The Social Media Disorder Scale is a nine-item scale that measures problematic social media use (SMU) among adolescents. After taking the survey, I’ve scored 1/9. Although I am addicted to social media, I don’t stay on it as much because there are other things to do to keep me occupied. All the items on the scale are a good way to determine if you’re truly addicted to social media and need help to combat this addiction. In some other countries, it’s based on gender differences. Most girls are addicted because of role models and are most likely at risk of cyber victimization compared to boys.
