(she/her) NIHR School for Public Health Research Launching Fellow, University of Bristol. Young people’s mental health, social media use, suicide prevention
Really excited to start this project next year and to meet my fellow fellows tomorrow at @ChurchillFship launch event! My goal is to champion #algorithmicliteracy within the UK #esafety curriculum, empowering teens to control the content they view on #socialmedia
Congrats to @LizzyWinstone who's been awarded a prestigious @ChurchillFship Fellowship to develop a project to help young people understand how social media #Algorithms work.
She'll be visiting #SocialMedia companies, interviewing @DigitalMomentCA & more

New research published by @JacksBennett@LizzyWinstone and Nina Di Cara https://t.co/pe0sz87KEF. A really important read for all line managers and researchers working in #mentalhealth
New paper looking at the #mental health and #qualityoflife of #academicresearchers. Do we think systematically enough about the #wellbeing of researchers who work with challenging data in the same way we do (and clearly must) about our participants? https://t.co/OBxnTXo9GK
From scrolling through TikTok to asking Google for homework help, #algorithms are shaping young people’s everyday lives in powerful and often invisible ways. For https://t.co/w2PgxfWo5L, @LizzyWinstone highlights the importance of #AlgorithmicLiteracy.

@ChurchillFship report out today: Developing #algorithmicliteracy for positive #socialmedia engagement. https://t.co/jemfU3kD3t. UK #curriculum must change to support young people to leave school fully equipped for a life in digital society. 🚨Key recommendations below!
Do you want to co-create an art and wellbeing programme to help prevent anxiety and depression in schools?
Find out about a series of workshops for young people age 10-16, and adults, to develop the programme with University of Bristol researchers.

…Most IMV constructs associated with SHTBs concurrently (some also at the next time point). Study design & samples varied widely, making comparisons difficult.
We synthesised 58 papers using EMA to measure constructs inc thwarted belonging, defeat & entrapment.
Most IMV constructs vary over time for individuals but inconsistently…
8. @DCMS should develop a high profile & well resourced UK #medialiteracyweek to incl. high quality & evidence-based events & resources within schools, libraries, healthcare & other public spaces – to enhance digital, (social) media & algorithmic literacy among all age groups.

7. @educationgovuk & @SciTechgovuk should review provision and evaluate targeted programmes to enhance #digitalliteracy in disadvantaged groups (e.g. accessible & inclusive after school & holiday clubs). Ensure these include critical algorithmic literacy and functional skills.
