Cross-sectional analysis reveals links between psychological distress, social media use duration, and problematic social media use in students, suggesting interventions may be needed.

Key Points

Logistic regression indicated that higher stress and social media use duration significantly increased odds of developing problematic social media use.
A cross-sectional study of 1139 university entrance test-takers in Bangladesh explored various psychosocial factors linked to problematic social media use.
Findings highlight the need for targeted interventions to reduce problematic social media use behaviors and enhance mental health support.
