Kurzfassung:
"The Darker Side of Social Media: Consumer Psychology and Mental Health takes a research-based, scientific approach to examining problematic issues and outcomes that are related with social media use by consumers. The researchers rely on psychology theory to help explain or predict problematic online behavior within the social media landscape through the lens of mental health. Aspects of mental health covered include disconnection anxiety, addiction to social media or the internet, eating disorders, and depression that may result from social media use or overuse. The book provides a framework in chapter one that maps out the proposed correlations in the context of social media. With an aim to provide solutions, the authors spotlight the key issues affecting consumer well-being and mental health due to the omnipresence of social media and overuse of such. The book dissects the unintended consequences of too much social media use, specifying key problems like disconnection anxiety, eating disorders, online fraud, cyberbullying, the dark web, addiction, depression, self-discrepancies, and serious privacy concerns (especially impacting children or young people). The book provides grapples with mental health disorders ranging from anxiety, depression, self-harm and eating disorders that can be intensified by, or correlated with, too much social media use. The authors meticulously review the various facets of the darker side of online presence and propose actionable solutions for each of the problems stated. The authors provide a conceptual model with propositions that are offered to scholars for continued research. This international exploration of social media is a must read for parents, social media users, scholars/managers of business, marketing, psychology, communication, management, and sociology. Students of marketing, advertising and public relations and those navigating new media platforms will also find this research useful. Last, policy makers and practitioners are encouraged to read these ideas and consider the proposed solutions"
