Political Culture and its Impact on University Student Behavior
Abstract
This research aims to study the pivotal role of political culture and its impact on social behavior within the university campus. This culture is shaped through socialization, the individual's surrounding environment, and the media. For university students, political culture is a crucial factor in shaping their awareness and behavior. Therefore, it is essential to integrate these elements and understand the relationship between them. The researcher employed several methodologies, including the descriptive approach. In preparing the theoretical aspect of the research, the analytical method was used to analyze and interpret the statistical results. The deductive method was also used to draw conclusions based on the statistical indicators. A sample of 136 students from the College of Arts and the College of Islamic Sciences at the University of Babylon was selected. A questionnaire consisting of 29 questions was prepared, and the researcher used the SPSS program To analyze the questionnaire data, several statistical indicators were used, including descriptive statistics, the arithmetic mean, standard deviation, correlation coefficient, and regression. The study revealed a correlation and influence of the independent variable, political culture, on the dependent variable, university students. The study recommended paying close attention to university student behavior, especially given the current political circumstances in Iraq, and urged senior faculty members to conduct workshops and awareness seminars on these two dimensions
