INTRODUCTION

• Social media is widely used among rural youth in Bangladesh.


• Platforms like Facebook and TikTok influence their mental health
and academics (Aftabunnahar, 2023).
• Lack of digital literacy and parental guidance worsens the
problem.
• This research explores solutions to minimize negative impacts.
PROBLEM STATEMENT

• High social media usage among rural youth leads to:


- Poor mental health (anxiety, depression, cyberbullying)
- Academic distractions and lower performance
- Exposure to misinformation and online harassment
• Limited parental oversight and digital literacy worsen
these challenges.
RESEARCH OBJECTIVES &
QUESTIONS
Objectives:
• Identify types of social media misuse
• Assess mental and academic impact
• Analyze key driving factors
• Evaluate business solutions

Research Questions:
• How does misuse affect rural youth?
• What solutions can mitigate negative impacts?
LITERATURE REVIEW

• Studies link excessive social media use to:


- Increased anxiety, depression, and sleep issues
- Lower academic performance (Chowdhury, 2024)
- Cyberbullying and misinformation exposure (Ferdous &
Huda, 2023)

• Digital literacy is low, and parental guidance is minimal


(Haque et al., 2024).
• Research lacks focus on rural Bangladesh and gender-
specific insights.
THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK

• Socio-Ecological Model:
- Individual: Impulsiveness, addiction, lack of time
management
- Community: Limited digital literacy, lack of awareness

(Hammond et al., 2023)
• This model helps identify intervention points.

tabulation, visualization).
FINDINGS & ANALYSIS

• Excessive social media use correlates with:


- Increased anxiety and depression

social media use.
