The Study of the Communicative Features of Virtual Communication as a Factor in the Formation of the Personal Identity of Student Youth in Late Adolescence
Abstract
This study investigated the communicative features of virtual communication as a factor in the formation of the personal identity of student youth in late adolescence. The study was conducted with 326 students of a higher educational institution in the Republic of Uzbekistan. The results of the study showed that the majority of students have an average level of communicative features of virtual communication. However, a significant number of students also have problematic levels of emotional intelligence, communicative tolerance, communicative control, and communicative motivation. In addition, the study found that a high level of Internet addiction is present in 9.51% of the students. This suggests that virtual communication can have a negative impact on the development of personal identity in student youth. The results of this study highlight the need for further research into the communicative features of virtual communication and their impact on personal identity.
