do you believe that technology has had a positive effect on your social interactions and relationships?

Explanation:

To determine which text uses "effect" as "a change that results from a cause", we analyze each option:

• In the first text, "shadow effect" refers to a visual result of smudging charcoal, but it's more about a visual style.
• In the second text, "positive effect" on social interactions means a change (positive) resulting from technology (the cause). This matches the definition of "effect" as a change from a cause.
