| This study targeted Matrouh Governorate and was conducted on a simple random sample of 377 respondents. It is a simple random sample. The data were collected using a questionnaire with a personal interview designed for this purpose during the months of April and May 2024 AD. The researcher used numerical inventory tables and percentages, chi-square (Chi2), and simple correlation coefficient to analyze the data and present the results. The results showed a significant relationship at a significance level of 0.01 between the variables of gender, educational qualification, social status, and job, of the respondents and contemporary social problems. The calculated chi-square values were 198.263, 366.646, 663.268, and 980.345, respectively, which are greater than their tabular counterparts. The results also showed that there is a significant direct correlation between the variables of age, number of family members of the respondents and contemporary social problems, as the simple correlation coefficient values calculated reached 246.517, respectively. The results also showed that there is a significant inverse correlation between the variables of monthly income, agricultural holdings of the respondents and contemporary social problems, as the simple correlation coefficient values calculated reached -0.233, -0.218 respectively. | ||||
