| dc.description.abstract | There are about 3.8 billion active users of social media around the world as of 2023. Excessive social media use has the potential to increase the vulnerability of students which can lead to the development of psychological distress, decreasing self-esteem and increasing depressive symptoms. With use on the rise among university students, it's important to understand the potential adverse effects so that usage guidelines and interventions can be developed to reduce the negative effects. Therefore this study aimed at determining the relationship between social media on the mental health of Industrial psychology students of Makerere University in order to improve student affairs practices. | en_US |
