The role of social media in shaping the social identity of Jordanian youth

Abstract

Social media has emerged as a crucial instrument for forming Jordanian youths` social identities, having a direct influence on their beliefs, traditions, and actions. This is because various media are widely used and interact with one another in the daily lives of young people, which helps to change how they think about their cultural and national identities. The purpose of this study was to determine how social media affects Jordanian youth`s development of social identities. On the basis of the findings of earlier research, an analytical analysis was carried out. The findings showed that social media is more than just a tool for communication; it also effectively shapes and defines the identity of the younger generation on a cultural and social level. This necessitates the creation of regulations to encourage parents and pertinent institutions to utilize these media responsibly and with awareness.
