Abstract
In my research, I was trying to find out the good and bad effects of Snapchat on young adults. I wanted to know the effects it could have on me so I could reassess my daily use of this popular app. This research aims to show that the effects of Snapchat depend on how you use it. When used in a good way the benefits on young adults’ communication and other aspects in their life, outweigh the negative outcomes. In my research, I looked at articles from primary and secondary sources, interviewed some friends and family to get their opinion of Snapchat, and reflected on my own experiences. Although it can have bad effects and be used in bad ways, the benefits of Snapchat outweigh the negative effect on young adults and the many different aspects of their lives. In my research, I found that how individuals use the app determines the effects it has on them. Moving forward, I would like to make Snapchat a more positive thing in my life so I will be able to see the benefits of this popular app in my life.
