Abstract: The present study was conducted in the city of Chandigarh. Through this study, various aspects of social media usage and their impact on the parentchild, peer-group, and teacher-taught relationships were examined. All the contemporary trends and purpose/s of social media usage were also examined. The data were collected both before the COVID-19 pandemic and during the COVID-19 pandemic. The key respondents of the study were the adolescents studying in Classes IX and XI. Parents of these respondents were also interviewed personally. Further, teachers teaching these respondents were also personally interviewed. While both quantitative and qualitative research methods were used, separate interview schedules were constructed for all three categories of respondents. Before finalizing these schedules, these were pretested on 27 respondents, i.e., 9 respondents from each of the three schools. After pretesting, irrelevant questions were eliminated, and a few questions were reframed. Apart from personal interviews, observation was also used wherever possible. Focus group discussions were conducted on groups of students, parents, and teachers to procure their responses. Case studies and narratives were recorded in the peculiar cases. The information retrieved from the three categories of respondents, i.e., students, their parents, and teachers, have also been incorporated in the form of simple frequency tables, which were made with the help of SPSS. Disaggregated data based on school, class, and gender have been presented and analysed. Inferences drawn from the data analysis have been discussed in the relevant chapters. The key findings of the study vis-à-vis previous studies and theoretical implications of the study have also been discussed. newline
