Abstract

The study aims at identifying the extent of the use of misleading news by the young residents of the frontier districts and its relationship to their psychological health. The study is considered one of the descriptive studies that uses the media survey method, by applying it to an available sample of (255) respondents from the North and South Sinai Governorates, in addition to (10) experts in the field of media. Experts in the field of media used questionnaires and the Arab scale of psychological health and interview.
The study reached several results, including:
- The young residents of the frontier districts depend on social networking sites to obtain news at a rate of 85%, which is a high percentage, as these sites are their first source for obtaining news.
- The news obtained by the youth of the frontier districts through social networking sites varies between political, social, sports, religious and economic.
- 57.6% of the respondents believe that more than half of the news they are exposed to is misleading, which is an indication of the sample's lack of confidence in the news published on social media, despite that, they heavily used.
- There are no differences between males and females in relying on social networking sites as a source of news
- There is an inverse relationship with statistical significance between the use of misleading news by the young residents of the frontier districts and their degree of psychological health according to the Arab scale of psychological health.
- Young residents of the frontier districts who heavily use these misleading news are lower in their psychological health than medium and low users, according to the Arab scale of psychological health.
