In this project we research about how social media have an impact on me and on society. How it effect us mentally.
I took a survey to see if i was addicted,..
Annoying person: What were your results?
Your still here.
"Congratulations! Psychologists estimate that as many as 5 to 10% of Americans meet the criteria for social media addiction today. But luckily, that's not you! Not checking social media every few minutes doesn't make you feel anxious, as you prefer to live 'in the moment' rather than through your apps. You use social media to your advantage, at work and to connect with friends and family, but you know when to put it away. Keep it up!"
Well I did expect it a little, I usually can't check what's new, sometimes I find out about things going on in the entertainment world when it all ended.
While reading the Pew article, I read an interesting statistic about how the Republican and Democrats divided on social media have an impact on the country but mostly on young adults. And now that the elections has been going on it does have there impacts.
In my opinion, the way social media is impacting on society is mostly negative. The way people are using social media is going on negatively, and kids are watch. People think by posting something's "ok" but its not because the same kids that are watching they are also thinking of doing. They are being introduced to things they are still young for. They are also being introduced to a world where their is a lot of judgements.
While reading and going through information for this project I earned about the different ways social media. The different impacts it has on different societies, negatively and positively. And the different impacts on different situations.
