Emotional wisdom among University students

Abstract

         The current research aims to identify the emotional wisdom of university students. The researchers used the descriptive research method. University students determine the research community for the academic year (2021-2022). The research sample consisted of (400) male and female students, who were chosen by a random stratified method with a proportional distribution from six colleges (the College of Education for Human Sciences, the College of Islamic Sciences, the College of Basic Education, the College of Agriculture, and the College of Sciences, and the College of Physical Education and Sports Sciences) at the University of Diyala. To achieve the research objectives, the two researchers built a measure of emotional wisdom according to the theory of Dina Saxer (Dena Saxer, 2009).

       The emotional wisdom scale consists of (30) items. The tool's apparent validity, construct validity, and factor analysis were verified, the reliability was confirmed by retesting, and the reliability coefficient was (0.79). And the tool's stability coefficient was reached by the Alpha Cronbach method (0.81) and using statistical means (one-sample t-test, Pearson correlation coefficient, Z-test, Alpha-Cronbach coefficient, factor analysis, regression analysis, and analysis of variance).
