Exploring Korean adolescent stress on social media: a semantic network analysis.

Background: Considering that adolescents spend considerable time on the Internet and social media and experience high levels of stress, it is difficult to find a study that investigates adolescent stress through a big data-based network analysis of social media. Hence, this study was designed to provide basic data to establish desirable stress coping strategies for adolescents based on a big data-based network analysis of social media for Korean adolescent stress. The purpose of this study was to (1) identify social media words that express stress in adolescents and (2) investigate the associations between those words and their types.

This study was designed to pick out social media words that express adolescents' diet behaviors, and identify the associations and types between such words and the behaviors. It used text-mining techniques and semantic network analysis for related big data collected from the Internet on adolescents' diet behaviors.
