Psychological weaning and its relationship to the (psychological-social) status of students in the Department of Special Education

The current research aims to identify the level of psychological weaning and the level of (psychological-social) status and the relationship between them among students in the Department of Special Education. The research sample consisted of (60) male and female students selected using a stratified random sampling method. To achieve these objectives, the researcher used two ready-made tools: the first is the Al-Taie scale (2013) to identify psychological weaning, which consists of (30) items in its final form with three alternatives (agree, neutral, disagree). The (Mutashar, 2020) scale for identifying the (psychological-social) status, consisting of (37) items in its final form with four alternatives (applies to me to a large extent, applies to me to a medium extent, applies to me to a small extent, does not apply to me). The researchers extracted the apparent validity of the two scales by presenting them to a group of experts in the field of educational and psychological sciences. Then, the researchers extracted the reliability by retesting, where the reliability coefficient for psychological weaning reached (0.90), while for the (psychological-social) status (0.92). The data were statistically processed using appropriate statistical methods and the Statistical Package for Humanities and Social Sciences (SPSS) program. The researchers reached the following results: Students of the Special Education Department have psychological weaning, but to a small extent. They also have a good level of (psychological-social) status. The results also showed that there is a positive and good correlation between the two variables. At the end of their research, the researchers reached a set of recommendations and proposals.
