Abstract

Internet communications in the context of the digitalization of
society are becoming an important social phenomenon that significantly influences the formation of youth worldview. They transform traditional mechanisms of socialization, including the processes of transmitting values, norms, and behavioral
models. At the same time, excessive and uncritical use of internet resources may lead to the spread of misinformation, superficial thinking, and the development of dependence on the virtual environment. Social networks, online platforms, and
digital media act not only as means of communication but also as tools for constructing social reality. They expand educational opportunities, promote intercultural dialogue, and provide access to diverse sources of information. In this regard, this article presents a theoretical analysis of the influence of internet communications on the formation of youth worldview, and also examines their positive and negative aspects within the framework of modern scientific approaches.
