    Social Media:  The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly 

    (4 continuing education credits)


    This workshop is presented by a coalition of state, provincial and territorial psychological associations, and organized by the Vermont Psychological Association.


    Eva H. Telzer, Ph.D.'s Profile

    Eva H. Telzer, Ph.D.

    Dr. Eva Telzer is a Professor of Psychology and Neuroscience at UNC Chapel Hill, and director of the Developmental Social Neuroscience Lab at UNC Chapel Hill.  She is an associate editor at Child Development and Social Cognitive Affective Neuroscience, and the co-director of the Winston National Center on Technology Use, Brain, and Psychological Development.  Her research examines how social and cultural processes shape adolescent brain development, with a focus on both prosocial and risk-taking behaviors, family and peer relationships, and the role of social media in youth’s lives.

    Dr. Telzer has authored nearly 200 publications and has received numerous awards for her work, including an Association for Psychological Science Rising Star Award, an early career award from the Society of Research on Adolescence, a Young Investigator Award from the Flux Congress Society for Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience, and the American Psychological Association Distinguished Scientific Award for Early Career Contribution to Psychology.  She is regularly featured as an expert in psychological science in consultation to government agencies and non-profit associations, as well in media appearances in The New York Times, NPR, CNN, ABC, CBS, and NBC.

    This course is designed to deconstruct the psychological science on youths' technology and social media use.  Using theories and methods from developmental cognitive neuroscience and developmental psychopathology, this course describes how adolescents' social media use may confer benefits and risks for adolescents' psychological, social, and neural development.  Topics include the role of social media on adolescent body image, how social media impacts sleep and brain development, and what parents can do to help their adolescent navigate social media in more healthy ways.

    Objective 1Identify psychological, social, and neural changes linked to social media use.

    Objective 2: Explain the benefits and risks of social media use.

    Objective 3: Evaluate the appropriateness of conclusions derived from psychological research.

    Objective 4: Apply psychological concepts, theories, and reseach findings on social media use to real-world situations.
