ABSTRACT
The effects of social media use on an individual’s well or ill-being are highly contextualized to the individual’s characteristics and their specific type of social media use. Interventions designed to promote youth modifications of their social media use are needed to minimize harms in an individualized manner. The objective of this study was to develop and gather youth focus group feedback on a Social Media Single Session Intervention (SM SSI) intended to improve insight about effects of social media use on well/ill-being, knowledge of potential changes to make and self-efficacy to make changes. Focus group feedback revealed that the SM SSI is acceptable. Requested changes will be incorporated into a final iteration of the SM SSI to be piloted in the future.
