Whether it be social media use or access to pornography, are there valid studies that have looked into this? I feel like I’ve only seen anecdotes, or “inappropriate for children”, but no evidence, studies, or journals to support this claim.

You’d look for studies about the effects of that stuff on developing minds. And then studies that show the efficacy of age verification on keeping underaged people out…
Are you saying you tried to find both of those and came up empty handed?
Or did you not try that and are just asking for someone to provide studies for you?
More of the first one you mentioned. I tried once, and I had little luck. I found one that had what I thought was poor methodology. I didn’t keep a link.
I searched:
And this was the first result on duckduckgo

It’ll be easier to read than straight studies, but it cites a couple you could read if the article doesn’t give enough info
Thanks for the link, I’ll peruse and see what I see.
