Describing The Lebanese Youth: A National And Psycho-Social Survey | Ifi Working Paper Series #3

Working Paper Series #3 | July 2010 Describing the Lebanese Youth:  A National and Psycho-Social SurveyCharles Harb The present research investigates socio-demographic, socio-cultural and social-psychological profiles of a representative sample of Lebanese youth. The study thus provides a first assessment of youth in Lebanon, with a clear hope to replicate this research in other parts of the Arab world. This report does not aim to provide a comprehensive model testing between levels of analyses, but rather focuses on a more descriptive profiling of such variables in a way that may be useful to policy-makers, businesspersons, and other social agents interested in this age group. In order to provide as wide a descriptive of the Lebanese youth as possible, we propose to investigate the following domains: socio-demographic, socio-cultural, and social-psychological profiles.
