Zheng Yan.  "What Influences Children's and Adolescents' Understanding of the Complexity of the Internet? " Developmental Psychology  42.3 (2006): 418. Platinum Periodicals, ProQuest. Web.  19 Jul. 2011.


I chose this article because it is a study that was done affecting the internet use and the social complexity of  the internet on elementary and middle school students. How the use of the internet affects these children can play a role in their social behavior.  It can help us understand what kind of side effects we can expect from constant internet use.

The three criteria are:
1.The academic discipline is Developmental Psychology.
2. It has an abstract summary.
3. It covers case studies and reports the research.
