This research aims to describe prevalence, perspective on cyberextremism and encounters of cyberextremism among college students. A sample of 1000 Tafila Technical University (TTU) students ) representing 12 Jordanian governates, found that 45.4% were males and 54.6% were females from 12 Jordanian governorates. Science colleges and arts and social colleges split the sample almost equally (49.6% vs. 50.4%), respectively. All students are using the internet, and most of them use it intensively (73%), compared to regular use (27%).
The study found that less than half of the sample described online extremism as hate speech, violence, cyberbullying, sexual pornography, indirect hate speech, assaults, and post-support extremism. Students perceived several procedures to encounter cyberextremism, including closing websites, fines, criminalizing content, holding websites responsible for compensation, establishing a minimum age for viewing extremist content, removing hardening material, and compensation. Males had a higher mean of cyberextremism than females. ANOVA analysis showed significant differences between external attribution and cyberextremism, internal attributions, and no significant differences between males and females.

The study examines attributional differences in assessing the level of knowledge awareness about Jordanian Cybercrimes Law (JCL) among college students. The study sample comprised 500 Jordanian students representing four Jordanian universities (TTU, MU, JU, & BU). Of these, 43% were males, and 57% were females. Students (19%) reported being victims of cybercrimes, and 24% were perpetrators. Reliability as estimated by the scale's Cronbach's α was 0.66, and the validity (correlation between the scale and LSC scale) was 0.157 α = 0.00 (F = 187.161, α = 0.00). More than 25% of the sample read about the JCL and observed that the law has been politicized. Moreover, three-quarters of them heard about it. More than half of the sample witnessed illegal actions on the net that required punishment. Less than 10% of the sample dealt with the JCL or participated in an online action that required punishment. ANOVA analysis of the mean gender differences in cybercrime knowledge showed females were more knowledgeable about JCL than males (F = 4.402, α =.036). Furthermore, an ANOVA analysis of the mean external attribution differences (yes vs. no) in JCL knowledge (F = 4.402, α =.036) was performed. Finally, ANOVA analysis of the mean external attribution differences in the knowledge of JCL (F = 4.402, α =.036).
