How many hours per day do you spend actively using social media (not counting passive background use)?
Estimate average daily time on apps like Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Twitter/X, Snapchat, or similar platforms.
How often does social media disrupt your work, study, or important tasks?
Consider interruptions, procrastination, or lost time due to checking feeds.
Do you use social media within an hour before bedtime?
Evening screen exposure and emotionally triggering content can affect sleep quality.
How often do you feel negative emotions (anxiety, envy, low mood) after using social media?
Assess emotional responses that might be linked to comparisons or content exposure.
Do you have set limits or rules for your social media use (time limits, no-phone zones, scheduled checks)?
Boundaries help maintain intentional and healthy technology use.
How intentional are you about the content you consume and the accounts you follow?
Consider whether your feed is curated for learning, relationships, and positivity, or is mostly passive/algorithmic.
How does social media impact your real-life relationships?
Think about whether it enhances connection, replaces face-to-face time, or causes conflict.
How proactive are you about privacy and security settings on social platforms?
Privacy controls reduce stress and unwanted exposure from social media use.
When you open social media, do you usually have a clear purpose (check messages, research, specific follow-ups) or do you browse without intent?
Purpose-driven use tends to be healthier and reduces time lost to mindless scrolling.
How ready are you to change habits if your social media use is causing problems?
Readiness affects how quickly you can implement improvements identified by this Technology Use quiz.
