Abstract

This study aimed to determine the relationship between the use of social networking sites and intellectual security among students of social work. It also aimed to identify factors to support online intellectual security among social work students. We selected a purposive sample of (145) students (fourth year), the number of males (118), females (27).
The study concluded that there are no statistically significant differences between the mean scores of social work students (males and females) using social networking sites and their impact on the social dimension of intellectual security. However, there were statistically significant differences between the mean scores of social work students (males and females) using social networking sites and their impact on the religious, political and economic dimension of intellectual security. The study also indicated that there are no statistically significant differences between the mean scores of social work students (living in rural and urban areas) using social networking sites on the intellectual security scale.
