Nejra van Zalk is a psychologist working in the Dyson School of Engineering at Imperial College, London. Vicki and Geraldine talk to her about the contribution psychologists can make to how we experience our online lives.

Talking points:

• How much are we making our own decisions when we're online?
• Why are we cavalier about giving away our data online, even when we care about privacy?
• Could online platforms and services actually improve young people’s mental health?
• Will we have to sacrifice some convenience online for our own good?
