Analysing how mental health is defined by applying the perspectives in psychology.
The purpose of this video is to give a basic understanding of how people argument when they talk about behavior and thought processes. It gives us the ability to make sense of measures, which people advocate for, when it comes to how social media and internet affect our mental health.
(We will talk more about that in the following episodes of "Mental Health & Digitalization - The Series".)
This video does not claim to cover the perspectives in psychology in its whole, but rather wants to give a general overview of the most important aspects regarding this topic.

- As the evolutionary perspective can be seen as subcategory of the biological perspective, Charles Darwin can be seen as proponent of the biological perspective. I think what I tried to say is that he doesn't represent the biological perspective in its entirety.

Social Media and Internet usage is increasing as well as the importance and dependency of those things. That's why it is important to look at how digitalization contributes to the occurrence of mental health disorders.
This video is the introduction of a series with multiple episodes talking about the link between mental health and the exposure to social media and internet.
For more detailed information on different definitions of digitalization I would recommend you to watch my video about physical health and digitalization: https://youtu.be/yr7WW0QlU9Y
| Changes & Mistakes |
- In the beginning I say that the series is called "social media, internet and digitalization". Instead of digitalization I of course meant mental health.

| Corrections |
- It is correct that ADHD can show itself only through inattention, only through hyperactivity or as a combination of both. What I messed up though are the terms. There is no "HD" and the term "ADD" is obsolete. You always say ADHD no matter what of the mentioned symptoms are present.
