Sociability Project: Social Media and Negative Well-Being.
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- This is a literature review that focuses on the negative effects that social media use has on psychological well-being. Current research has resulted in positive effects from social media as well as negative effects. The purpose of this is to show the different ways in which social media use can led to negative outcomes in well-being. This literature review contains numerous studies and articles that explore the different ways in which social media negatively affects the well-being of social media users. This literature review uses a simple definition of what well-being is and simply shows how relationships connect to well-being. Because social media is based off of social relationships between users, the articles chosen will show how social media usage, leads to negative well-being.
