Has Social Media Made People More Or Less Connected?

Social networking websites enable us to interact, exchange information, participate in activities, events, play games, and listen to music, all of which contribute to the creation of our own virtual social spaces where we can distinguish ourselves from other people. Although many of us love using social media to remain in touch, excessive use can lead to addiction, anxiety, melancholy, loneliness, and FOMO. Therefore, the current study is focused on how social networks have increased or decreased human connectivity.
