الملخص EN

This study aims to identify the level of mental wandering among university students and to know the differences in light of the variables of gender, specialization, the type of the study and its stage.

It also aims to identify learning style of university students and to know the differences in light of the variables of gender, specialization, the type of the study and its stage.

The sample of the study consists of (500) male and female students distributed on (8) faculties with (4) faculties for each of the scientific and humanistic studies.

In order to achieve the objectives of the study, the researcher prepared two scales (psychometrics), one for mental wandering and the other for learning styles according to Grasha-Riechmann model.

The psychometric properties of validity and reliability are realized.

Pearson correlation coefficient, t-test and one-way analysis of variance are used as statistical methods.

The results show that the university students have a high level of mental wandering indicating that there are no differences in the light of the variable of sex, type of study and stage.

The results also reveal that the approved learning method is the most common method for university students, then the cooperative method and then the participatory method.

According to the gender variable, there are no differences in the learning styles except for the competitive one in favour of males.

There are also no differences in specialization except of the participatory method and the type of the study in the cooperative method.

The results also present a correlation between mental wandering and learning methods.

The study terminates with a number of recommendations and suggestions.
