This book explains some of the effects of social media addiction, which is usable for research. It also focuses on some of the psychological effects of SNS addiction (FOMO, Narcissism, Emotional Regulation). This branches off into the world of social media addiction, which is a branch under the tree of internet addiction. Could use this for going in depth on some of the specific reasons for internet addiction.
