Abstract |
|
|
| The main objective of this research is to consider the impact of social networking sites on Jordanian women, taking into account many factors such as social status, income, education, and others. A questionnaire was designed with seventy-three criteria varying between five basic economic, political, scientific, cultural, and social domains. The results ranged from the use of social networking sites for shopping, communicating with friends, and raising the level of culture and awareness. On the other hand, communication sites negatively affect women, as some women believe that they waste time and money, and there were no significant differences according to any of the variables (the nature of the area residence, family income level, and academic level). Proceeding from this discrepancy between advantages and drawbacks, the researchers recommend supporting and developing benefits, paying attention to risks, and avoiding them.
