The stability and the reliability of the scale are achieved.

The correlative factor for the scale items with the total degree for the scale and the total degree for each field are achieved.

The stability of scale is accounted by means of retesting amounted (0.85) and alpha-cronbach method amounted (0.88).

Then, the scale is applied to random sample of students University of Samaraa on (first and fourth stages) reached (400) students.

The statements are treated statistically.
