This article shows that teens think there are positive and negative things about social media. This article can be
used to show that while social media allows for anonymity and increases the likelihood that teens will ask for
help, it also increases stress. Additionally, social media can help with long-distance communication between
family members, but it also causes distractions when friends are together in person. The authors are qualified
experts in the subject area, the bibliography of the articles is extensive, and the work was peer reviewed prior to
printing, making this a reliable source.

This article reports the findings of Common Sense Media’s survey of 1,141 teens, which found that the impact of
social media depends largely on the personality of the user and the time spent on it. This proves that the effects
of social media are complicated because it all depends on personalities and screen time. I know this is a reliable
source because it was published in the School Library Journal, reports the findings of a large-scale survey, and is
fairly recent.

This study surveyed 3,095 Spanish students from 12 to 18 years of age and found that the highest performing
students spent only 2 hours and 20 minutes on screen media each day, sleeping an average of 9 hours per night.
The lowest group spent 5 ½ hours per day on screen media, sleeping an average of 8 hours per night. This can be
used to prove that the more time teens spend on screen media, the less sleep they get, and the lower their
academic performance. The article was published in a reviewed journal, has an extensive bibliography, and offers
first-hand research
