Social Media & Well-Being

RESEARCH PROJECT

Let’s Build a Better Future for the Internet

Is social media causing depression and anxiety? Is Instagram causing your FOMO (fear of missing out)? Is your sleep affected by using your phone?

Ethical Digital  received a Mitacs grant to work with researchers from the University of Saskatchewan to create a large database of academic research related to social media and well-being.

The Mitacs logo in blue with stylized text.
Ethical Digital logo with the word 'Ethical' in large font and 'DIGITAL' in smaller font underneath, with a gold underline.
Logo of the University of Saskatchewan featuring a green crest with yellow wheat and an open book with the Latin motto 'Deo et Patriae' and the university name in black text.
