  7. Abstract:
  8. For more than two decades psychologists and sociologists have been warning about the damage of new social media. in the last decade, the neurological research has been developed to provide an empirical foundation to support the above hypothesis. Much of the research has focused on teenagers and young adults as the so-called digital native and as the largest number of social media users. They hold that a significant contribution to the adolescent trend plays a significant role in the tendency of individuals toward social media, thus increasing impulsive behavior. The three parts of the brain, namely the "social cognition network," the "self-referential cognition network" and the "reward network", which shows more activity when people are using social media . The reward mechanisms that have been defined in the media and the neurological changes of the brain during the adolescence, cause more stimulate and activity in the three regions, which in turn, is an important booster in the growing use of social media. addiction to social media is the most important issue in the field of pathology of this field that has created several challenges. in this thesis , we review various aspects of addiction to social media , we also review other problems such as loneliness ,depression and memory weaknesses. We continue to show how peer influence , social media multitasking, and common media syndromes endanger people's health. finally , we emphasize that this research has some limitations , but these limitations do not impair the validity of the results of the research
