A new study suggests that blanket bans on social media for teens may not be effective. It finds that moderate use can benefit well-being, while both heavy use and total avoidance can lead to negative outcomes, particularly varying by age and gender.
A study from the University of Cambridge reveals that adolescents with mental health conditions, particularly those with anxiety and depression, use social media differently than their peers, reporting more dissatisfaction with online friend counts and spending about 50 minutes more on these platforms daily. They are also more prone to social comparisons and mood changes based on social media interactions, highlighting the complex relationship between social media use and mental health among young people.
