It's not the time spent on social media, it's the content. It's the content making everyone dumb and dumber.

How reliable is this study given that participants were asked to self report?

How else do you propose to measure mental health?

I know that self reported data is unreliable.

The person running this who was probably paid thousands of pounds worth of currency should have put in the time to produce a more accurate measure of mental health
