The cartoon by Zen Pencils establishes a close connection to an article by Amedie, Jacob. Both of the sources claim that social media fosters a false sense of perception. While the cartoon uses a more visual appeal, the article curates a visualization.

The cartoon contributes to society's dependence on technology and the irony of criticizing others for being distracted. The artist's depiction of a child seeking their parent's attention while adults are preoccupied with their devices highlights a common contrast. Additionally, the comic's portrayal of a man ridiculing someone using a syringe, only to end up using their own device, provides a humorous twist. Overall, the cartoon successfully conveys its message without explicitly stating it.

The article "Problematic Social Media Use in Adolescents and Young Adults: Systematic Review and Meta-analysis" correlates with this book. Both texts claim that social media is evergrowing and ever-damaging to its users. Additionally, they both provide relevance to the internet triggering disorders like anxiety and depression in adolescence.

This book discusses the intricate relationship between academic stress, problematic smartphone usage, and depression. This particular subject matter is for my paper. Since it would serve as a valuable reference in supporting my stance on the adverse effects of social media.

# data[].attributes.body
Research has found a correlation between academic stress, problematic smartphone usage, and depression. Depression triggers negative emotional states, such as hopelessness, sadness, and persistent loss, often resulting from unhealthy coping mechanisms for stress. Diathesis-stress models of depression suggest that abnormalities in the HPA axis can contribute to depressive symptoms, mainly when traumatic or chronic stress triggers progressive HPA abnormalities. People who suffer from depression may find solace in the virtual and invisible realm of the internet, leading to increased internet use. Evidence indicates that depressive symptoms may affect the association between academic stress and problematic smartphone usage.

There is a literature overview entitled "Mediating Role of Social Media on Youth's Psychological Well-Being: A Machine-Generated Literature Overview" that is related to another article called "Problematic Social Media Use in Adolescents and Young Adults: Systematic Review and Meta-analysis" written by Shannon, H., Bush, K., Villeneuve, P. J., Hellemans, K. G., & Guimond, S. These sources highlight the significant impact of social media on young individuals aged 12 to 17, which can have unfavorable effects on their mental health. The authorities also talk about how social media can ruin a child's mental image and sleep schedule.

Children and teenagers increasingly use social media platforms like Facebook and MySpace to connect with friends and classmates. However, they are at risk of cyberbullying, privacy issues, and Internet addiction. Parents may need help to relate to their children's digital world and need more technical skills to keep up with the ever-changing Internet landscape. It's important to understand that kids' online lives are an extension of their offline lives and to participate in the online world together.

This article is similar to my other ones, but it will still be very helpful to my paper. It talks about the impact of social media on children, adolescents, and families. But with a specific focus on the detrimental effects of cyber-bullying, the growing concerns surrounding online privacy, and the addictive nature of the Internet.

The article titled "Fake News Detection on Social Media" discusses the prevalence of disinformation and false information on social media platforms. It delves into the various ways in which fake news can be identified and differentiated from legitimate news sources. This topic is of particular interest to me as it aligns with one of my key resources, Embo Reports, which also touches upon the importance of being able to discern between real and fake news on social media. Both of these resources provide valuable insights and examples of how individuals can safeguard themselves against the dangers of misinformation on social media.

# data[].attributes.body
Social media has become a breeding ground for the spread of fake news. A recent survey explored various ways to identify and prevent the spread of false information on social media platforms. The study suggests using computer programs, measurements, and information sets to determine the integrity of news articles. Additionally, researchers suggest researching the topic to ensure information accuracy. In the future, it is essential to be vigilant about the news we consume on social media and to verify its authenticity before sharing it with others.

The internet has given us a powerful tool to obtain knowledge, and social media plays a key role in this resource. It significantly impacts our culture, economy, and worldview. Social media enables the exchange of ideas, connections with others, mobilization for causes, seeking and offering advice. It eliminates communication barriers and allows decentralized channels for everyone to have a voice and participate democratically, even in oppressive countries. Social media serves as an outlet for various types of writing, from spontaneous to scholarly, and encourages interest-based groups to collaborate on projects outside of their classes. The platform fosters creativity and collaboration on numerous topics, including education, the economy, politics, race, health, and relationships.

Disinformation has long been a nuisance in social media. Conspiracy theories such as COVID-19 being an artificial virus and AIDS being a CIA bioweapon are examples of dubious veracity popularized on the internet. Protests against wearing masks have increased recently, with groups opposing lockdown restrictions and spreading health conspiracy theories. They argue that masks can lead to a lack of oxygen and carbon dioxide poisoning, despite evidence to the contrary. Misinformation is a problem that affects everyone. It is challenging to distinguish trustworthy sources from unreliable ones, and conspiracy theories tend to spread quickly. The internet can trick our brains into accepting false claims as confirmed through the illusory truth effect, making scary stories spread further than more thoughtful analysis.

I recently read a book called "Embo Reports" which discusses the issue of disinformation on social media. It reminded me of a resource I use called "Fake News Detection" that also addresses identifying false information on social media. Both the book and the resource provide examples to help educate people on this issue.

Facebook, created in 2004 by Mark Zuckerberg, has over 2 billion daily users. However, concerns about the negative impact on the mental health of young adults and adolescents are increasing. The suicide rate for individuals between the ages of 10 and 24 has increased by 57% between 2007 and 2017, according to the Centers for Disease Control. Alexey Makarin, an assistant professor at MIT, believes that people who use more social media are more at risk of becoming depressed. Conversely, people who are depressed use more social media.

Adolescents nowadays commonly utilize social media platforms. According to a comprehensive survey conducted on 750 individuals aged between 13 and 17, researchers found that 45% of them are actively present on social media. One of the prime advantages of social media for teenagers is that it provides them with a secure and safe space to express themselves and discover various resources and interests. Unfortunately, the disadvantages occupy the advantages as well. Teens who use social media are more prone to disrupt sleep schedules, cyberbullying, and procrastination.

In my paper, I will delve into the pressing concern of problematic social media usage among adolescents and young adults. Specifically, I will focus on this article's subject matter. Through my research, I hope to gain valuable insights and information regarding how social media impacts this age group.

One article called: "Problematic Social Media Use in Adolescents and Young Adults: Systematic Review and Meta-analysis by Shannon, H., Bush, K., Villeneuve, P. J., Hellemans, K. G., & Guimond, S." shows a connection with "Mediating Role of Social Media on Youth’s Psychological Well-Being: A Machine-Generated Literature Overview." One piece of evidence that supports that is based on how both sources provide information on social media's target audience is children who are between the ages of 12-17.

Technology is evolving every day. The prevalence of social media usage is growing as well. JMIR Mental Health seeks to systemically examine problematic social media in youth. Studies have found no
evidence of heterogeneity based on gender, age, and year of publication. A study in 2016 found that 97.5% of young adults in the United States have reported using at least one social media site daily. Gathered evidence has been conducted that higher social media usage is associated with symptoms of anxiety, depression, decreased physiological well-being, and lower self-esteem.

According to research by Dylan Walsh and other sources, social media usage has been linked to negative impacts on mental health. The constant need for validation and comparison with others can harm mental well-being. It is essential to be mindful of social media usage and take steps to protect mental health.

This article is highly relevant to my paper as it offers valuable information clearly and concisely. Specifically, it explores the connection between social media and mental health, a crucial topic for my essay. I plan to use this article to support my argument that social media harms mental health.

Teens find social media helpful but excessive use can harm mental health, causing distractions, trouble sleeping, bullying, and unrealistic expectations. Comparing themselves to others and seeking feedback can lead to depression, while mindless scrolling can reduce happiness. Sharing personal information on social media can lead to harassment and blackmail. Social media has both benefits and harms, but its goal seems to be making teens have mental illness and disrupted self-image. Teenagers' sleep schedules are often disrupted due to the fear of missing out on trends, causing anxiety and envy.
