6 propositions for evaluating social medias impact on mental health
1. Teen mental health is being impacted globally and similarly
2. The level of evidence required should not be "beyond reasonable doubt." This isn't a court of law.
3. The mathematical model of the data is not reality, its a rough simplification of reality.
4. The correlation between mental health harm and social media is r=.15
5. Researchers fixate once they have begun to operationalize. They lose sight of other ideas, other explanations.
6. Make kids wait until 9th grade for smart phones, restrict phone usage at school, and require age verification for kids up to 16 for social media.
