We talk a lot about why adolescent girls report more low mood and anxiety, and why this might be getting worse. But what do girls themselves think might explain this? As you might have guessed, we don’t really know. So, we asked them: doi.org/10.1186/s129... 1/8

Science misinterpreted again - this time by Australian govt to justify teen social media bans. Our work shows responses to social media vary individually. We never advocated for blanket bans. Happy to engage with MPs on evidence-based policy. Let's get this right! www.crikey.com.au/2024/11/20/t...
