القدرة التنبؤية للهوية الأخلاقية بالسلوك الأخلاقي لدى طلبة جامعة اليرموك

Abstract EN

This study aimed to reveal levels of moral identity and moral behavior and to investigate the predictive ability for the moral identity for moral behavior at Yarmouk University students.

The sample of the study consisted of 1000 university students.

The sample responded to the Moral Identity Scale (Acquino & Reed, 2002), and Moral Behavior Scale developed by the researchers.

The results revealed that the moral identity was high while moral behavior was moderate.

There were statistically significant differences in moral identity level due to gender, in favor of females, while no statistically significant differences were found due to type of faculty (humanitarian, scientific).

The results of the study indicated that moral identity was a strong predictor of moral behavior among Yarmouk University students.
