Abstract
Today, new developments in the field of criminology studies have
caused the attention of social science and criminology researchers
to be directed to the other side of the criminal act, i.e. the victims of
crimes. Based on victim-centered approaches, the lifestyle of these
people, which includes the conditions governing the development of
crime and the occurrence of victimization, is examined and
investigated so that steps can be taken to prevent crime and reduce
its consequences. But apart from the real space of the society, today
there is also a virtual space at the disposal of colleagues, and life in
this space can be greatly affected by people's lifestyles; Also,
researchers call the virtual space a space represented by reality,
which, despite all its limitations, sets an example in the field of
lifestyle and is one of the most important tools in the promotion of
lifestyle. Lifestyle, as the most tangible level of life and culture, is
affected by the speed of social changes and the extent of competition
due to diverse spaces, it changes and is affected quickly, and it also
affects this space. The challenges facing these spaces and their
effects on people's lifestyles require deep and scientific studies, and
in this research, the researcher has taken a small step in this field.
The current research was of a library type and the results of the study
show that factors such as carelessness, type of daily activities,
lifestyle such as behavior and clothing, as well as violence in private
and public spheres, family disorder and weakness in socialization,
inefficiency or lack of laws protective and social, lack of training in
self-defense methods, cluttered urban space and virtual spaces,
moving to and from crime-prone and secret places, the existence of
social and economic disorders such as unemployment and poverty,
in addition to physiological and biological characteristics, In
addition, ignorance and ignorance of virtual spaces, lack of tangible
control, limitless freedom of virtual spaces and easy communication
with different people have been introduced as the most important
reasons for victimization.
