In this article, collective alienation means the reduction of density or rate of real relationship to possible relationship in social networks of family, kinship, friendship, colleague and neighborhood. The Fundamental hypothesis of this research indicates that virtual communication has a binary effect on collective alienation. This effect is reductive in the condition of long-term communication and feminine sexuality whereas it is increasing in the condition of short-term communication are masculine sexuality.The results of the hypothesis inquiry on the social networks of a sample of 160 residents of Mashad City, aged 16 years old and over indicates that:Firstly; collective alienation in social networks of Mashad City is high on the whole.Secondly; virtual communication accumulation is much more than that of face to face communication. Thirdly; there isn’t a relation between virtual communication accumulation and collective alienation in all networks. Finaly; in spite of the prediction, the increase of virtual communication within family and friendship networks, has been reductive to collective alienation.
