Researchers are investigating the impact of heavy consumption of short-form videos on the brain, with concerns about potential negative effects on cognition, attention spans, impulse control, and mental health. Studies have found associations between excessive video consumption and symptoms of depression, anxiety, stress, and loneliness. While some experts caution against overreacting to the rise of short-form video, others highlight the need for further research to understand the long-term effects and potential risks associated with prolonged exposure. Despite the potential drawbacks, short-form video content also offers opportunities for learning and community-building online, emphasizing the importance of balance in media consumption.
