Abstract EN

The current research aimed at developing a training program for the development of thinking based on wisdom and measuring its effect on improving coping strategies to solve stressful problems for Students of King Faisal University, Saudi Arabia.

The participants consisted of (81) students divided into two groups (38 for the experimental group, and 43 for the control group) – students of the first level at King Faisal university, Saudi Arabia.

The sample represented the low quarter according to their scores on the scale of coping strategies to solve the stressful problems.

The researcher prepared a program for the development of thinking based on wisdom and administered it for ten weeks.

A scale of coping strategies was applied at the beginning of the program and after its end.

The results of ANCOVAs revealed that there were statistically significant differences between the experimental and control groups on the dimensions of coping strategies (rational problem solving, avoidance style, negative problem orientation, impulsivity/carelessness style, and positive problem orientation), and the total score in favor of the experimental group.
