Context
Early career researchers’ wellbeing has been addressed by several studies, in terms of what factors could impact their wellbeing, what favoured elements could be present in their work environment to promote their academic progress. Early career researcher refers to a duration within 1-7 years following PhD completion (Signoret et al, 2019). However, there is scarcity of resources linking that wellbeing to Social Network Sites(SNS) use and whether that could be a superadded dimension. Given the doubled edged sword of SNS use, hence, it is important to explore their impact on researchers’ wellbeing.
Programme Structure
A set of research questions that could be addressed:
- How SNS were used by researchers?
- What social, cultural dimensions, others (if any) could impact early career researchers’ wellbeing?
