Summary

Social media is pervasively used in our life. There is a research hypothesis that the information in social media is "shallow" and the long-term use of it will cause readers' addiction, insomnia, and inability to pay attention, thus reducing the efficiency of learning and working. However, there is no systematic study on the relationship between "shallow reading" in social media and attention, addiction, sleep quality, and other mental health. Therefore, the investigators intend to explore the effect of "shallow reading" in social media on mental health based on about 300 healthy subjects by conducting questionnaire, cognitive scale assessment, multi-mode MRI scanning and EEG monitoring. A cross-sectional study will be combined with a longitudinal study to explore the clinical characteristics its relationship to brain function.
