Project

On Mood and Media: Disentangling the Relationship between Adolescents’ Affective Media Experiences and their Emotional Well-Being

This project introduces a model which explains positive and negative role of media use in depressive symptoms. In its process, the project will lead to a conceptualization of moderators in a theoretical structure which distinguishes levels of moderation. This project will therefore not only lead to a more advanced understanding of associations between media use and adolescent well-being, but will contribute to an improved conceptual model for explaining (differential susceptibility to) media effects.
