Major(s) of all individuals presenting this work Bio of all individuals presenting this work Hi I'm Hannah, I am a junior at Arnold High School. My research explores the relationship between age of first social media exposure and anxiety levels in high school students. I find this topic interesting because I think it is fascinating how different families have different rules regarding cell phones, social media, etc. Poster Title Abstract Social media use is common among adolescents, but early exposure may affect mental health. This study examines the relationship between the age of first social media use and anxiety levels in high school students. Using anonymous surveys, students will report the age they began using social media and complete the Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7) to measure anxiety. The study analyzes whether earlier exposure is associated with higher anxiety levels. Findings may help parents, educators, and schools promote healthier social media habits its and support student mental well-being.
