Summary
This study translated and tested a French version of a parent questionnaire designed to identify problematic social media use in children aged 10 to 17. Researchers recruited 300 parent-teen pairs from a hospital in France. The goal is to give parents a reliable way to spot unhealthy social media habits, since teens often underestimate their own use.
