Description: This public report presents the findings of a nationally representative survey among 978 Dutch adolescents (14- and 15-year-olds). The report describes the most popular social media platforms, the frequency of use and the favored social media activities, and the mobile phone use habits of adolescents. It also sheds light on the extent to which adolescents compare themselves with others through social media and the feelings that arise while doing so. The report is part of Project AWeSome (https://osf.io/38qcg/). Please cite the report as van Driel, I. I., Pouwels, J. L., Beyens, I., Keijsers, L., & Valkenburg, P. M. (2019).
