Complete the Social Media Disorder scale. How did you score? What do you think about the items in the scale? Why do you think that different patterns are found across the world?
After taking the Social Media Disorder Scale, I scored an 8.0. This would mean I am considered a disordered social media user. The items in the scale are honestly problems that many individuals face and I have even seen those issues within my younger sister and cousins. Different patterns are found across the world due to the fact that not everyone has the technology or internet needed to access social media. For example, in countries where there are high rates of poverty, the pattern may look different from the pattern from the United States.
