L'hyperconnectivité se définit par une surexposition aux écrans. Les écrans font partie du quotidien et il est difficile de s'en défaire. Leur présence est omniprésente dans l'environnement des jeunes tant à la maison qu'à l'école, de façon récréative ou éducative. Cette surexposition peut amener plusieurs risques sur la santé physique et psychologique ainsi que sur le plan social et peut également conduire à une cyberdépendance. 3, record 1, French, - hyperconnectivit%C3%A9
