Studies in the field of cyberpsychology and human behavior tend to link "ex-partner surveillance" on social media with poorer emotional recovery after breakups, including higher levels of distress, stronger longing, and less personal growth. "These findings are indicators that individuals haven't let go," said Michelle Drouin, a professor of psychology at Purdue University Fort Wayne, Indiana, US. "That impedes recovery and increases the emotional trauma, or the connection to the past partner."
