Dampak Penggunaan Media Sosial terhadap Interaksi Sosial Masyarakat: Studi Literature

Abstract

Mobile phones are a technological advancement that keeps up with the times. They are accompanied by the expansion of the internet, which has given rise to social media as a place for user interaction. The keywords "Social media impact," "The Impact of Social Media on Public Interaction," "Social media," "Community Social Interaction," and "The Impact of Social Media on Community Social Interaction" were used in this literature review study using the Google search engine and Google Scholar. This study's conclusion is that social media has both beneficial and harmful effects in real life. It can improve friendship networks, foster greater cooperation, lessen conflict, and have other positive effects. Direct engagement declines, disagreements increase as a result of social media's negative affects, and social media has the potential to alienate close friends and family members. Therefore, measures must be made to lessen the negative effects of social media use, including monitoring and controlling how youngsters use social media as a communication tool, using social media intelligently, and providing counseling as needed.
