Healio (12/17, DeFino) reported, “Sleep disturbance in psychiatrically vulnerable youth may be linked to negative emotional responses to social media,” researchers concluded in a study that “assessed 243 adolescents aged 11 to 18 years who were admitted to an adolescent psychiatric inpatient unit between February 2020 and January 2021 and examined their relationships with social media, clinical outcomes and sleep disturbances.” The findings were published in the December issue of the Journal of Psychiatric Research.
