How social media affects psychological well-being

Reference no: EM133591396

In "Social Media's Growing Impact on Our Lives," Summer Allen (2019) writes, "The question as to how social media affects psychological well-being-both for teens and adults-is a common one. While some studies have found associations between social media use and loneliness, depression, and poor life satisfaction, these associations don't necessarily mean that social media is to blame."

Take a position. Does social media positively or negatively impact psychological well-being?

I believe social media negatively impacts our psychological well-being for various reasons, however I'm struggling to find a scholarly article.

Make your case by persuasively arguing your position. Include at least one scholarly article to support your position.
