from Facebook can boost emotional well-being and life satisfaction, with the effects particularly pronounced among people who “lurk” on the social network without actively engaging with others, a study suggests.</p><p class="">The research, by the University of Copenhagen, showed the effects of quitting for a week were also strong among heavy users and those who envied their Facebook friends, suggesting people who pore irritably over the posts of others may benefit the most.</p><p class="">Report author Morten Tromholt, from the university’s sociology department, said the findings suggested that changes in behaviour — for example, heavy users reducing their time spent on Facebook, or lurkers actively engaging — could yield positive results.</p><p class="">But he indicated that people could find it difficult to change their behaviour — 13pc of the study’s participants who were supposed to be taking a break admitted to using the social network — and so quitting may be necessary.</p><p class="">The study, published in the journal Cyberpsychology, Behavior, and Social Networking, involved 1,095 people, 86pc of whom were women. They were randomly assigned to two groups: one which continued using Facebook as normal and one which stopped using the social network for a week.</p><p class="">On average, the participants were aged 34, had 350 Facebook friends and spent just over an hour a day on the social network.</p><p class="">Questionnaires conducted at the beginning and end of the week indicated that taking a break from the site increased life satisfaction and positive emotions. </p><p class="">The effects of quitting were found to be greater among heavy users, passive users and those who envied others on the social network. There was no positive effect of taking a break for light users.</p><p class=""><em>—By arrangement with The Guardian</em></p><p class=""><em>Published in Dawn, December 23rd, 2016</em></p> </div>
