Dylan Young is a second-year master’s student in psychology at Arizona State University. His research interest broadly focuses on perceptions of mental health, mental health stigma and misinformation on social media, and the ways in which social media shapes perceptions of psychological disorders. He also has experience with studying cyberbullying, media-based interventions, and social media use behaviors.

His current research examines how the trivialization of ADHD on TikTok influences perceptions of the disorder. After completing his master’s degree at ASU, Dylan plans to pursue a Ph.D. in social psychology, communication, or a related field.
