This study examined the use of social networks among 1,487 adolescents in Andalusia, Spain. The results showed that most young people consistently used social networks, with the average age of joining being 12.5 years old. Two main motivations for using social networks were identified: social and psychological. No significant gender differences existed in frequency of use, but motivations did differ - boys tended to be motivated by emotional factors while girls were more relationally motivated. The findings provide insights into how social networks can impact social integration, citizenship, and education among youth.
This document summarizes a study on interactions of young people in Andalusia, Spain on social networks. The study surveyed 1,487 youth aged 13-19. It found that Andalusian youth have near-unlimited access to social networks from a young age, with little adult monitoring. Their motivations for using social networks fall into three categories: social motivations, psychological/affective motivations, and needs related to everyday life. The study provides new insights into how Andalusian youth use social networks and the meanings behind their practices.
This document summarizes a study on how college students seek information to meet their everyday life needs. A survey of over 8,000 students at 25 U.S. colleges found that most students look for news, health, purchase, and spiritual information. Students rely heavily on search engines but find filtering results difficult. Students use a hybrid approach, combining search engines and asking friends and family. The study provides insight into how digital natives approach everyday tasks and seeks to understand their information problem-solving skills.

This document summarizes a study on the Network of Early European Research (NEER), an Australian network that aims to support research on European culture and history between the 5th and 19th centuries. The study found that while NEER members see it primarily as a network to expand contacts and access information, it has also fostered some collaborative research projects. Participation in NEER impacted about half of members' understanding of scholarly community, enabling new opportunities for collaboration, information sharing, and relationship building. However, for some members a true sense of community remained a potential that required more time to develop interpersonal connections.
This document discusses research on intercultural competences and social media. It covers several topics:
1. Social media monitoring tools can be used to analyze online discussions about intercultural topics like the Erasmus program and gain insights into public attitudes.
2. A "third culture" model suggests that social media may be developing its own universal communication styles that bridge different cultures. Memetic communication uses multimedia to make comments more attractive and understandable globally.
3. Cultural differences can still be observed in online behaviors, like what types of content people from individualistic versus collective cultures prefer to share.
4. Overall, while social media may be developing some shared communication norms, it also enables the externalization
1) The document compares predictors of self-disclosure and privacy settings use between adolescents and adults on social network sites. It finds that adolescents disclose more personal information and have more lenient privacy settings than adults.
2) Several factors were found to affect disclosure and privacy settings, with some differences between adolescents and adults. Gender, age, frequency of use, motives for use, concerns about privacy and contacts, trust in others, and susceptibility to peer influence were investigated as predictors.
3) The study aims to provide better information for developing interventions to encourage appropriate privacy management tailored for different age groups on social network sites.
This document discusses the lack of qualified technology workers in Idaho despite high unemployment. It notes that in 2009 there were 395 computer programming jobs but only 24 graduates in that field, and 929 information technology jobs but only 162 graduates. It also points out the extremely small proportion of women involved in technology fields in Idaho. The document raises questions about what social, cultural, and economic factors contribute to the lack of women studying and pursuing careers in technology in Idaho.
This chapter provides a summary of each chapter in a research paper on the effects of internet usage on the academic performance of high school students.

The document summarizes a study that analyzed the impact of information and communication technology (ICT) skills on women's earnings in the United States using data from the Program for International Assessment of Adult Competencies (PIAAC). The study found that:
1) Both men and women saw similar average earnings increases (0.3%) from acquiring more ICT skills, however women still earned 36% less than men on average.
2) ICT skills impacted men's and women's earnings at the same rate when controlling for factors like education, age, and family status.
3) While the study provided preliminary results, further research is needed to more fully understand the overlaps between gender, discrimination, and technology
1) Stereotyping of computer science as a male-dominated field has discouraged girls from pursuing related careers. Research shows using gaming to teach computing concepts at a young age and providing female mentors may help break down stereotypes.
2) Studies found that girls had lower self-efficacy and interest in computer science due to societal stereotypes. However, programs that used gaming to teach concepts and matched girls with STEM mentors were shown to increase girls' skills, knowledge of careers, and intentions to study STEM fields.
3) Research also found that using a female interface agent when teaching math and engineering concepts helped raise girls' self-efficacy, interest, and performance compared to groups without
Facebook crowdsourcing and the transition to collegeJake Livengood
This document summarizes a research study about pre-college students' use of Facebook groups before starting their first year of college. The researchers analyzed over 4,500 posts from 6 university-sponsored Facebook groups. They found that the majority of posts (over 66%) focused on future social relationships and finding common interests with peers. A smaller portion of posts discussed academic topics or future careers. The primary theme across all groups was students looking to connect with others who had similar hobbies, locations, or other commonalities. The informal Facebook interactions allowed students to develop friendships and a sense of community before arriving on campus.

Teach students to protect privacy when using social media. Digital world is also the world.
Examining Internet Use Among Low-Income StudentsJason Seliskar
This document discusses a study examining internet use among low-income high school students and how it compares to national trends. The study found that these students had lower rates of internet access at home compared to their more affluent peers. It also found differences in how frequently and for what purposes low-income students used the internet compared to national data that portrays all teens as constant, savvy users of digital technology. The researchers argue it is important for teachers to understand low-income students' experiences with and access to technology in order to design equitable learning opportunities and digital literacy instruction both in and out of school.
This document discusses several topics related to online learning communities and knowledge creation, including social presence, social capital, connectors between learning networks, and designing collaborative activities. It proposes ideas for future research, such as identifying the roles of connectors, measuring their influence on learning outcomes, understanding the importance of strong and weak social ties, and designing online environments and activities that minimize technology problems and accommodate learner diversity. References are provided for many of the concepts and models discussed.
Media exposure and education of first to six grade children from slovenia p...Lazar Stosic
The family environment plays an important role in influencing the way that children use the media and the degree of their exposure to media, however the mediating role of parents in this process is not sufficiently understood. The present paper presents the results of a 2016 Slovenian national survey in which opinions of 2,825 parents concerning their children’s exposure to media were collected and analysed using the SPSS PSAW Statistic 18 software package. Our results show that exposure to media by children from the first to the sixth grade increases with age, that children of parents who are themselves heavy media users are more likely to be heavy users and that children who are heavy media users also receive lower test scores.
This study examined the relationship between media use and stress symptoms in German adolescents. Researchers surveyed 357 11-year-olds about their use of TV, audio media, print media, and computers. They found that most time was spent with TV and coping was a main reason for using all media types. Girls associated media use more with externalizing symptoms while boys associated it with both internalizing and externalizing symptoms. The study is now over 10 years old and was limited by only examining German Caucasian adolescents. Future research could expand to the US, examine new media like games/internet, and consider social/group use of media.

Usage of YouTube Content among Chennai Urban Women.pdfPugalendhiR
Abstract: The majority of YouTube users are college students, therefore it's critical to understand their usage patterns,
goals, and any potential psychological and behavioural effects. In order to determine the current trends in YouTube usage
among female undergraduate students in Chennai City, this study will examine the devices used, memberships subscribed
to, purposes used, and identity formation time spent networking, negative impacts experienced, and educational usage.
Data from a survey were analysed with SPSS-Statistic 19.0 software, and the findings were compared to the examined
literature. According to the survey, students' YouTube networking habits will eventually win out over parents' and
teachers' attitudes, and although while cell phones are currently prohibited in many college buildings, they will
undoubtedly be utilised in classrooms in the near future. The discoveries provide the current study in this area more depth.
The document is a research proposal examining the impact of social networking sites on the academic performance of adolescents. It includes an introduction outlining the research problem, literature review on relevant topics, research design using questionnaires and interviews of a sample of local adolescents, and a proposed presentation of findings and data analysis. The research aims to evaluate the negative impact of social media usage on academics, determine influencing factors for student participation, and identify measures to reduce time spent on social networking sites.

ABSTRACT
Social media is a dissenting topic, especially today. Some people have had the view that social media ruins human interaction not to mention real life human relationships. On the other hand, in the era of everything instant, the idea of living has drastically changed. Initially, people held the idea that life is too hard but with the advancement in technology it has now become a saying that life is easy. All this is attributable to modern technology and equally important globalization, in the sense that people are becoming more independent and interconnected. Social media has changed the world as people used to know it in the sense that people can do everything in an interconnected world that enables instant communication. Some of the most popular social networking includes Facebook, and Twitter among others. Similarly, in this era of social networking people’s idea of reality has greatly changed and people handle such things as relationship differently. This being the case, the objective of this paper is to develop a final prospectus regarding the impacts of social media. Mainly, the paper will focus its attention on the impact of social media and some of the ways that can be used to define the controversy between social media and youths below the 23 years of age.
Impact of Social Media
As mentioned in the discussion, there are many social networks to choose from such as Twitter, Snapchat and Instagram among others. In understanding how social media impacts the youth, it is imperative to look at both the pros and cons of social media on the youth. Essentially social media has reduced the world in a global village which means youths can share and interact easily and instant. Conferring with Ahn (2011), addiction to social media has resulted to poor performance in leaning institutions. Many bright students have resorted to bad behaviours because of social media. Ideally, social media has captured the attention of youths to an extent of not focusing on studies. The issue of mobile phones in learning institutions has invited an endless debate currently. Teachers have complained that students are using phones to connect with their friends and families through such networking sites like Facebook. This idea of using phones in classrooms has deteriorated student performance.
Additionally, youth are so addicted to social media that they do not study at home. Normally, students are supposed to maintain impartiality between social media and studies. This obsession with social media is detrimental to the youth lives. It is estimated that 70% of the district school block have access to social network sites. The rationale behind this is that online communities allow youths to build social capital. In other words, youths are able to access information, seek advice and share ideas through a network of relationships. Most of these SNS o.

The document summarizes a study on the socio-cultural impact of social media among female university students in Chennai, India. It conducted surveys of 150 students to analyze how social media influences their social relationships, academics, and cultural values. The study found that social media primarily impacts students' relationships with close friends and family, but does not significantly influence their cultural practices or attitudes based on gender. While social media can positively impact social connections, it can also negatively affect students' academic performance by distracting them and reducing reading/study habits. The document concludes that social media is widely used by university students both positively and negatively, so governments and parents should provide oversight and guidance on appropriate social media use.

Emerging adults often use social networking sites to connect and reconnect with friends and family from their offline lives. A study of college students' social networking site use found overlap between their online and offline social networks, though the overlap was imperfect. Students may use different online contexts like social media versus instant messaging to strengthen different aspects of offline relationships. The findings suggest online and offline social worlds are psychologically connected for emerging adults as they navigate relationships and identity development.

ABSTRACT
Although social networking websites (SNSs, especially Facebook) have become highly popular with youths, some
university students do not want to participate in such sites. This study explores the underlying reasons for high-tech
university students’ non-use of social networking websites. The study group (n=20) consisted of 18 to 25-year-old
undergraduate students, who were selected by the purposive sampling method. Data were collected from two large
state universities in Turkey. Facebook, as one of the most popular social networking websites, was selected as a
study context. Qualitative research methods were used in the data collection and analysis processes. The primary
reasons for not using social networking websites were that they were perceived to be a waste of time, or an unne-
cessary tool; that they might lead to an addiction; that they might violate privacy concerns or share unnecessary infor-
mation; and that they might invoke family concerns. Additionally, the findings indicated that most of the students did
not trust virtual friendships, and did not like sharing photographs and political views online. This identification of
non-user students’ attitudes about SNSs will help us to better understand individual perceptions and experiences
relating to these social services.
RESUMEN
Aunque las redes sociales (los SRS, especialmente Facebook) se han popularizado entre la juventud, hay algunos
alumnos universitarios que no desean participar en ellas. Esta investigación explora las razones subyacentes por las
cuales los alumnos universitarios no utilizan las redes sociales. El grupo experimental (n=20) estuvo formado por
alumnos de licenciatura de entre 18 y 25 años, seleccionados mediante muestreo intencional. Se recogieron los datos
en dos grandes universidades estatales de Turquía. Facebook fue seleccionado para contextualizar esta investiga-
ción, por ser una de las redes sociales más populares. Los métodos de investigación cualitativa se emplearon en la
recogida y análisis de los datos. Entre las razones principales por las que no utilizan las redes sociales se encuentran
su percepción como una pérdida de tiempo, o una herramienta innecesaria; las posibil ...
Social Intelligence and Metacognition of adolescentsArul Sekar J.M.
The present study aims to find out the level of social intelligence and metacognition of adolescents and the
correlation between social intelligence and metacognition of adolescents. Since it is a fact-finding
an expedition, survey method was adopted by the investigator. Stratified random sampling techniques of 120
adolescents falling in the age group of 18-20 years were taken for this investigation. The above samples
were taken from the undergraduate students who are studying in two Government arts and science colleges
in Tiruchirappalli District which are the Colleges, affiliated to Bharathidasan University, Tiruchirappalli,
Tamil Nadu, India, of whom 69 are boys and 51 are girls. Special attention was given to such factors as
gender and subjects. Social Intelligence Scale is developed and validated by the investigator (2011) and
Metacognition Inventory by Punitha Govil (2003) was used to collect the data. The data are analyzed by
percentage analysis, mean, standard deviation, ‘t’ test, and correlation. The findings of the study results
reveal that (i) the 54.2 percent of adolescents have a high level of social intelligence and 67.5 percent of
adolescents have a moderate level of metacognition, (ii) there is a significant difference between boy and girl
adolescents with regard to social intelligence and its dimensions namely social information processing,
social awareness and social skills (iii) there is no significant difference between boy and girl adolescents
with regard to metacognition and its dimensions such as regulation of cognition and knowledge of cognition
(iv) there is a significant difference between arts group and science group adolescents in their social
intelligence and in their metacognition, (v) there is no significant relationship between social intelligence
and metacognition of adolescents with regard to boy, arts group and science group respondents, but there is
no significant relationship between social intelligence and metacognition of adolescents with regard to girl
respondents.
The document discusses how social networking sites and social media are being used for political purposes, such as political organization and engagement among young citizens. It also examines how terrorist groups like ISIS utilize various social media platforms for spreading propaganda, recruitment, and communication. The rise of social media presents both opportunities and challenges for political participation but also enables threats like terrorism to spread their influence more widely.
- The document presents a study examining the relationship between age and technology use. A survey was conducted with 115 participants across different age groups.
- Results showed those aged 18-30 were less likely to own a desktop but more likely to own a laptop. Those over 70 were more likely to own a desktop.
- Those aged 18-34 were more likely to use social networks, while those over 34 were half as likely. Those aged 18-64 were more likely to own a smartphone than those 65+.

How has social Media affected today’s Youth?
Social Media is a prominent part of today's life, especially among young people. Unfortunately, the users of social media do not stop to think about the effects it has on their lives. For instance, people are becoming anti-social while they are at the same time desperate to make more friends on Facebook or get more followers on Twitter. People need to know the impact of social media, both negative and positive, rather than just engage blindly. While there are many positive aspects of social media, the negative aspects are equally many. To help make the right choices, this paper will be an analysis of the effects of social media on youths, and how the negative effects can be handled.
This paper will help youths and parents understand the dangers of social media and know the boundaries they should use as they use it. Failure to do so will cause them to fall to varying traps and dangers that will have negative consequences. Social media is one sector of the internet that is greatly used by criminals. On this site, youths get exposed to cyberbullying, online predators and sexting. These dangers should be discussed to let people know their damaging effects and how they can be avoided. Other than the above-mentioned dangers of using social media, there are effects that are rarely discussed. For instance, teens are not aware of the dangers of exposing their address on public platforms. This paper will expose these dangers and many more as well as provide the most appropriate solutions.

Abstract
There are numerous ways, positive and negative, in which social media impact college students.
Understanding sheer volume of time and the type of activities for which college students use social
networking sites is crucial for higher education administrators. Researchers have begun to empiri-
cally examine impacts on students’ well-being and have found some preliminary results that call for
more research. They find that social media are not the problem—the problem is the specific use and
purpose of social media activities that make the difference.

A total of 50 interviews from both time periods were analyzed longitudinally. The studies sought to understand how social and economic factors influenced individuals' decisions around adopting and using new technologies. Key factors included class, ethnicity, age, location, and gender norms. The analyses focused on the sources of cultural capital that shaped people's approaches to technology.
A STUDY ON IMPACT OF SOCIAL MEDIA ON YOUTHKathryn Patel
This document summarizes a research study on the impact of social media on youth. The study found that social media has both positive and negative effects. Positively, it allows learning, staying connected with friends, and provides entertainment and opportunities. However, it can also cause health issues, waste time, and lead to cyber theft. Most respondents spent 3-4 hours per day on social media and used platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. While it benefits well-being for some, others reported high negative impacts. The study recommends using social media wisely and balancing online and offline activities.

A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

ABSTRACT
This article presents the results of a study on the use of social networks among young Andalusians. The main objec-
tives are to know the uses of social networks, their frequency and the motives behind their use. A questionnaire was
used to collect the data. The sample includes 1487 adolescents in Andalusia. The results show that young people,
for the most part, consistently used social networks. We identified two motivational aspects in this use: one social
and the other psychological. There are not significant gender differences in frequency of use, but rather in the moti-
vations for access. Boys tend to be the more emotional type, while girls were dominated by a more relational moti-
vation. The results show similarities with international researches in environments that vary greatly from the present
work. The conclusions suggest the need for future lines of work. This study also identifies the implications of social
network uses for active citizenship and participatory training and social integration. These results are also important
for the enrichment of dimensions such as social capital development and education.
RESUMEN
Este artículo presenta los resultados de un estudio sobre la utilización que hacen los jóvenes andaluces de las redes
sociales. Los objetivos fundamentales son: conocer los usos preferentes de las redes sociales, su frecuencia y los moti-
vos que les impulsan a su utilización. Además se estudia si existen diferencias de sexo tanto en la frecuencia como
en las motivaciones de uso. Se aplica un cuestionario para la recogida de datos. La muestra es de 1.487 adolescentes
de Andalucía. Los resultados muestran que los jóvenes en su mayoría usan de manera habitual las redes sociales y
se identifican dos vertientes motivacionales en su uso: una social y otra psicológica. No se hallan diferencias signifi-
cativas entre sexos en cuanto a frecuencia de uso, pero sí en las motivaciones para su acceso. Las de los chicos son
de tipo emocional, mientras que en las chicas predomina la motivación de carácter relacional. Los resultados obte-
nidos muestran coincidencias con investigaciones internacionales realizadas en contextos muy diferentes al presente
estudio. En la discusión de resultados se plantean futuras líneas de trabajo, a la vez que se identifican implicaciones
que los usos de las redes sociales tienen para la formación e integración social de una ciudadanía activa y participa-
tiva, así como para el enriquecimiento de dimensiones como el desarrollo del capital social y la educación.
