The ubiquity of social media in a teenager’s daily life is no secret, as 97% of teens use at least one major online platform, and 45% stay online “almost constantly. Although we are still trying to understand the benefits and risks of extensive media use, some research has suggested that YouTube may promote the normalization of nonsuicidal self-injury among youths, and it may facilitate the rapid spread of harmful trends, such as the Tide pod challenge, among teenagers. A comprehensive search was conducted on two different computers separately using all the relevant and possible permutations and combinations of the keywords “suicide,”“suicidal,”“adolescents,”“adolescence,”“teens,”“teenage,”“teenager,” and “teenagers” on YouTube between December 18, 2018 and December 21, 2018. This study was motivated by a concern about what youths would be exposed to around the topic of suicide on You-Tube. The most encouraging finding is that close to 80% of the videos on teenage suicide present educational content or promote awareness of the issue. There are multiple limitations to our study. We limited our search to videos with 1000 views only; our findings primarily apply to English-speaking viewers; and we did not use keywords that were not age specific, such as “boys” and “girls.” We do not have information on the demographics of the viewers, and a small, but substantial, portion of view counts could be attributed to concerned parents and caregivers. In conclusion, although this study was encouraging, ongoing research into social media and its risks and benefits as well as how mental health professionals, parents, and concerned adults can protect youths engaged in social media is warranted.(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2022 APA, all rights reserved)
