Dr. Purba’s presentation examines how social media and other digital environments function as “digital determinants of health,” shaping adolescent wellbeing through the ways content, algorithms, and online interactions influence behavior. Drawing on public health and causal inference methods, she focuses on identifying measurable causal links between social media use and adolescent risk behaviors, while also considering how these effects emerge during a critical developmental period and may contribute to broader health inequalities at the population level.
