La función de las redes sociales en la lógica amorosa del adolescente.

Abstract

The purpose of this research was to analyze the role of social networks in the adolescent's love logic, through the descriptive method, semi-structured interviews and focus group to know the incidence of virtual platforms in the adolescent's love process, by means of a wide bibliographic review from psychoanalysis. The methodology chosen for the research process was through the qualitative approach from the descriptive method. This work focused on how social networks have revolutionized communication and connections between adolescents, since it is known that during this stage there is an intense exploration and development of self-identity, where social networks will be involved in the formation of the self and in the perception that the subject has of himself through the approval of the Other, but is it a disadvantage or an advantage when it comes to expressing their feelings? Is it possible to distort the perception of real love and generate unrealistic expectations in relationships? Are the fall of parents, the search for the love object, the formation of the ego factors that have been influenced by the use of social networks? These questions were developed from psychoanalytic, philosophical and sociological approaches.
