Psychologists find biggest effects in girls aged 11-13, while boys’ most vulnerable age seems to be 14-15

Psychologists found that girls who increased their time on social media between the ages of 11 and 13 were less satisfied with their lives one year later, with the same trend playing out in boys aged 14 and 15.
