Abstract

The study explores the manifestations of cultural alienation from the perspective of 100 Facebook-user among M'sila University students. Accordingly, a scale with 17 items covering eight (8) aspects of cultural alienation was developed. The study disclosed that most students use Facebook, often have multiple accounts with pseudonyms, interact in non-realistic groups, and encounter frustration and psychological anxiety because of long non-interaction. Additionally, national language, social values, religion, ethics, traditions, and ways of thinking were the most affected cultural aspects.
