Angeline Close Scheinbaum (Ph.D., The University of Georgia) is the Dan Duncan Endowed Professor of Sports Marketing and Associate Professor of Marketing at Clemson University, South Carolina, in the Wilbur O. & Ann Powers College of Business. She is an author of Advertising & Integrated Brand Promotion (2022), editor of The Dark Side of Social Media: A Consumer Psychology Perspective (2018), editor of Online Consumer Behavior: Theory and Research in Social Media, Advertising and E-tail (2012), and co-editor of Consumer Behavior Knowledge for Effective Sports and Event Marketing (2011).

“The list of troubling consequences associated with social media misuse (and abuse) has expanded, and their severity has grown. In response, Angeline Scheinbaum has assembled this new, and all together darker, compilation of chapters that aims to identify, understand, illuminate, and address the negative effects of social media, particularly on consumer well-being and mental health. Given the expanding nature of problems that are exacerbated through social media presence and usage, the book’s focus on finding actionable solutions to these challenges is both valuable and timely.”-John Hulland, Professor, Department of Marketing, University of Georgia
