Abstract

The study aimed to identify the role of youth centers in reducing violence and its relationship to national affiliation among young people from the perspective of workers in youth centers in the northern governorates of Jordan. Participants were chosen in a simple random manner. The results of the study showed that the role of youth centers in reducing violence among young people was significant. Furthermore, the level of national affiliation among youth was also found to be high. The results indicated a positive, moderate, statistically significant correlation at the significance level (α = 0.05) between the role of youth centers in reducing violence and the level of national affiliation among youth in these centers in northern Jordan. The study recommends that youth centers in this region continue to educate young people about the dangers of violence, emphasizing their importance in protecting young people and achieving security and stability for them.
