Q How influential are the media in affecting the self-esteem of adolescents? Would media affect the self-esteem of groups differently (e.g., gender. sexual orientation, race, etc)?
Adolescents are the developmental stage in which the most essential developmental task is to create self-esteem and a generally steady self-evaluation. Adolescent self-esteem is a crucial indicator of good peer attachment. The development of self-esteem is the most important aspect of adolescent development that can be impacted by the media. Media and social media have become so ingrained in adolescent lives that they cause anxiety and poor self-esteem.
