AI study uses clustering to find patterns in social media use and mental health

Researchers have developed a clustering-based approach using unsupervised machine learning to analyze the relationship between social media usage and mental health. The study segmented 551 participants into six distinct clusters based on their social media habits and psychological well-being. Findings revealed patterns, including a 0.28 correlation between hours spent on social media and reported anxiety levels. AI
