Adolescents today live in a cultural world whose boundaries are more blurred than ever before due to their constant presence on social media. The media and technological means of communication have increasingly provided indirect exposure to other cultures. And this situation puts the adolescent in a situation where he has to face challenges over his identity and definition. The identity formed in each person has a specific type and style, which is called identity styles. Identity styles are the scale and degree of distinction that can be made between individuals. In this regard, Brzezinski (1992) considers identity styles to include information, normative, confusing, and commitment.In this regard, the present study seeks to investigate the relationship between attitudes toward social media and identity styles in adolescents aged 12 to 18 years using online survey method and a statistical sample of 1065 people. It was 0.82.The results indicate that there is a significant relationship between confused identity and commitment and attitude to social media and the hypothesis of a relationship between informational and normative identity style with attitude to social media has been rejected

The Iraqi Kurdish Independence Referendum, despite widespread opposition to the Barzani party's insistence, was held on, on December 25, 2017. And news related to the Kurdish referendum on the Iraqi Kurdistan for a long time has become the top news of a regional, transnational, and international media. In this research, we are going to review the news in the four news sites of Al Jazeera, IRNA, REDAWO and BBC, by reviewing the referendum in the days following its launch. The results of the research indicate that each of the news sites has their own specific idea of referendum. IRNA has paid attention to the referendum by mentioning the reflective news and it is mainly against the referendum. Al-Jazeera has implicitly supported the referendum with its analytical reports, but warns about its dangers, The BBC has shown its support for the Kurdish nation by applying its bilateral policy and has expressed criticism in it`s reflective news. Rodaw as Kurdish-language site supported the referendum and created a positive semantic framework of it.
