Present research is devoted to analys the roll of internet use in occurance of negative habits among internet users. Taking advantage of some cultural theoris of Iranian and non-Iranian theorists, several hypotheses were made and then, theoretical relations stablished among the variables. The statistical population of the research included all of internet users who visit coffee-nets in Kashan in May 2017, out of which 319 youngsters were selected as the research sample. It should be mentioned that research sample primarily was determined by Cochran calculation formula, and then, respondents were selected through accidential and proportional classified sampling method. Findings showed that the rate of users,s negative habits in Kashan is relatively on the edge of the middle level- not so high and not so low. Independent variables such as the rate of use, the kind of use, and the invironement showed significant relation with the rate of negative habits occurances among users. In this regard, usage rate showed a reverse relation with the rate of negative habits, i.e. the more using internet somehow leads to decrease of some negative habits rate such as non-responsibility, law violation, and lasyness.

The present study aims to investigate the possibility of creation of trust culture in cyber space regarding its structural properties. We used the theory of social trust by Piotr Sztompka and Handerson as the theoreticalframework of the study. The study was conducted in the city of Islamshahr in December 2012. The statistical population included all the people who went to an internet café in the cityfrom whom 383 people were chosen as the sample. The results indicate that trust culture has been formed in the cyber space, however at a lower average level compared to the physical world. The results also show a direct relation between the structure of cyber space and the formed trust culture. The structure of cyber space showed a stronger relation with the mental dimension of trust culture rather than its objective dimension. Different cyber space environments showed different levels of trust culture. Facebook showed the strongest trust culture and emails andgame environments came in second and third level.
