Teenagers are among the most prolific users of social network sites (SNS). Emerging studies find that youth spend a considerable portion of their daily life interact- ing through social media. Subsequently, questions and controversies emerge about the effects SNS have on adolescent development. This review outlines the theo- retical frameworks researchers have used to understand adolescents and SNS. It brings together work from dis- parate fields that examine the relationship between SNS and social capital, privacy, youth safety, psychological well-being,and educational achievement.These research strands speak to high-profile concerns and controver- sies that surround youth participation in these online communities, and offer ripe areas for future research.
