The report is from the Danish Competition and Consumer Authority, published in June 2025. The report documents an experiment in which 269 Danish adolescents (ages 13–17) participated in a field study involving three behavioral interventions—reflection, planning, and delay—using the app one sec. The aim was to explore how simple strategies could reduce young people’s social media use without diminishing the user experience.
The report concludes that small, well-designed, and non-intrusive interventions can help young people gain better control over their media habits. This opens the door to greater digital autonomy—without moralizing or banning technology.
