What's your participant id?

Please rate your ability to find what you are looking for on social media (e.g., connections, reliable information, or support when you need it) compared to other social media users with a scale from 0 – 10: 0 means 'I am so much worse than other social media users' 10 means 'I am much better than other social media users'

As we chat about making your social media interactions safer and more enjoyable, I'm going to ask a few questions. If you prefer not to answer anything, just respond with *skip*. Alright, let's do this, Allen!

I have a short video about the importance of being mindful while using social media. Care to watch? (Head's up, you'll be taken away from this chat, but I'll be here when you finish watching!)

Okay, we can show you the video later.

Thanks for answering! So, your score of 8.5 out of 10 on social media literacy tells me there could still be room for improvement to make your experience more enjoyable. I can offer you tips and tricks related to these topics. Which one do you want to start with? 1 - Reject negativity on social media 2 - Balanced engagement on social media 3 - Connecting with potential allies 4 - Keep my social media use in check 5 - Digital footprint and privacy 6 - Mental health 7 - Finish social media tips 8 - Menu

You know, many teens go on social media to make new friends, have fun, and build community with people who share their likes/dislikes. What happens, though, is that we sometimes have social media experiences that make us feel isolated and bring us down. But using social media more mindfully and intentionally might help in having better experiences on social media.

Awesome. I'm curious to hear more about how you'd like to make being on social media safer and more enjoyable, so I'm going to ask you a few questions.

These questions will ask you about how you think your social media skills (e.g., managing your privacy, connecting with others, finding information) compared to other people who use social media.

Your answers will help me understand what skills you already excel at, and what skills you may need to work on. Let's keep going, shall we?
