About the study

I have developed the Social Brain application for users older than 18 years, currently using an Android operating system mobile, and use social media frequently. To examine the effect of social media platforms on mental health and family functioning. In addition to exploring to what extent cultural differences influence this effect.

-The application will give you weekly results showing you how much time you spend on social media platforms, your mental health status, and your family functioning status.
- The application provides optional puzzles.
- The application will access your phone usage statistics, but no data will be collected without your consent and all collected data will be completely confidential.
