اتجاهات الفروق بين الجنسين في التوجه الإيجابي نحو الحياة : دراسة عاملية

Abstract EN

The study aimed at revealing the significant differences between the two genders in terms of the positive life orientation, and identifying the differences between the two genders on the items of the modified Life Orientation Test (LOT).

In addition, the study sought to demonstrate that optimism and pessimism are traits that can be successfully measured by means of the modified LOT.

The study sample size is 111 males and 116 females.

The researcher used the modified LOT (Scheier and Carver, 1994) as a measure of optimism.

The researcher localized and legalized the test, after testing the psychometric properties of it and ensuring its suitability for field application.
