Abstract

Digitalisation and the Internet are transforming all facets of lives including our psychological and mental wellbeing. A greater part of this transformation is in the configuration of space and spacing from banking and shopping, health, education, finance, communication, to groupings, chatting and dating. From a psychological and mental health perspective, aspect of cyberspace including intrapersonal and interpersonal communication in turn significantly affect our behaviour, attitude, emotions and decisions. Moreover, for people in the more traditional-cum-contemporary societies, cyberspace has created new spaces in the psychological and physical space that enables a ‘new’ virtual social environment in which people can create, and re-create their space, meet, negotiate, collaborate and exchange cultural ideas, goals and information. Cyberspace is now a phenomenon which has radically transformed our world and is pivotal to psychological and mental wellbeing fostering international standards, collaboration and cooperation, thus, reducing barriers of cultural and geographical space including in indigenous cultures. This paper explores the psychological and mental health aspects of cyberspace in terms of the social, behaviour, psychological and mental wellbeing, Cyberspace collates a state-of-the-art knowledge into the social arena while the Psychology of the Internet makes anecdotes in the ‘old’ and ‘new’ world order. Subsequently, cyberspace, together with the advancement in science and technology, medicine and other facets develop and advances emerging conceptualization of space.
