Psychological independence and its relationship to the full psychological presence of fourth-year female students at the College of Physical Education and Sports Sciences at the University of Baghdad

Abstract

Psychological independence is regarded as one of the most significant attributes that any society attempts to highlight in its members' personalities in order to qualify them for responsibility, because each human is born with wants and motivations for individuality and independence.The individual's attainment of independence or self-reliance is a critical factor in his development, and it varies with his stage of development.The need for self-reliance is satisfied by parents responding to their children’s attempts to become independent at work and encouraging them at a young age to rely on themselves by giving them complete freedom to act and respecting their desires and opinions to gradually assume responsibility, which results in giving the children self-confidence and a sense of competence and independence. ,Female students have an impact on their whole psychological presence, often known as psychological well-being. If the student has a high psychological presence, this will have a favorable effect on her conduct, such as positive thinking. The study's goal is to determine the psychological independence of fourth-year female students at the University of Baghdad's College of Physical Education and Sports Sciences, as well as their total psychological presence.And to determine the association between psychological independence and full psychological presence in fourth-year female students at the University of Baghdad's College of Physical Education and Sports Sciences. The two researchers employed the descriptive technique to the research sample of (77) female students in the fourth stage at the College of Physical Education and Sports Sciences at the University of Baghdad for the academic year 2023-2024.Two scales were used: one to assess psychological independence, and another to assess full psychological presence. The data was processed using the IBM SPSS Statistics Ver26 tool, and a series of results and recommendations were drawn.
