Summary
This paper explores the relationship between social media use and mental health in young adults, discussing theories that may explain the connection between the two.
Categories
Depression: The paper discusses the link between social media use and depression, citing studies that show a positive correlation between time spent on social media and depressive symptoms.
Cognitive function and memory: The paper discusses the impact of social media use on cognitive function, particularly in relation to multitasking and its effects on mental health.
Sleep and insomnia: The paper discusses how sleep interruption due to blue light exposure from screens during social media use can impact mental health.
Psychiatric Disorders: The paper discusses the link between social media use and psychiatric disorders such as anxiety, compulsive behavior, and narcissism.
Education and learning: The paper discusses the impact of social media use on young adults' academic achievement, as part of the developmental tasks they face.
