Explanation:

Ambient Awareness refers to being constantly aware of others' lives through social - media updates, creating a sense of connection without deep interaction. The Goldilocks Effect means social media interactions are 'just right' - not too close or too distant. For example, liking a friend's Instagram post is a form of ambient awareness, and messaging someone occasionally on social media can illustrate the Goldilocks Effect.

Answer:

Ambient Awareness is the constant low - level awareness of others' lives via social media. The Goldilocks Effect is the idea that social media interactions are at an ideal, not - too - close, not - too - distant level. Example: Liking a friend's Instagram post for ambient awareness; occasional social media messaging for the Goldilocks Effect.
