What is the social networking website's negative effects on people?
What is the social networking? • Social networking sites (SNS) have become a source for people to share their own experiences as they connect with other users and their experiences. SNS have become the present-day man’s third place (NMC 3). This “place” can be located at home and work (first and second places). These sites have become a way to connect with friends, family, and peers, and then to share photos, videos, stories, and let other users know what they are currently doing
Social Networking Allows to 1) construct a public or semi-public profile within a bounded system. 2) articulate a list of other users whom they share a connection 3) view and traverse their list of connections and those made by others within the system
Infantilism • Infantilism is the persistence of infantile characteristics in adult life. Much like babies or young children constantly need stimulus, many scientists fear this is exactly what is happening to the adult mind
attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder • The practice of logging on daily to see hundreds of new photos, comments, and user statuses have begun to take away our ability to keep our focus on something for more than an hour or two, making ADHD a very real and possible effect of SNS
Depression and Loneliness • When interacting with someone through text messages, instant messaging, or email, a large portion of how humans interact is gone.
Narcism • Narcism, or the excessive love or admiration of oneself, has become one of the largest problems, especially in SNS users. This way of self-entitled thinking is very dangerous for any person. This can negatively affect how we see ourselves, as well as how we treat and perceive others.
Hypothesis • Social Networking Sites become a larger portion of our lives; they have begun to damage their users, both mentally and socially.
