The evolutionary perspective suggests that social media can hijack our evolved tendency to monitor for social cues and perceive social information as rewarding.
“Thus, the evolutionary perspective suggests that social media can hijack our evolved tendency to monitor for social cues and perceive social information as rewarding (28), and depressed individuals are especially vulnerable to being sucked in by social media as they experience a stronger need to alleviate feelings of insecurity, low self-worth, or hopelessness.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
