ABSTRACT

Sleep deprivation is the basic problem in today’s world encounter. From 10 year olds to
40 year, an inadequate sleep time has been offered off late. As students, the need to tap this
problem and identify a constructive pattern is required. Thus a basic data analysis has been
carried out to study how social media attributes to procrastination of work and disturbed
sleep cycle subsequently. The data analysis tool, Rapid Miner studio has been used for this
purpose. This topic was selected for its relevance to society at the present time. The paper
addresses how far a social media application has impression on the mental well being of the
users by analyzing their work-flow, and sleep patterns.

INTRODUCTION

American author Jay Baer once tweeted - “Everyone says social media is a unicorn, but
maybe it’s just a horse?” Perhaps, he was absolutely right! Modern study suggests that social
media correlates to lower self control. One from HP Labs discerned that people are more
open to peer pressure within social networks. Constantly checking your email on your smart
devices, switching over to Instagram to scroll for a bit, and then opening up Snapchat to
make sure you share exactly what you're doing to your network might make you think you're
good at multitasking. In reality, managing multiple accounts and switching your attention so
often and quickly worsens your ability to focus on multiple activities. The Proceedings of the
National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America published a study where
“Results showed that heavy social media multi-taskers are more susceptible to interference
from inapt environmental stimuli and from irrelevant representations in memory.” This
eventually leads to in-completion of their essential day-to-day tasks.

Melatonin is the hormone in our body that regulates sleep. High levels of melatonin can
help us sleep while low levels can keep us awake. Harvard Medical School says that any
kind of light can reduce how much melatonin your body takes. However, blue light, that is
emitted from the screens of our smartphone, lessens our melatonin levels additionally. That
said, social media scrolling, particularly at night time, will place our circadian rhythm out of
tune.
 This research paper explores how social media ascribes to procrastination of work or
daily life rudimentary, yet essential duties. The impact escalates to higher level as this online
phenomenon is increasingly ruling our lives. People who experience disturbed
work-cum-sleep cycle should restrict their use of social media, in order to lead a healthy
lifestyle.
