This workshop is presented by a coalition of state, provincial and territorial psychological associations, and organized by the Vermont Psychological Association.

Using theories and methods from developmental cognitive neuroscience and developmental psychopathology, this course describes how adolescents' social media use may confer benefits and risks for adolescents' psychological, social, and neural development. Topics include the role of social media on adolescent body image, how social media impacts sleep and brain development, and what parents can do to help their adolescent navigate social media in more healthy ways.
