According to a March 2024 survey conducted in the United States, 32 percent of adults reported feeling that social media had neither a positive nor negative effect on their own mental health. Only seven percent of social media users said that online platforms had a very positive effect on their mental health, while 12 percent of users said it had a very negative impact. Furthermore, 22 percent of respondents said social media had a somewhat negative effect on their mental health. Is social media addictive? A 2023 survey of individuals between 11 and 59 years old in the United States found that over 73 percent of TikTok users agreed that the platform was addictive. Furthermore, nearly 27 percent of those surveyed reported experiencing negative psychological effects related to TikTok use. Users belonging to Generation Z were the most likely to say that TikTok is addictive, yet millennials felt the negative effects of using the app more so than Gen Z. In the U.S., it is also not uncommon for social media users to take breaks from using online platforms, and as of March 2024, over a third of adults in the country had done so. Following mental health-related content Although online users may be aware of the negative and addictive aspects of social media, it is also a useful tool for finding supportive content. In a global survey conducted in 2023, 32 percent of social media users followed therapists and mental health professionals on social media. Overall, 24 percent of respondents said that they followed people on social media if they had the same condition as they did. Between January 2020 and March 2023, British actress and model Cara Delevingne was the celebrity mental health activist with the highest growth in searches tying her name to the topic.
The interview protocol aims to gauge their perceptions and responses toward brand activism, with a focus on their interactions with brands endorsing social issues. Within this dataset, interviewees unpack their perspective on Gen Z attributes and evaluate their resonance with prevalent depictions. Central to the interview is the participants' feedback on prominent brand campaigns such as Nike's "JUST DO IT," Gillette's "We Believe," and Libresse/Bodyform's "Viva la Vulva," to name a few. Their analyses unveil perceptions of brand genuineness, the synergy between a brand's image and its advocated social concerns, and the overarching ramifications of brand activism on consumer purchasing decisions. In addition, the dataset broaches essential themes like social credibility, the influence of brand spokespeople, geographical variances in brand activism, and the prospective outcomes for customer fidelity and product pricing. This collection offers an in-depth glimpse into the intricate dynamics between Gen Z and brands during this period of intensified social and political awareness. This dataset comprises qualitative data obtained from interviews with 37 individuals from the Gen Z demographic, predominantly aged between 20-25 years. Of these participants, 53.3% identified as male (n=20), 40% as female (n=15), and 6.7% opted not to specify their gender (n=2). The participants for these interviews were strategically sourced using the snowballing technique between 2021 and 2022. Among them, 33 are international young adults who, at some point within the last 1-2 years, were studying or employed in the Netherlands. It is noteworthy that between October 2021 and February 2022, the Netherlands observed a stringent lockdown, mandating remote work. Consequently, some interviewees, despite affiliations with Dutch organizations, were in their home countries during their respective interviews. The distribution of participants based on their continents of origin, namely North America, Europe, and Asia, and taking into account their place of residence in instances of dual citizenship, is detailed as follows: 1) Europe has the predominant representation with a sum of 20 participants; 2) North America consists of 7 participants, all originating from the USA; 3) Asia comprises 6 participants spread across four countries: Vietnam, Indonesia, Japan, and South Korea. Additionally, 4) South America is denoted by one participant from Bolivia and another participant holding dual citizenship from Argentina but currently residing in the US.

In 2012, country music topped the list; 27.6 percent of respondents picked it among their three favorite genres. A year earlier, the result was one percent lower, which allowed classic rock to take the lead. The figures show, however, the genre’s popularity across the United States is unshakeable and it has also been spreading abroad. This could be demonstrated by the international success of (among others) Shania Twain or the second place the Dutch country duo “The Common Linnets” received in the Eurovision Song Contest in 2014, singing “Calm after the storm.”
The genre is also widely popular among American teenagers, earning the second place and 15.3 percent of votes in a survey in August 2012. The first place and more than 18 percent of votes was awarded to pop music, rock scored 13.1 percent and landed in fourth place.

The younger generation is also widely represented among country music performers with such prominent names as Taylor Swift (born in 1989), who was the highest paid musician in 2015, and Hunter Hayes (born in 1991).
Country music is also able to attract crowds (and large sums of money) to live performances. Luke Bryan’s tour was the most successful tour in North America in 2016 based on ticket sales as almost 1.43 million tickets were sold for his shows. Fellow country singer, Garth Brooks, came second on the list, selling 1.4 million tickets for his tour in North America in 2016.
