Our research aims to deepen our understanding of how teens use and experience social media as compared to social interactions in-person and how both influence (i.e., changes, supports, detracts from) their well-being. Individual teens can participate alone or with their caregivers. Participation involves at least 6 weeks of daily smartphone surveys and periodic virtual meetings. Eligible families will attend an onboarding meeting to fully enroll into the study and become familiar with study protocols.
Participant Eligibility
Must be fluent and literate in English, no history of traumatic brain injury or cognitive, linguistic, or social disabilities, and access to a personal smartphone with internet and data capabilities.
