Caution on social media
A comprehensive study has revealed that excessive use of social media is associated with an increased likelihood of reporting symptoms of depression. The findings show that users who spend less than 150 minutes daily on these platforms experience more depressive symptoms, especially as the years pass. Researchers from the University of Cincinnati and Northwestern analyzed over 183,000 survey responses over a period of 11 years, employing artificial intelligence techniques. The results demonstrated a consistent relationship between intensive usage and depressive stress, with the significance of this indicator growing over time. The study does not establish that social media causes depression directly, but it clarifies that high usage density is a correlated factor over time. It is recommended to reduce the amount of time dedicated to social media by setting timers and turning off notifications.
