The Social Media Paradox: Aggression in Children

This research investigated the association among social media usage and aggression levels in children aged 11 to 17 years. A total of 100 participants were assessed using questionnaire. Data evaluation was conducted applying Pearson’s correlation coefficient used to explore the connection among the two variables. The result shows that the higher social media interaction will report increased aggression among children. These findings highlight the potential psychological risks of excessive or unregulated social media use in young populations. The study underscores the value of parental supervision, digital education, also the promotion of healthy online interactions as strategies to mitigate these adverse effects. Future research should explore specific content types and the role of online peer dynamics in influencing aggressive behaviour.
