Abstract

This is a study submitted originally to the Information Dept. Committee in Humanities and Arts College, King Abdul Aziz University, in Partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Masters in the Information Management Program. The goal of this study is to explore the Saudi household use of ICT 'Information and Communication Technology'; one the Saudi household clearly depends on nowadays. Most Saudi households have access to ICTs like mobiles and Internet connections. It is important to analyze to what extent are they used, the goals of their use, and its impact on the households. This paper focuses on five questions related to the ICTs use, awareness and effects as well as investigating the correlation between some households' characteristics and the raised issues. The sample was an accidental sample, and the study questionnaire was built and judged according to the study questions and purposes.
