K.Y.. “Social media and Teens.”School Library Journal, vol. 64, no. 10, October 2018, pp. 18-18. Academic Search Premier, Accessed 21 January 2020. This article reports the findings of Common Sense Media’s Survey of 1,141 teens, which found that the impact of social media depends largely on the personality of the user and the time spent on it. This proves that the effects of social media are complicated because it all depends on personalities and screen time. I know this is a reliable source because it was published in the School Library Journal, reports that findings of a large scale survey, and is fairly recent.

Academic Search Premier. Accessed 10 February 2020. This study surveyed 3,095 Spanish students from 12 to 18 years of age and found that the highest performing students spent only 2 hours and 20 minutes on screen media each day, sleeping an average of 9 hours per night. The lowest group spent 5 ½ hours per day on screen media, sleeping an average of 8 hours per night. This can be used to prove that the more time teens spend on screen media, the less sleep they get and the lower their academic performance. The article was published in a peer reviewed journal, has an extensove bibliography, and offers first - hand research.
