Intellectual security and its relationship to digital citizenship and psychological stability among a sample of researchers at Al-Azhar University in light of some demographic variables

      The aim of the current research is to identify the level of intellectual security among researchers. It also aims to study the relationship between intellectual security, digital citizenship, and psychological stability among researchers, and to verify the possibility of predicting intellectual security among researchers through both (digital citizenship and psychological stability) and to reveal the differences in intellectual security according to gender (males - females), specialization (practical colleges - theoretical colleges), and research stage (master's - doctorate - promotion research). (380) researchers participated in the research for the academic year (2023/2024 AD), and the research tools consisted of the intellectual security scale, the digital citizenship scale, and the psychological stability scale (prepared by the researchers). The results showed a statistically significant high level of intellectual security among researchers at Al-Azhar University. The results also showed a statistically significant relationship between (intellectual security - digital citizenship - psychological stability) and the possibility of predicting intellectual security through some dimensions of digital citizenship and psychological stability. The results also showed statistically significant differences in intellectual security between the average scores of male and female researchers at Al-Azhar University in favor of males, and the presence of statistically significant differences in intellectual security between the average scores of researchers at Al-Azhar University from theoretical and practical colleges in favor of researchers from theoretical colleges and the absence of statistically significant differences between master's and doctoral researchers in intellectual security, and the presence of statistically significant differences between master's researchers and researchers for promotion in intellectual security in favor of researchers for promotion, and the presence of statistically significant differences between doctoral researchers and researchers For promotion in intellectual security for the benefit of researchers for promotion. The research results were discussed, and some recommendations and proposed research were presented.
