520			_aAbstract This mixed-methods study explored parental perspcctives on the psychological impact of screen time among school-aged children (ages 6-12) in Dumaguete City. As digital media becomes increasingly embedded in children's routines, concerns have risen over its effects on psychological well-being. Guided by Bronfenbrenner's Ecological Systems Theory, the study employed an explanatory sequential design. Quantitative data were gathered from 100 parents using structured surveys. Results showed that 48% of children excccded the recommended daily screen tine of two hours, with 72% of usage centered on entertainment. Significant correlations were found between high screen time emotional symptoms (rs 0.465, p <.001), sleep disturbances (rs 0.318, p 001), and peer relationship problems (rs 0.212, p 034), Parental employment status was also significantly associated with children's screen time duration (p012). The qualitative phase followed Braun and Clarke's six-step Thematic Analysis using interview data from 8 purposively selected parents. Thematic findings revealed six core themes: (1) emotional and behavioral impacts, including irritability, emotional dysregulation, and reduced attention span; (2) academic challenges such as poor concentration and lower academic performance; (3) parental struggles in enforcing screen limits due to fatigue and competing demnands; (4) exposure to inappropriate content; (5) screen use as a coping mechanism for parents; and (6) proactive strategies, including screen time limits and provision of alternative activities. Notably, two parents reported instances of children experiencing seizures attributed to prolonged and unregulated screen exposure. Overall, excessive screen time can harm children's emotional and behavioral health, but risks can be reduced through active parenting, structured use, and supportive strategies. Keywords: Screen time, parental perspectives, school-aged children, psychological well-being, mixed-methods study.
