With the rapid expansion of digital platforms becoming an integral part of everyday life, the relationship between the nature of this interaction and the self-perception of the youth is worth understanding. Combining quantitative questionnaires with qualitative interviews, the current research attempted to observe these subtle relationships closely. For this reason, the study aims to contribute useful insights to academic discourse as well as practical interventions that promote healthy digital habits among youth by way of a very salient concern: scrutiny of frequency, duration, and contents of engagement with social media and their impact on self-esteem.</p> Hanu Shashwat Muskan Singh Copyright (c) 2024 Hanu Shashwat, Muskan Singh https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 2024-10-22 2024-10-22 7 2 1 7
