    The Association of Social Media with Anger and Psychological Well-Being Among Users and Non-Users
    (The International Journal of Indian Psychology, 2025) Om Pandey, Deepa Pandey, Jyotsana Shukla
    This study investigates the impact of social media usage on anger and psychological well- being by comparing users and non-users. Using standardized psychological measures, including the Bergen Social Media Addiction Scale, Buss-Perry Aggression Questionnaire, and Ryff's Psychological Well-Being Scale, the research assesses the relationship between social media engagement, aggression, and emotional health. Data analysis reveals a significant positive correlation between social media usage and aggression (r = 0.499, p < 0.01), indicating that frequent users exhibit higher levels of anger. Additionally, a strong negative correlation between social media use and psychological well-being (r = -0.548, p < 0.01) suggests that excessive online engagement contributes to lower emotional stability and life satisfaction. In contrast, non-users demonstrate lower aggression levels and greater psychological well-being.
