When United States (US) Surgeon General Dr. Vivek
Murthy pushed for a tobacco-style warning on social media,
he called the mental health crisis in young people an
emergency that demanded action without waiting for “perfect
information.”
Even among experts, questions remain about the exact
role that social media plays in the mental health of children and
teens. Authors of a comprehensive new review of research
on the topic say there’s still key information missing to know
whether prevention programs and interventions will work.
In the study, published recently in the medical journal
JAMA Pediatrics, researchers found an overall link between
anxiety and depression in adolescents and the time spent on
social media platforms, as well as a link between the types
of activities and content they were interacting with. However,
the level of impact varied enough to suggest that the findings
shouldn’t be generalized to the population as a whole. “In a
world increasingly saturated by digital technology, we cannot
afford to design prevention programs, interventions, and
regulations without knowing that they work for everyone,
especially those who are most vulnerable,” wrote the study
authors.
The National Academies committee specifically
recommend against a social media ban. Despite potential
harms — such as unhealthy social comparisons and
distracting from other important healthy behaviors such as
sleep, exercise and studying — social media can also benefit
young people by helping to foster connection with friends and
family, and with online support communities.
