A recent article in the Mental Health Weekly Digest highlights the need for more scientific research on the relationship between social media and the brain. The University of Hong Kong's State Key Laboratory of Brain and Cognitive Sciences, in collaboration with Ulm University in Germany, calls for neuroscientific studies to provide evidence-based information on the effects of social media on mental health and well-being. While there have been some studies using brain imaging technologies, the current understanding is limited and hampered by methodological shortcomings. The researchers emphasize the importance of evidence-based policy making and the need to understand the brain mechanisms involved in social media use. [Extracted from the article] |
