Yes because it changes the way we recieve and communicate with people, how we spend our time, our levels of attention, and how we react at things that surround us daily.

2026-06-11 15:35:12 UTC

Yes, because there is a lot of content that can alter what you originally believed in and then change your mind in different topics. Also because of the social pressure to do something can be because of tendencies in social media.

2026-06-11 15:35:22 UTC

I believe that social media does affect your brain, as it makes us become used to recieving too much information in a short amount of time and makes us lose our ability to focus on one thing.

2026-06-11 15:35:29 UTC

Yes, because it transforms the way we adqcuire information and can affect how we feel it, if as an insult or as pulicy etc.

Yes, because in social media there are a lot of people sharing ideas and opinions so if you are a person who does not have a critical or good mind you are going to be influenced easy by the ideas of the others.

2026-06-11 15:35:46 UTC

Yes because the use of social media means that you are in a constant contact with artificial light that change your perspective of time, also there is many dopamine that come to your mind and if you do not reach the level that now you are used to then you will be tired.

2026-06-11 15:35:50 UTC

yes, because in the social media in this generation we have them since a short age and make to our perspectives change but idk if would change something in the genetic or scientific way

2026-06-11 15:36:28 UTC

in my opinion social media changes our brain negatively because this types of apps wants to mantain our attention, reducing our concentration and influencing our perspectives

In my opinion, social media change our brain by making it more lazy or by altering neurotransmitter levels through constant, unpredictable stimuli. It makes us pay a lot of attention also to see stupid things that are not relevant to our knowledge expansion. Social media is used to have fun and laugh for one moment, but it also can cause addictions to its content.

I really think it actually changes the way people think and even behave, because being exposed to different perspectives from famus people, influencers or sports people, individuals start doing what these important people do, and thinking exactly the same.

2026-06-11 15:36:35 UTC

the social media can change our brain brain because the social media shows diffrent things and opinions depending on the algorithim, also the social media is a big form of communication.

I think yhay the social media i something that change alwais the things we think because te social media has two porpouse one o f the is the marketing that some persons do to products or other things, and the other one is that when a person see something in social media thei want the things that they don t have

2026-06-11 15:36:41 UTC

I think that social media does affect our brain, because of all the information we can get on an instant, also, it changes the way we express ourselfs.

2026-06-11 15:36:51 UTC

I do think it changes our brain as we can spend so much time in it, maybe affecting our brain composition (Like neurons or hormons) and also, social media can share a lot of ideologies in which we can change the way we thing, out way of living or even ourselfs.

2026-06-11 15:36:54 UTC

I think in part yes, but not at all. Social media is everywhere and the usage is very big around the world so the influence that has made social media is greater than for example 5 years ago.

2026-06-11 15:37:08 UTC

Juan Lozano

Yes the social media change the brain it is demonstrated that it releases dopamine making us lazier than we are but it can also help to learn as it gives a lot of information and can help to socialize and interact with other people

2026-06-11 15:37:09 UTC

Sebastian Jaramillo,

I think that nowadays the social media have a great impact in the society, specially in the cognitive part, this happens because the social media transform our habbits making us addicted to the dopamine that is constantly given by this apps, so we can conclude that the brain is heavily affected by this.

2026-06-11 15:37:23 UTC

Yes, because by spending so much time on the screen, seeing other people's ideas or opinions, one can end up changing one's own thoughts or ideas about something or someone.

2026-06-11 15:37:31 UTC

Yes, for the reason that social media makes an influence on the way that we percieve our environment, and the things that happen around us, the content that we watch daily have an influence in our minds and in our way of thinking. Moreover, social media makes us believe in fake news and fake information. Finally, it can change the way we behave and have relations with others.

2026-06-11 15:42:40 UTC

Sarsh Buitrago

Yes, because it can change our perception of various situations or problems in the world and how this influences our daily lives and even our way of thinking, potentially causing arguments. Information processing is also altered.

2026-06-11 15:44:07 UTC

Social media has decreased our levels of attention , as well as our how we manage our emotions and how we take decisions in our daily life, social media also made us think multitasking was useful, but in reality it doesn´t, it just makes information harder to commit in our memory, most part of social media communication is for ourselves this have led to a easy type of dopamine when we just say things about you.

2026-06-11 15:44:24 UTC

That social media not only affects us in our relationships, but also to our mind, making us less productive and at the same time receiving a lot of dopamine of what we are doing in our social media. It also reduces the white substance of the brain making us less capable of making decisions or fast thinking.

2026-06-11 15:44:47 UTC

Now I think that social media really can change the way our brain works due to the realase of dopamine, some nervous affections like the phantom vibraton syndrome, also tha process od decision-making or emotions in relation with the content seen.

Juan Lozano

i can conclude that the brain is really affected as the way it gives an amount of dopamine to the brain and also makes us much distracted and makes us to think in more time and distract a lot

2026-06-11 15:45:08 UTC

That the social media can affect in many and severely ways our brain, not only in the way we think, but also in the way we behave. The release of hormones due to the internet can cause addictions and phantom feelings of having a phone. Our brain is conditioned and used to the amount of dopamine this apps produce, this can reduce the levels of attention, sleep and can reduce how effective in a day we are.

2026-06-11 15:45:17 UTC

My previous belief stands firm, with now even more justification. I have learnt that the frequent use of technology has affected our nervous system, as we now can confuse an itch for a notification in our phone. Social media has also changed how we handle social interactions, its been proven, according to the video, that couple who meet each other throug the internet are more likely to have succesful relationships.

2026-06-11 15:45:18 UTC

I think that the social media actually really changes our brain because after that we need a lot of stimulation to be like satisfied because the brain creates dopamine with the different factors that the brain see in our daily lifes and routines making us less productive not searching for other type of dopamine

2026-06-11 15:45:21 UTC

Sebastian Jaramillo,

Now i think that there are many more factors that are constantly changing the way our mind works, even the change is so massive that the productivity of many works could be afected by this adictions and make the humans do not progress in the science, making the society the reason of their own failure.

2026-06-11 15:45:34 UTC

Social media can be very damaging to the human brain due to the nature of the system created, which promotes a rewiring of human connections and replaces them with a self rewarding system that in the mayority of cases damages social interactions due to the fact that our interests are put above others needs

2026-06-11 15:45:36 UTC

That when you are using the social media it is similar as the use of drugs because the body generates dopamine and it stimulates us but in a bad way because this can decreased our levels of attention and fast thinking, this is making that the young people are having some issues with the take of desicions

2026-06-11 15:45:37 UTC

Tomas Vargas

Now i think that is more than a change o thinking is an adiction cause by the dopamina that our brain produce , this is a very big problem because is something that create that we lost hours doing that the human los a lot of capacitys and affects our form to relationate with other people in the real life

2026-06-11 15:45:43 UTC

I think that social media has a great impact on our lifes, and by this I also include the brain, it is crazy to think that the social interactions people had now are desapearing because the low capacity to retain information, and the poor social skills (like difficulties in how to manage emotions, or even let this interactions in second plane to start another activity). ;)

2026-06-11 15:45:55 UTC

Samuel Mendez

Now i think that social media actually affect our brain, since it creates the necesity of being constantly receving this cheap dopamine, the brain loves this rewards with almost no effort, so it even creates the vibration of the phone when it actually didn´t sound. It reduces the capacity of multi tasking and the attention ability.

2026-06-11 15:45:56 UTC

Aleshka Kairuz I think that the social media is a type of drugs that satisfies our brain making that we wanted more and more because of the dopamine also help to decrease our habilities like multitasking or attention to different things.

2026-06-11 15:46:06 UTC

Social media has an influence on our brains because it releases dopamine as a "short" reward while scrolling online. Also, social media has an impact on the way we start a relationship, behave with others, affects our memory, the attention we put on activities and it makes us become adict to scrolling online and browsing on the internet.

2026-06-11 15:46:31 UTC

Stefania Pulido

My conclusion is that we sometimes get too attached to our electronic divices without even realized, like sometimes we use more our phones that talking to peaple directly and that n aspect that we should change, also that we start to et really distracted by the social media and not be able to see what is happening around the world with our proper eyes, and onl.y by using the internet and that can be really bad because a lot of the information on the internet can be false or missunderstod.

2026-06-11 15:46:40 UTC

Sarah Buitrago

Social media can radically affect various aspects of your life, such as your way of thinking. This is related to hormones, causing an imbalance and creating an addiction to information use. It can even damage and affect the brain's ability to make good decisions, focus attention, and effectively create solutions.

2026-06-11 15:46:47 UTC

Social media don't have a great impact on us, especially when we don't know how to set limits on screen time, causing it to become a kind of addiction or drug. It also influences our decisions, because when we see that a large majority of people have an opinion, we tend to change ours to think the same.

2026-06-11 15:46:50 UTC

Social media really affects our brain by charging it with excesive information or irrelevant videos. Making us mindless, like, our thinking process gets struggle because of the lazy effect that social media produces in our brain. This finally also can affect our social relationships by avoiding socializing or talking with people for continue scrolling in social media. It produces desinterest.

2026-06-11 15:46:51 UTC

Social media changes our mind, it stimulates hormones like dopamine and makes us addict to social media and the content that is being exposed there, so like a result that thing makes other people to consume the content unrepeatably.

2026-06-11 15:46:58 UTC

Social media can change how we think by fragmenting attention with rapid, short content and frequent notifications that favor quick reactions over sustained, this brings in concecuences exces of dopamine that transforms into a vicius circle, reflective thought; its reward-driven design (likes, shares) reinforces habitual checking and approval-seeking, while algorithmic personalization creates filter bubbles that strengthen existing beliefs and reduce exposure to opposing views, this is realy bad because the external oppinios need to be shown or else, the indifference exist; exposure to curated highlights promotes social comparison and can harm self-esteem, emotional amplification of viral content biases judgments toward sensational or outrage-driven information.
