Abstract EN

The present study aimed to identify the effectiveness of a training program based on the theory of inventive problem-solving "TRIZ" in the development of cognitive flexibility and academic self-concept among graduate students at the Faculty of Specific Education in Minya.

To this aim, the quasi-experimental research design was adopted due to its suitability for the nature and aims of the current study.

The main study sample consisted of (45) male and female students enrolled in the first-year of the special diploma at the Faculty of Specific Education.

The instruments included a scale of cognitive flexibility (prepared by Al-Dardir, et al.

, 2018), and a scale of academic self-concept (Prepared by Tan, 2007, and translated into Arabic & validated by the researcher), in addition to the training program based on the theory of inventive problem-solving (researcher-made).

The psychometric conditions of the study instruments were verified, and the data were statistically analyzed using the t- test.

The findings revealed that there are statistically significant differences at level (0.01) between the mean scores of the study participants on the pre- and post-measurement of cognitive flexibility scale in favor of the post measurement.

In addition, there are statistically significant differences at level (0.01) between the mean scores of the study participants on the pre- and post-measurement of academic self-concept scale in favor of the post-measurement.

These findings confirm the effectiveness of the training program in developing the cognitive flexibility and academic self-concept among the study participants.
