摘要：The role of social networks in the cognitive benefit of modern societies is explored in this paper drawing from various studies and literature review. Social networks play a crucial role in the development of positive cognitive processes of an individual. Studies have indicated the various physical and cognitive impact of social networking among individuals, and even a recent tragic event will show that mankind is inherently social and that interaction with others will improve his thinking and reasoning process. Ways to maximize social networking online and offline should be considered by societies in order to minimize aggression, crimes, and even self-destruction.
