Araştırma, okul öncesi dönem çocukların dijital teknolojileriyle etkileşiminin bazı değişkenler yönünden incelenmesi amacıyla yapılmıştır. Araştırmanın evrenini, 2017 yılı Sivas ilinde yaşayan 0- 72 aylık çocuklar ve ebeveynleri oluşturmuştur. Araştırmanın örneklemine evren içinden tesadüfî örnekleme yöntemi ile seçilen araştırmaya katılmaya istekli toplam 414 ebeveyn dâhil edilmiştir. Araştırmada veri toplama aracı olarak, Kanak ve Özyazıcı (2017) tarafından geliştirilen “Okul Öncesi Dönem Çocukların Dijital Oyun Oynama ve Uygulama Kullanma Alışkanlıklarına Yönelik Ebeveyn Yaklaşımları” ile demografik bilgilerin yer aldığı kişisel bilgi formu kullanılmıştır. Verilerin istatistiksel analizi SPSS 17 paket programı ile yapılmıştır. Katılımcıların evlerinde bulunan dijital araçlardan en fazla akıllı telefon %99, tablet %70,8, en az ise oyun konsolu Play station %12,1 bulunduğu bunu yanında kişisel dijital aleti olan çocukların oranın ise %39,6 olduğu görülmüştür. Elde edilen bulgulara göre evde en yaygın bulunan ve çocukların vakit geçirmeyi en çok sevdiği dijital alet akıllı telefondur. Çekirdek ailede yaşan, en çok akıllı telefon ile vakit geçiren ve kendine ait dijital aleti olan çocukların, ailece açık hava aktiviteleri yapmayan, ailece hikaye okumayan ailelerde çocukların daha fazla dijital aletler ile vakit geçirdiği görülmüştür.
