👉 Dr. Emily Carter's research focuses on the impact of social media on adolescent mental health, specifically exploring how different types of social media engagement—such as passive scrolling versus active interaction—affect self-esteem and anxiety levels among teenagers. Her study employs a mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative surveys to measure psychological outcomes with qualitative interviews to gain deeper insights into participants' experiences. By analyzing these data, she aims to identify specific strategies that can mitigate the negative effects of social media on young people's mental well-being, contributing to more informed guidelines for parents, educators, and policymakers.
