Individuals with social anxiety tend to avoid direct social interactions and prefer online communication, which may increase the risk of social media addiction. This study aims to examine the relationship between social anxiety and social media addiction among adolescents and young adults. This research used a quantitative method with a correlational design. The participants consisted of 434 adolescents and young adults who actively use social media. Data were collected using social anxiety and social media addiction scales and analyzed using correlation analysis. The results showed a positive and significant relationship between social anxiety and social media addiction with a correlation coefficient of r = 0.161 and a significance value of p &lt; 0.05, indicating a weak relationship. In addition, most participants were categorized at a moderate level for both variables. These findings indicate that higher levels of social anxiety are associated with higher tendencies toward social media addiction, although the relationship is not strong. The implication of this study highlights the importance of individuals’ awareness in managing social media use to maintain a balance with direct social interactions.</em></p> Lidya Lolo Marimbunna Jusuf Tjahjo Purnomo Copyright (c) 2026 Journal La Sociale http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/ 2026-07-26 2026-07-26 7 4 1149 1161 https://www.newinera.com/index.php/JournalLaSociale/article/view/5123 <p><em>Corporate criminal liability in environmental pollution crimes in Indonesia. Corporations as subjects of criminal law have been recognized in Law No. 32 of 2009 concerning Environmental Protection and Management (UUPPLH). However, the application of criminal sanctions against corporations still faces challenges, especially in proving guilt and the effectiveness of sanctions. This study aims to analyze the legal basis, forms of accountability, and obstacles in the implementation of corporate criminal law in the environmental sector. The research method used in this study is normative juridical (legal research), namely research that focuses on examining the application of rules or norms in law. positive prevailing. The results of the study were obtained based on a Court decision regarding environmental pollution. In this case, the corporation was sentenced to a fine and required to repair the environmental damage. This case is evidence that corporations can be held criminally responsible in Indonesia. This study found several obstacles in the implementation of corporate criminal liability such as 1) Proving the element of fault, it is difficult to prove the intent or negligence of the corporation. 2) The effectiveness of sanctions or fines is often not commensurate with the environmental damage caused., 3) the existence of conflicts of interest so that law enforcement is weak due to economic and political interests. Suggestions to legal institutions are the need to increase the capacity of investigators in forensic audits and corporate law, strengthening the internal oversight system in enforcing legal accountability.</em></p> Gustika Sandra Rika Damayanti Muh.
