How are they defining social media use in their analysis?
Because I'm not sure "estimated time on social media" is really the best way to measure things.
The specific social media services used, and how they are used. Some services can be pretty bad if used in some common ways, but much better if used in a more carefully curated fashion.
Spending endless hours are a sensibly curated subset of reddit could easily be a whole less bad for ones mental health than just a few hours a week on some other services, especially if the user has not (or cannot) carefully curated their feeds on those other services.
