Abstract The social nature of human beings predicts that only relatively weak relationships can be maintained without face to face interaction. Digital revolution and the pervasive presence of technology enable us to communicate, entertain us, play and get information without interacting with other people. Several authors sustain that Internet use affects our emotions, mind, and behavior causing a deficit in our capacity to interact with other people (social cognition) and even causing disorders in mental health (Greenfield, 2015). In this paper, we review the state of the art arguing that exists a psycho-pathologization of social cognition in the digital culture and that Internet, videogames, social media, or virtual reality are not obstacles to social well-being.
