Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

The objective of this study is to advance understanding of the relationships between social media use (SMU) and internalizing symptoms among a diverse sample of depressed and/or suicidal youth. Youth (ages 13-18) enrolled in the TX-YDSRN registry study will be recruited for participation in SCREENS. After reviewing the Information Sheet, participants will complete baseline measures assessing internalizing symptoms (e.g., depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation/behavior), and trauma history. They will then complete ecological momentary assessments (EMAs) twice daily for 30 days via the mHealth app, capturing internalizing symptoms, emotional responses to social media, and in-person social support. The mHealth app will also collect the amount of social media use during this 30-day period. From Month 1 through Month 6, participants will receive monthly self-report surveys administered through REDCap. 100 participants This study will enroll youth from the TX-YDSRN registry study who meet all the following criteria: * Be between 13 and 18 years of age at the time of enrollment. * Be currently enrolled in the TX-YDSRN registry study and willing to allow sharing of data from that study. * Own a smartphone and agree to download and use the study mHealth application for the duration of study participation. * Be willing and able to participate in all study requirements and allocate sufficient time to complete study questionnaires and measures. Visits include a Screening Visit, Baseline Visit, EMA 2x daily for 30 days, 6 remote follow-up survey visits.
