People’s Perceptions Of Divorced Women In The Age Of Digital Connectivity A Field Study Of A Sample Of Young Internet Users

Authors : Benzina Karima .

Abstract

This study aims to reveal young people’s attitudes towards divorced women by identifying the factors and causes that have contributed to reshaping traditional social representations and perceptions, from a disparaging view and stereotypical image of divorced women into greater awareness as a result of digital openness. To this end, the study focused on a sample of young people within the digital space. To achieve the study’s objectives, a descriptive approach and statistical methods were employed, with a questionnaire used to collect data. Statistical analysis was conducted using frequencies and percentages. The study’s findings revealed that the digital space has helped break down the stereotype of divorced women, leading young people’s perceptions to shift toward those who are understanding and supportive and away from those who have reshaped their views in a new digital form.
