Our lab at UT Dallas is excited to invite you or any Dallas local adolescents you know to a new two-week online intervention program seeking to explore the effects of social media on adolescent mental and cognitive well-being. If you have any younger siblings, children, cousins, family friends, or other young connections in the area, we encourage you to please spread the word about our study. For completing all the components listed below, they can be compensated up to $150.
Depending on their assigned group, adolescents may:
-
Limit time on TikTok and Instagram for two weeks
-
Or attend an online workshop on healthy social media use
To understand the effectiveness of the program, the adolescent will be asked to complete the following questionnaires and lab visits (Some visits do include completing computer tasks while wearing a safe, non-invasive EEG cap to measure brain activity):
-
A pre-intervention IN-PERSON lab visit at UT Dallas
-
A pre-intervention online questionnaire
-
An online daily check-in questionnaire
-
A post-intervention IN-PERSON lab visit at UT Dallas
-
A post-intervention online questionnaire
-
An online follow-up questionnaire one month later
If you know any teenagers interested, please share this short eligibility survey: https://redcap.utdallas.edu/surveys/?s=E73YY4D97MA8FCJ7 . We will reach out ASAP!
