p Self-harm has recently become a trend among adolescents with one of the main motivations being to alleviate negative emotions. This trend is widespread on social media and is also commonly found within peer groups. This study aimed to examine the influence of exposure to social media content and peer interaction on the motivation to engage in self-harm among adolescents. The research employs a quantitative correlational method involving 132 adolescents aged 11-20 years who actively use social media and have engaged in self-harm. Data were collected through questionnaires using Social Media Content Exposure Instruments Peer Interaction and the Inventory of Statements About Self-Injury (ISAS). The results indicate that both exposure to social media content and peer interaction significantly influence the motivation to engage in self-harm (p lt 0.001) and both factors contribute 34.4% to the motivation. However partially only exposure to social media content showed a significant influence on self-harm motivation. The implications of this study show the importance of paying attention to adolescents rsquo emotional and mental health as well as monitoring and educating the use of social media and peer interactions to prevent the negative impact of content or social interactions related to self-harm. /p
