AFFECTS THE INTERNET AS A YOUTH.
Internet has established itself in the lives of many people over the past two decades despite initial concerns that teens entering the 'unknown'. There are a number of risks for adolescents, suggesting that real relationships and friendships would be rejected by cyber relationships. But a study conducted by a group of Dutch researchers and published in the journal Current Directions in Psychological Science.
first approaches
Internet has become an instrument of social communication due to the increasing number of teenagers using technology at your fingertips. Just a decade ago, only one in ten adolescents had Internet access. Therefore, teenagers were forced to choose between real and relationships online. The researchers said that because of the small overlap, adolescents had difficulty maintaining 'flesh while exploring cyberspace. "
Paradigm shifts
Now that most of the Western adolescents have Internet access, it was found that adolescents use technology to keep more than build nuevas.Además relations, the emergence of new communication tools helps teens to develop further existing relationships and not to isolate them. Valkenburg and Peter The teachers stated that teens who used the Internet in the nineties typically communicated with foreign channels via message exchange and multi-role games (MUD).
new situation
So, thanks to the influence of new social media websites, including MySpace and Facebook are included, and instant messaging (IM), the situation has changed. More than eight in ten teens use IM to connect with people they see every day.
conclusions
Researchers believe that ASCoR Internet provides teens the tools they need to open up and talk about personal issues: communication via Internet provides teens the boost they need because the distractions are minimal. The fewer distractions, the less influence they receive from the way people see them, according to Professors Valkenburg and Peter. The result reduces inhibition and causes more personal conversations.
Note
The research also showed that 'hyperpersonal chats over the Internet "fuels stronger friendships, which causes feelings of happiness and emotions devoid of stress. It should be noted that the mere fact of 'surfing' the Internet does not have any positive effect on adolescents, especially on their welfare or their feelings of connecting with others. Also, talk to strangers in public chat seems to be potentially dangerous.
