The Tie Between Tech & Anxiety
Manage episode 418685271 series 2538523
A great deal of research has found that "Gen Z," specifically those born after 1995, is the generation being hit the heaviest by the mental illness epidemic -- as rates of anxiety, depression, and suicide skyrocket among young people. What is the biggest change this generation has experienced in life? The birth of smartphones and social media.
Author of 'The Anxious Generation,' Jonathan Haidt shares the evidence he's seen that reveals how technology plays a role in Gen Z's poor mental health, why parents didn't recognize the damage smartphones could do until it was too late, and the ways society can adapt our behavior (especially in our households) to revolve less around technology.
