Los medios de comunicación digital y su incidencia en los jóvenes de la ciudad de Méndez caso Unidad Educativa fiscomisional Italia. Un análisis al uso de redes sociales

Abstract

In the modern age, social networking and social media have a strong influence on the teen community, and such technologies are becoming more and more an everyday part of every person's life in today's society. Innovation in information technology is occurring at a rapid pace, bringing both positive and negative changes to the discussion of culture and society, having a significant impact on adolescents as they transition to adulthood. This study aimed to analyze the impact of social networks on the behavior of adolescents from 13 to 18 years of age in the city of Méndez in the Italian Fiscal Commission Educational Unit. Methodologically, it was developed as a descriptive, field, non-experimental cross-sectional study of 136 students from the Italian Tax Commission Educational Unit belonging to the first, second and third year of high school. In the results obtained through the survey, it was recognized that students have a positive view of social networks since they generally consider them very good, stating that their use helps them not to think about their problems. On the other hand, in the opinion of professionals, they consider that networks have positive and negative connotations for the lives of adolescents from different psychological, social and educational perspectives, the latter being the main negative factor that directly influences academic performance.
