الملخص EN

The aim of the research is to identify the impact of an educational program in reducing mental selfishness among preparatory stage students, for the purpose of verifying the goal of the research, the researcher formulated three null hypotheses.

The research sample includes (40) male and female students from the fifth preparatory grade students of the Biology Branch.

The researcher distributed the sample equally among four groups; two experimental groups (males/females) and two control groups (males/females).

The experimental design of pre- and post-test was chosen.

After ensuring the equivalence between the two groups in the variables (chronological age, general IQ, academic achievement of the parents, pre-test score of the Mental Egoism Scale).

To achieve the goal of the research, the researcher construct a mental selfishness scale and after verifying the psychometric properties of the scale by presenting it to a group of experts and jurors and extracting reliability by using the test-re-test method, the reliability coefficient reached (0.83) and by using the Alpha Cronbach method, the reliability coefficient reached (0.86).

The researcher also prepared the educational program which consists of (10) lectures after verifying the apparent validity of the program by presenting it to a group of experts and jurors.

The data were treated statistically by using a number of statistical means; such as Pearson's correlation coefficient, one-sample, two-sample, independent t-test and chi-square.

The results indicated a low level of mental selfishness in the experimental group in the post test after implementing the educational program among the students.

The results also showed a decrease in the level of mental selfishness in the experimental group in the post test after implementing the educational program to the students compared to the control group, whose computed mean score was greater than the computed mean score of the control group.

The results indicated that there was no statistically significant differences between males and females in the experimental group after implementing the educational program, and in light of those results, the researcher set number of recommendations and suggestions.
