Note. Life satisfaction was measured with the SWLS (total); perceived social support was measured with the PSS with the subscale for friends; psychological distress was measured with the DASS21 (overall) and for each of the three subscales. All predictor variables were mean-centered. Social media mindsets were entered into the same regression model.
