Social media have become an integral part of everyday life for most people. Many of us follow companies on social media and react to images and campaigns that resonate with us. Each post and each “like” also contributes to a continuous exchange between companies and consumers about what is regarded as ethical, valuable and legitimate on social media. These findings are presented in a new doctoral thesis from Åbo Akademi University, where Anna Granstedt explores how organisations and users together shape norms and values on platforms such as Instagram.
A new tool that not only identifies diet and nutrition misinformation online but also evaluates the content’s risk for potential harm has been developed by a team of UCL researchers.

Play is critical for kids’ development — but ‘play’ in research is often defined by adult scientists, not the children themselves. To understand what kids really need, a team of scientists in Denmark asked them, developing a special questionnaire based on children’s own words to rate play experiences. They found that children’s idea of ‘good’ play sometimes isn’t what adults would consider ‘nice’ play, potentially involving competition or mischief — but in order to have fun, kids always need social alignment with their peers and opportunities to take part. The researchers say these results show kids need more agency in how they play.
