This document examines the effects of excessive social media use on mental health. Through a literature review and online surveys, it finds that most youth spend 1-4 hours daily on social media and that overuse can lead to addiction, anxiety, decreased productivity, and dual personality disorder.

• Connecting with other active tweeters will
improve your reach
• Who’s in charge of social media in your
organisation?
21. Getting started!
• Follow the right people
• Listen
• Take the plunge!
• Share share share
• Re-tweet things that
interest you
• Use native tools (Twitter
#Discover/hashtags/lists,
Facebook
hashtags/groups)
• If you like it, consider
using Tweetdeck,
Hootsuite etc.
• What high-
activity users
are doing?
• What are people
saying about
your topic?
• What sorts of
conversations
are successful?
22. Plan your activity
• Commit enough time
• Use your smartphone as well as your
computer
• Use all appropriate sites: Twitter, Facebook,
LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTube etc.
• Make use of “old” material in context
• Repeat your activity at different times of day,
e.g.
– Publish blog at 7.30am (auto-post to Twitter)
– Auto-schedule tweets (at 9.00am, 10.30am,
12.30pm, 2.00pm, 5.00pm, 7.30pm, 10.15pm) to
highlight different aspects of the blog
23. Use a template for strategy

25. It’s about community
• Parallels with real social life
– It takes time and commitment
– Be nice
– Be yourself
– Be professional
• Identify shared interests
• Offer help and support
• Use direct messaging for privacy, but don’t be shy
– contact people who you want to connect with
27. Analytics
• Start with the in-built metrics (e.g. Tweet
activity, Facebook insights etc.)
• Beware vanity analytics
• Consider using paid tools if you’re serious
about measuring engagement

30. Beware vanity analytics
• Hits, page views, visits: don’t count these,
count people
• Unique visits: tells you nothing about what
they actually did on your site
• Followers/friends/likes: active/engaged
followers is what you need
• Time on site/number of pages: poor
substitute for actual engagement
• Email subscribers: email opens and clicks
• Downloads: activations or account creations

Occam’s Razor (a blog) by Avinash Kaushik Best social media
metrics.
Conversatio
n
• Number of
comments or
replies per
post
Amplificatio
n
• Number of
shares
(retweets)
per post
Applause
• Number of
likes
(favourites)
per post
32. Analytics tools
• Google Analytics: your starting point if you have a
website
• True Social Metrics: in-depth tracking of social media
across platforms
• iPerceptions: exit survey
• Altmetrics: monitor SM activity for academic papers
• Many many more!!!
What to look for:
• Works across multiple social networks
• Comparisons with industry standards
• Using segments to compare different types of activity
• Time of day analysis
• Influencer analysis

35. True impact
• Does social media change beliefs, behaviour
or health outcomes?
• Quantitative studies not all that impressive to
date
• Qualitative studies are more encouraging
• Engagement and empowerment are key
outcomes
• Do we know what outcomes to measure?
37. Activity 2: blogging
Silins, Edmund et al. (2014) Young adult sequelae of adolescent
cannabis use: an integrative analysis. Lancet-Psych 1 (4) 286-
293.
39. Suzi Gage in The Guardian
“The sample size is still not large where outcomes
are very rare. In the case of suicide attempts,
despite a sample size of 2,537 participants, only 78
people in the analysis attempted suicide, and of
them, only two were daily cannabis users. This
means the strength of evidence is low (as can be
seen by the uncertainty around the estimated
risk, which ranges from a doubling of risk for
daily users to a 22-fold increase), and any bias in
the data will have a larger effect when the numbers
are very small.”
41. Activity 2: 10 mins
• You are an evidence-based blogger and become
aware of the Lancet-Psych paper
• You see that it’s getting lots of media attention
• But are its results being reported accurately?
Plan a social media strategy for countering
this
1. Which channels will you use?
2. What outcomes do you want to achieve?
3. What tweets would you plan?
4. How will you measure impact?
