The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development awarded Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health $126,873 on September 1, 2026, under the Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.865) to conduct empirical research on child maltreatment as a risk factor for problematic social media use among adolescents. The recipient will investigate whether victims of child maltreatment are more vulnerable to problematic social media use and its negative effects on well-being, with particular attention to how developmental stage modifies these associations. The research will examine psychosocial pathways between social media use and adolescent mental health outcomes, addressing gaps in existing knowledge about disadvantaged and vulnerable populations. Performance occurs at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health in Boston, Massachusetts, with a period of performance from September 1, 2026, through August 31, 2031. This is a project grant, classified as assistance funding supporting the recipient's research mission.
