Social effects refer to the changes in behavior, attitudes, and interactions among individuals or groups within a society. These effects can arise from various factors, including cultural shifts, economic changes, or technological advancements. For example, the rise of social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter has transformed how people communicate and form relationships. Additionally, social effects can influence public health, education, and community dynamics. Events such as natural disasters or economic recessions can lead to increased social cohesion or, conversely, social unrest. Understanding these effects helps policymakers and researchers address societal challenges effectively.
