This study evaluates the effectiveness of an 8-week Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) intervention in reducing social media addiction among 22 adolescents. The program incorporated techniques such as body scan, sitting meditation, STOP, and RAIN meditation. Results indicated a significant reduction in social media addiction scores (p < 0.001, d = 1.68) and an increase in mindfulness levels (p < 0.001, d = 0.85). Specific dimensions, including mood modification, escape, and relapse, showed marked improvement, whereas withdrawal, deception, and conflict exhibited no notable changes. These findings underscore MBSR as a promising approach for addressing behavioral addictions and enhancing emotional regulation. © 2025 by the American Counseling Association.
