Abstract

The results of this study indicate that the connection between Bedouin and Jewish youth
in social networking is much more helpful to the Bedouin youth to know about Jewish
culture and the Jewish world. This interaction contributes to improving the Bedouin
youth’s knowledge of the Hebrew language as well as the level of their general
knowledge, self-esteem and understanding of the culture and society.
The emotional advantage is that there is much empathy for their contribution towards
Jewish teenagers; they feel pleasure and other emotional experiences during their
interaction with teens.
The practical implication of this research shows that it is important to recognize and
reduce conflict and moderate the relationship between the two groups of youth. For
example, the very existence of interaction on the internet gives an opportunity for
Bedouin teenagers to meet Jews, while overcoming the stigmas, disgust, hatred and
geographical remoteness and to develop a new hope among teenagers and the ratio of
recession against Jewish society in general.
The current study involves online social networks. Therefore, it opens a window for
further studies in social aspects of online social networking in general and social ties
between Jewish and Arab teens in social networks on the Internet. Another study was
based on a sample, along with the use of other methods such as qualitative content
analysis, discourse analysis, observation and speaking and in-depth interviews that
contribute to the professional study and an in-depth study on representation of their youth
groups and adolescents especially Bedouins in online social networks. On the way they
brought attitudes of Bedouin teenagers about social networks, emotions and their
interactions.
