Communication, Social Media, Youth, Anthropology, Sociology
The lifeblood of a country is the youth. The youth are also the strength of the country. They contribute to the security of the country as well as the economy. As children grow to perfection, young people seek to build their identity in society. Thus, it is clear that youth is also the stormy season of life. Many things are changing with the advancement of technology in today's society compared to the past. The focus of the youth community is very significant. Today's young people are accustomed to being constantly in the face of the social media that has come with the advancement of communication technology. In the face of this situation, it seems that the youth are facing adverse conditions in the society. The various content and services obtained through social media cause mental confusion among the youth. The test question in the study is what are the adverse social conditions faced by the youth community due to their focus on social media? To go the main objective is to study the adverse social conditions faced by the youth due to their involvement in social media, to identify the relationship between the youth community and social media, to identify how social factors affect the adverse social conditions of the youth, and the adverse social conditions that the youth have. Among the specific objectives of the study are to identify the psychological factors that contribute to and to make suggestions for minimizing those adverse conditions. For the study, the youth community in the Palatota and Kalutara South Grama Niladhari Divisions of the Kalutara Divisional Secretariat Division in the Kalutara District were studied by 108 youths as a total sample fewer than 10% sample percentage. Systematic sampling was used to obtain information from databases. According to this study, the majority of those affected by social media use are young people between the ages of 19 and 22, as a percentage of 41.7%. The study also included 55 young men, 50.9% as female, 53% as female, and 49.1% as female. In particular, it can be concluded that young people are increasingly interacting with social media. Among the social ills that can be identified are various forms of abuse, financial fraud, mental confusion, family conflicts, casual relationships and disruption to education. The proposals include improving school knowledge about technology, establishing a set of rules for accessing social networking sites, providing a proper understanding of social media, and establishing a secure social networking system.
