Abstract

Previous research demonstrates that ruminating on social media content is associated with greater mental distress. However, it is unclear what factors are associated with rumination. Using Self-Determination Theory, this study examined how orientation toward intrinsic and extrinsic life-goals differentially predicted social media rumination in a sample of racially and socioeconomically diverse high school students at two time points.
