet use were associated with fewer home literacy practices.
• Book and computer use were associated with more engagement in home literacy practices.
• The findings suggest parents strategically manage children's screen time as a response to their lack of parenting efficacy.
• Parents need help to manage their parenting anxiety and use screen technology in educationally productive ways.
