@justinpatchin That's actually the point we were trying to make about the potatoes comparison. And we are *not* saying social media and heroin are equally harmful. Full text of the article here: https://t.co/pkoqfVB8Cf

Great example of why statistics alone fail to fully capture the essence of a relationship. Irresponsible to suggest social media use as harmful for youth as heroin use without much more evidentiary context.

if you work on twitter safety how do we protect scientists and others with low follower count (and their extremely important work) from responses like these?
Interestingly, I don't see 'heavy drinking' listed here as a risk factor, and that seems like a kind of meta-irony because this graph has me on my second cocktail.
@cjsewall9 Uh, the potatoes = social media claim is pretty darned extraordinary (and, as we show, wrong). And I am *not* stating that social media is more harmful than heroin. See the full text here: https://t.co/pkoqfVB8Cf

@graykimbrough Nope. These are based on *all* of the well-being measures in the dataset, just like their paper. There are good theoretical and practical reasons to focus on girls and social media. https://t.co/pkoqfVB8Cf

Wow. For girls, social media use is far more important than exercise, or even than heroin use, in predicting emotional well-being.

The obvious problem here is that screen time is not heroine, and it's only through statistical oddities like standardization that we fool ourselves that an hour of screen time can be in any way compared to an ounce of heroin
Jean Twenge reminds us that if we run enough linear regressions with an intended result, some of the correlations may go in the direction we would like! Perhaps we need an economist to test whether all of these relationships are actually best fit with a c
