Abstract

This study aims to investigate universities' role in promoting community responsibility, responsibility to others, citizenship and belonging, freedom and political participation, and pluralism and cultural openness among their students. The researchers prepared a questionnaire consisting of (59) paragraphs in its final version (negative and positive) distributed in dimensions of social responsibility (social responsibility - responsibility towards others - self-responsibility - identity - participation in activities - belonging and citizenship - pluralism and cultural openness - freedom and political participation). The reliability and validity of the instrument were calculated. The study was conducted on a random stratified sample of (275) students from Al-Balqa Applied University and (222) students from Mu'tah University (males and females) who are enrolling in the academic year 2016/2017. The results of the study showed that there was a significant increase in the sample responses from the students of Al-Balqa University and Mu'tah University students on the items of social responsibility domain, responsibility towards others domain, freedom and political participation domain, citizenship and belonging domain, and pluralism and cultural openness.
