Participants will be asked to complete surveys and provide their Instagram data. This data will be used for research purposes only. All personally identifiable information will remain confidential. Participants between the ages of 13-17 may be asked to participate in a follow-up interview study involving teens and their parents. This study has been approved by UCF's Institutional Review Board and the researchers have obtained NIH Certificate of Confidentiality as a further protection of our participants.
