American Psychological Association (APA) Issues Recommendations for Adolescent Social Media Use
APA has released research-based recommendations for healthy social media use among kids and teens to guide educators, parents, policymakers, mental health practitioners, tech companies, and youth. The recommendations emphasize minimizing the chances for harm and maximizing the benefits that social media can provide. See APA's tips for parents, based on the recommendations, and a Q&A with APA Chief Science Officer Mitch Prinstein, PhD, on how to provide social media literacy for children that will maximize the chances for balanced, safe, and meaningful experiences.
