Abstract

The aim of this study is to investigate the correlation between psychological stress and locus of control among students at A University, while taking various factors into account. To achieve this objective, two scales were utilized: the psychological stress scale, previously used in Derany’s (2003) research, and the Locus of Control scale, developed by Rotter and translated to Arabic and coded by Barhoom (1999). The study sample included 353 randomly selected students, and the data was analyzed using the distributive method of analysis. The findings indicated that the level of psychological stress among the students was moderate, with an average of 2.34. The mental area had the highest stress level, with a mean of 2.70, followed by the psychological area, with a mean of 2.32 and the physiological area, with a mean of 1.99. The majority of students exhibited an internal locus of control (59 percent), and there was a statistically significant difference between psychological stress and locus of control.

大学生心理压力与心理控制源的关系
本研究的目的是在考虑各种因素的情况下,探讨A大学学生心理压力与控制源之间的相关性。为了实现这一目标,使用了两个量表:心理压力量表,先前在Derany(2003)的研究中使用,以及由Rotter开发并翻译成阿拉伯语并由Barhoom(1999)编码的控制源量表。研究样本为随机抽取的353名学生,采用分布分析法对数据进行分析。结果表明,大学生的心理压力水平处于中等水平,平均为2.34。精神区压力水平最高,平均为2.70,其次是心理区,平均为2.32,生理区平均为1.99。大多数学生表现出内在控制点(59%),心理压力和控制点之间有统计学上的显著差异。
