Excellent - Great that it's encouraged some reflection already!
Social media changes so quickly, I find it difficult to keep up sometimes

Findings reflect that:

📱 Social media reactions are used for more than showing they ‘like’ a social media post.
📱 Reactions are used determine popularity and to give, receive, and withhold social support.
📱 Adolescents with mental health concerns may worry more about using or receiving reactions.
