Abstract

This study addresses the influence of social networks on the behavior of adolescents aged 15 to 19 years at the Ángel Polibio Chaves School, in San Miguel de Bolívar. Through a quantitative approach, around 50 students were surveyed to analyze their use of digital platforms and their relationship with aspects such as social interaction, academic performance and emotional well-being. The results indicate that excessive use of social media is linked to increased levels of anxiety and low self-esteem, while students with moderate use of digital platforms tend to maintain better academic performance. It is concluded that social networks have a significant impact on the behavior of adolescents, both positive and negative, depending on their use.
