Key Descriptive Findings Demographics: Teens in this sample are slightly older than IG US teen MAP. Behavioral Characteristics: Teens in this sample are more tenured and active than IG US teen MAP. Emotional Well-being: Across multiple measures, most teens in this sample reported high EWB; a substantial minority (20-30%, depending on the measure) report lower EWB. Body Image: Teens in this sample reported most frequent appearance comparison on TikTok and IG; almost one-third of teens reported high general body appreciation. Problematic Use: Teens' average scores across scales assessing sense of control (attentiveness and capability) indicate they report lower control, on average, over various aspects of their use of IG and TikTok compared to other apps. Positive Value: Most teens in this sample reported using IG at least some times for either creative expression, inspiration, advocacy, or idea exploration. PLTF EX-04353_0005 Slide 5 1 Unless we're fully measuring problematic use (rather than sense of control), let's be more specific and say either "sense of control" or "time management" Chad Kiewiet, 3/15/2024 PLTF EX-04353_0006 Background [Images: Surgeon General's Advisory "Social Media and Youth Mental Health"; American Psychological Association "Health Advisory on Social Media Use in Adolescence"] • Meeting and exceeding youth-related regulatory protections, which include key aspects of safety and well-being, is a priority for Meta, and the subject of significant external interest and concern (x, x, x). • External literature provides guidance about potential topical areas to focus on, but has significant limitations, including reliance on self-reports of social media use (x). • Making decisions about how to continue to improve Meta services to support teen well-being requires rigorous research that explores teens' experiences on Meta services over time (x, x). PLTF EX-04353_0007 Method • Between September and December 2023, a cohort of ~1,200 U.S. teen IG and/or FB users and their parents completed the first wave of a 4-wave longitudinal study that will follow the cohort over ~10 months [participant flow diagram]. • At each wave, teens and parents complete comprehensive online surveys that assess their social and emotional well-being. • Teens and parents were recruited, and the surveys administered, by an external partner, NORC. • Teens who completed the survey also linked to at least one of their Facebook and/or Instagram accounts, allowing collection of their server log data across multiple domains for the 28 days prior to survey completion. Timeline table (2023-2024): Wave 1: Parents & Teens (Sept-Dec 2023); Wave 2: Parents & Teens (Jan-Mar 2024); Wave 3: Teens (Mar-May 2024); Wave 4: Parents & Teens (Jun-Aug 2024). PLTF EX-04353_0008 Teens in this sample were slightly older than IG US teen MAP • The study sample was compared to the population of US teens (predicted age) who were monthly active users (MAP) on 12/22/23 along common characteristics, and weights generated in Gravitron. • Descriptive statistics are calculated based on unweighted data. • Inferential statistics use weighted data. Table: Teen Sample* vs IG US Teen MAP Gender: 52.2% Female, 41.7% Male, 6.1% Other (e.g., transgender) | 52% Female, 48% Male Age**: 55.7% 13-15, 44.3% 16-17 | 49% 13-15, 51% 16-17 Parent Educ.

Future analyses will use data from final participant cohort (n=1200) **Denotes this variable was statistically significantly different (p<0.05) between teens in this sample and IG US teen MAP PLTF EX-04353_0009 Slide 8 1 Do we know how this compares for FB? Ashley, 2/14/2024 3 Because almost all teen in this sample have IG accounts (and some also have FB or only FB), we are focused on IG MAP here. Once the participants list is truly final (last stage underway right now to do a final validation pass for all participants, including those who linked accounts through end-Jan), we'll do a comparison with FB MAP then. Anya Drabkin, 2/14/2024 2 can you provide a footnote explaining how to think about this? Chad Kiewiet, 2/16/2024 3 what are we weighting on and why are we weighting? would like to understand goals here. Is weighting necessary? Chad Kiewiet, 2/16/2024 1 Add means (SD) Anya Drabkin, 2/22/2024 4 this doesn't match the statistics in the table - if i'm reading this right, we have more 13-15s in the study than in MAP Chad Kiewiet, 2/22/2024 2 yeah - I will add in mean age for both. our sample is slightly older, because we have fewer 13 year olds. will make this clear Anya Drabkin, 2/22/2024 5 where are just college grads? very high if this is all graduate degrees Chad Kiewiet, 2/28/2024 PLTF EX-04353_0010 Teens in this sample were slightly more active and tenured than IG US teen MAP • The study sample was compared to the population of US teens (predicted age) who were monthly active users (MAP) on 12/22/23 along common characteristics, and weights generated in Gravitron. • Descriptive statistics are calculated based on unweighted data. • Inferential statistics use weighted data. Table: Teen Sample* vs IG US Teen MAP Account Tenure** (in days): Mean=1016.9 (SD=734) | Mean=811.3 (SD=695.7) Active Days** (in past 28): Mean=19.7 (SD=10.4) | Mean=18.3 (SD=10.5) Mobile Active Days** (in past 28 days): Mean=19.5 (SD=10.5) | Mean=18.2 (SD=10.6) #Followers**: Mean=186.3 (SD=495.5) | Mean=266.0 (SD=1302.7) #Following: Mean=301.3 (SD=646.7) | Mean=307.4 (SD=641.0) VPVs per day (in past 28 days): Mean=419.9 (SD=465.9) | Mean=350.9 (SD=542.5) *n=1077.

Scores on multiple measures of emotional well-being suggest most teens in this sample may not have been experiencing emotional challenges; scores suggest a substantial minority may have been • 38% of teens in this sample reported feelings of sadness/hopelessness that interfered with usual activities for at least 2 weeks in a row in the past 12 months. • 45% of parents reported someone in their family had experienced consistent challenges with emotions, concentration or behavior. • Overall, early teens and boys reported significantly higher EWB than late teens and girls. Chart: Percentage of teens in this sample reporting whether or not they experienced persistent feelings of sadness/hopelessness in the past 12 months (n=887 teens). Yes: 335 (38%). No: 552 (62%). "During the past 12 months, did you ever feel so sad or hopeless almost every day for two weeks or more in a row that you stopped doing some usual activities?" Chart: Distribution of teen EWB scale score; higher scores are indicative of higher emotional well-being overall (more positive, less negative). Bins and counts (approx, low to high EWB): 5 (0%), 27 (3%), 84 (8%), 163 (16%), 228 (22%), 236 (23%), 200 (19%), 89 (9%). *EWB (Emotional Well-Being): A composite scale comprising validated external scales indicating both positive and negative aspects of emotional well-being: PHQ8, GAD7, PSS, UCLA3, WHO5, and LIFESAT (std alpha=0.9). Higher values indicate higher emotional well-being. PLTF EX-04353_0013 Slide 10 7 are there external benchmarks on these scores? what do population distributions look like? Chad Kiewiet, 2/16/2024 PLTF EX-04353_0014 All results represent associations based on correlational data and are non-causal. Teens in this sample reported most frequent appearance comparison on TikTok and IG; almost one-third of teens reported high general body appreciation • Appearance comparison (AC*) scale scores varied significantly across social media apps (highest on TikTok and IG; lowest on BeReal, FB, Twitter, and Messaging Apps like WA). • Almost one-third (29%) of the teens in this sample had a body appreciation scale (BAS*) score indicating high general satisfaction/appreciation with one's body; 10% had a BAS score indicating low general satisfaction/appreciation with one's body. Chart: Mean appearance comparison scale scores across social media apps teens' reported using (0=Never, 4=Extremely often): TikTok N=816: 1.81; Instagram N=940: 1.59; Snapchat N=798: 1.24; Other social media app N=132: 0.95; YouTube N=908: 0.92; BeReal N=296: 0.73; Facebook N=647: 0.73; Twitter N=346: 0.71; Messaging and Group Chat apps (e.g., WhatsApp, Discord) N=615: 0.67 Chart: Distribution of teens' body appreciation scale scores (n=1071), Mean=3.6. Bins and counts (low to high): 24 (2%), 12 (1%), 14 (1%), 60 (6%), 74 (7%), 68 (7%), 128 (12%), 236 (22%)[approx], 146 (14%), 102 (10%), 103 (10%), 71 (7%), 54 (5%), 173 (17%) *AC: Composite scale across two items (alpha=0.88): How often they "compare their appearance to the appearance of other people on [app]" and how often they "felt worse about their appearance after viewing posts on [app]". Response options ranged from Never (0) to Extremely Often (4). **BAS scores averaged across 3 items that asked how often teens reported "respect for", "love for", and appreciation for "different and unique characteristics of their body". Response options ranged from Never (1) to Extremely often (5). PLTF EX-04353_0015 Slide 11 8 does this account for frequency of use? Chad Kiewiet, 2/16/2024 9 I think it would be informative to look at the distributions of these scales Chad Kiewiet, 2/16/2024 PLTF EX-04353_0016 All results represent associations based on correlational data and are non-causal. Teen average scores on subscales assessing their sense of control over use varied by app and were generally lower for IG and TikTok • Teen average attentiveness scale* scores varied significantly by app; average scores for IG and TikTok indicate teens perceive they, on average, frequently "spend more time" than desired, "check [these apps] out of habit", and "get caught up viewing content" on these apps. • Teen average capability scale* scores varied significantly by app (though showed a tighter range than attentiveness scale scores by app); average scores for IG, Snapchat, and TikTok indicate teens perceive they, on average, feel somewhat to very confident in their ability to "control the amount of time they spend", "reduce how often they check", and "stop interacting with others" if desired on these apps. • 22% of teens in this sample reported that their use of IG "often" or "all the time" takes priority over other areas of their life (e.g., work, school, relationships). Chart: Teen mean attentiveness scale scores across apps (0=All the time, 4=Never, greater is better): BeReal N=299: 3.03; Twitter N=350: 2.78; Facebook N=654: 2.64; Other social media app N=132: 2.49; Messaging and Group Chat apps (e.g., WhatsApp, Discord) N=619: 2.4; YouTube N=916: 2.04; Snapchat N=803: 1.81; Instagram N=947: 1.68; TikTok N=829: 1.16 Chart: Teen mean capability scale scores across apps (0=Not at all confident, 4=Extremely confident, greater is better): BeReal N=298: 3.32; Twitter N=349: 3.27; Facebook N=653: 3.14; Other social media app N=132: 2.84; YouTube N=914: 2.74; Messaging and Group Chat apps (e.g., WhatsApp, Discord) N=617: 2.68; Instagram N=945: 2.51; Snapchat N=803: 2.32; TikTok N=825: 2.17 *Attentiveness and capability scale scores are computed by averaging across groups of 3 items each; items assess teens' perceived control over various aspects of their use of specific social media apps. Response options for attentiveness items range from All the time (0) to Never (4); and for capability items range from Not at all confident to Extremely confident. PLTF EX-04353_0017 Slide 12 4 yes - asked for each respondent for each app they reported using Anya Drabkin, 2/16/2024 10 did we ask about other apps? Chad Kiewiet, 2/28/2024 11 how does IG compare to these other apps on this question? Chad Kiewiet, 2/28/2024 PLTF EX-04353_0018 All results represent associations based on correlational data and are non-causal. Most US teens in this sample* reported that IG helps them express themselves creatively, explore new ideas, or see things that inspire them • A majority of US teens in this sample report that IG helps them "creatively express" themself "a moderate amount" (38%), "a lot" (18%), or a "great deal" (7%). • A majority of US teens in this sample report that IG helps them "explore new ideas" "a moderate amount" (36%), "a lot" (12%), or a "great deal" (5%). • A majority of US teens in this sample report that they see things on IG that "inspire them" "sometimes" (43%), "often" (30%), or a "very often" (9%). • 42% of US teens in this sample report that they use IG "to advocate for issues that are important" to them "sometimes" (27%), "often" (10%), or "extremely often" (5%). Chart: Percentage of teens reporting how much value they get from using IG (n=951 teens). None at all: 103 (12%); A little: 242 (27%); A moderate amount: 301 (34%); Quite a lot: 142 (16%); A great deal: 99 (11%) *n=935-951, depending on question. Future analyses will use data from final participant cohort (n=1200) PLTF EX-04353_0019 All results represent associations based on correlational data and are non-causal. Parents of US teens in this sample reported a variety of ways they think social media and IG play a role in their teen's life • Between 23%-72% of parents reported that they think IG helps their teen accomplish 9 valuable/meaningful tasks. • "Being exposed to explicit content" (48%) and "being distracted from completing homework" (48%) were the concerns about teen social media use that more parents reported feeling "very" or "extremely" worried about. • 61% of parents reported they "somewhat", "very much" or "extremely" think that IG plays a positive role in their teen's life. Chart: Percentage of parents reporting that using IG helps their teen to accomplish positive tasks (n=780 parents). "Using Instagram helps [TEEN]": Connect in meaningful ways with friends or family who live close by (72%); Connect in meaningful ways with friends or family who live far away (63%); Express themselves creatively (55%); Discover or explore their interests and passions (55%); Connect in meaningful ways with people who share common interests or passions (49%); Keep up with current events (39%); Explore their opinions on important topics (28%); Explore their identity (25%); Learn and practice new skills (23%); Learn how to manage challenging social situations (14%); Get help or support when they need it (8%); None of these (3%) PLTF EX-04353_0020 Slide 14 12 can we pull out another slide on concerns? Chad Kiewiet, 2/28/2024 PLTF EX-04353_0021 All results represent qualitative analysis based on correlational data and are non-causal and directional. Qualitative content review suggests there may be individual differences in the amount and type of sensitive topics different teens see; Mature Themes and Harm & Cruelty topics may be an efficient target for prioritization • ~Half (50%) of the content disproportionately seen by US teen girls in this sample with lower emotional well-being (EWB) fell into a topic teens/parents think is potentially sensitive (most common topics: Mature Themes, Suffering, & Harm & Cruelty). • Because external literature, professional advisories, and experts we have consulted (x, x, x) suggest teens with lower EWB may be particularly susceptible to potentially sensitive content (especially content focused on mental health struggles), these topics represent potential areas for prioritization for product or policy work. The Suffering topic (Mental Health Challenges subtopic) may be an important target for product/policy work, given it was the only topic disproportionately seen more by girls with low EWB. • Prioritizing Mature Themes (esp. non-violating, sexually suggestive content) and Harm & Cruelty (esp. toxic narratives) may be a way to address the potentially sensitive content that may be disproportionately seen more by both US teen boys in general AND more susceptible US teen girls. Table: Number and proportion of disproportionately viewed content coded as potentially sensitive, and most common topics, by gender and EWB level; n=150 pieces of content reviewed per subgroup/cell. Irrespective of EWB - Girls: (36) 24% [Mature Themes (6%), Emphasis on Appearance (16%)]; Boys: (54) 36% [Mature Themes (16%), Risky Behavior (10%), Harm & Cruelty (10%)] Higher EWB (compared to lower EWB) - Girls: (28) 19% [Harm & Cruelty (6%)]; Boys: (52) 35% [Mature Themes (18%), Harm & Cruelty (10%)] Lower EWB (compared to higher EWB) - Girls: (75) 50% [Mature Themes (30%), Suffering (13%), Harm & Cruelty (10%)]; Boys: (22) 15% [Harm & Cruelty (7%)] *Method: Manual review, systematic coding, and descriptive analysis of ~900 pieces of content disproportionately viewed by subgroups of teens in the sample, according to EWB level and gender (n=150 pieces of content reviewed for each subgroup). Method accounts for content popularity (filtering out both most and least viewed content), for different numbers of teens who reported lower and higher EWB, and for the fact that teen girls were significantly more likely to report lower EWB than boys (24% of teen girls vs. 10% of teen boys reported lower EWB). PLTF EX-04353_0022 Slide 15 13 I'm having a hard time understanding this slide Chad Kiewiet, 2/16/2024 14 is this looking at pieces of content that were by multiple study participants? Chad Kiewiet, 2/28/2024 PLTF EX-04353_0023 All results are based on correlational data and are non-causal and directional. Quantitative review did not detect negative associations between proxies for age-sensitive content and emotional well-being • Proxies are available for some candidate age-sensitive topics, with strong limitations: i/ goodness of proxy is not known; ii/ proxies marked with * were only available for dates temporally after MYST survey; iii/ result marked ** uses slightly differing methods (see 'methods'). • No statistically significant negative associations were detected between these proxies and self-reported EWB (unexpectedly, some of the associations were positive but for males only). • These results do not suggest a specific topic to prioritize, but could have a number of causes (failure to detect an effect could be due to low sample size, use of proxies, data retention limitations [for predictors marked *], or no ground truth effect) Table: Type of Content | Proxies (IG Only) | Association With EWB Mature Themes: Explicit language | NA | NA (not tested) Mature Themes, Implied Harm & Cruelty: Sexual relationships, sexualized bodies, sexual objectification | SSPX; ANSA (p60-p80)* | Positive for ANSA, males only. Others: no association detected. Mature Themes: Political, controversial topics | FIT Politics; Social Issues; Health; Crime & Tragedy | No association detected Risky Behaviors: Substance use | FIT Alcohol; FIT Gambling; RGS (p60-p80)* | Risky Behaviors: Petty criminal behavior | FIT Crime & Tragedy | Emphasis on Appearance: Body ideals, appearance-focused content | FIT subtopics associated with AC | No association detected** Suffering: Death/suffering of people and animals; depictions of bodily harm | GV (p60-p80)* | Positive (males only) Suffering: Grief | FIT Crime & Tragedy | No association detected Implied Harm & Cruelty: Gratuitous violence, cruelty to people/animals | GV (p60-p80)* | Positive (males only) Implied Harm & Cruelty: Toxic narratives (hate, misogyny, bias), interpersonal abuse | HS (p60-p80)* | No association detected *Methods: Results are based on linear regression of a composite of 7 emotional well-being (EWB) scales against content seen on Instagram by wave 1 survey respondents in either the 28d before taking the survey (for FIT predictors), or, due to data retention limitations, a 13d time period after taking the survey (for integrity predictors); this implies lower confidence in results based on integrity predictors. Results include covariates for age, gender, total VPVs, and (for integrity predictors) 28 active days and follower count. **"Males only" results are based on fitting these same models to male vs. female respondents separately. Appearance-focused content results (**) are based on analysis of the same dataset by a different researcher; these results use the same outcome variable but differ slightly in variable transformations and/or selection of covariates. PLTF EX-04353_0024 All results represent associations based on correlational data and are non-causal. US teens in this sample who saw a greater % of appearance-related FIT subtopics reported more appearance comparison (AC) • Prior research identified a list of FIT subtopics, that when viewed in greater proportions, were associated with worse survey measures of appearance comparison. We manually reviewed content and narrowed the list in H2 '23. Topics include "Lip Makeup (product)" and "Fashion Photography." • Viewing a greater proportion of these FIT subtopics was associated with more frequent and more negative appearance comparisons on IG, even after controlling for teens' general body satisfaction, age, and gender identity. • These findings extend prior AC work by: 1. Validating FIT topic refinement analyses conducted in H2'23, suggesting they are reasonable to use for AAC (YWB) and AC (IGMWB) workstreams. 2. Indicating that there is an independent relationship between teens' FIT topic exposure on IG and teen AC that is not likely explainable by teens' other relevant characteristics (e.g., how satisfied they are with their bodies in life more generally). This suggests that changing FIT topic exposure may be a way to reduce AC (experiment brief). PLTF EX-04353_0025 Slide 17 15 I know we are pointing to "associations" but I think we consider reframing this slide (and some of the other ones) around descriptive questions. e.g., Among teens who reported higher levels of appearance comparison, what FIT subtopics did they see disproportionately? Chad Kiewiet, 2/16/2024 16 Secondly, to avoid misinterpretation of what we can say with this data, we need to be clear that we can't say anything about direction of causality, i.e., whether this relationship is due to exposure or due to self selection Chad Kiewiet, 2/16/2024 PLTF EX-04353_0026 Q1 Planned & In-flight Analyses • For full analytic details, see here. • We have prioritized analyses that support in-flight product workstreams.
