For over 30 years I've used some sort of a screen. Maybe it's just my generation. However, I've never thought of the screen as being there to hide dice rolls. For me it's there as a very convenient way to have reference charts without taking up a lot of room. That is, If I keep my charts in a binder, then that's just one more book lying flat in front of me to unbury when I need a quick reference - by standing up on a screen, it's really taking up very little room. I personally roll my dice behind the screen. However, a game I play in regularly, the GM also uses a screen, but he makes all his rolls in front of the screen in full view of the players. So, I think the use of the screen is not necessarily tied to the question of secret rolls. That said, it is there for those times when you do need to make a secret roll (disable traps comes to mind).
