Requirements

1) To answer this part of the question, you will have to review information from your textbook on the trait approach (Chapter 7 & 8). However, this will not be sufficient as the information in the textbook is limited and also unlikely to touch on this exact subject matter.

2) You are required to do additional research and cite at least THREE journal articles or book chapters of published books (excluding the textbook).

I have attached another journal article which you might find useful.

3) Discuss and relate the relevant theories and concepts on social anxiety to this topic of social media anxiety.

4) You will need to cite all sources and provide complete references in APA style.

5) When planning and writing the essay, do remember that an analytical argument and critical evaluation will gain more marks than a descriptive essay.

6) Being concise is also a good academic skill, so be cautious with your word count and reduce irrelevancy and meandering sentences.
