The required Helplessness and its relationship with binary thinking of Iraqi women

Abstract

The research investigates Iraq women, to know Helplessness and it relationship to binary thinking of Iraqi women, The research aims at the following:-

The research aimed at a community of Iraqi women to identify learned helplessness and binary thinking and the relationship between them, and the research set five goals, and after defining the theoretical framework and selecting the search terms, several steps are taken to achieve those goals of the learned helplessness, which consisted of (20) items, then the two scales are subjected to statistical analysis. To determine its validity for measurement, the items are distinguished using (T-test) for two independent samples, and the validity of the items is extracted using Pearson's correlation. The stability of the two scales reach (0.87) for the measure of learned helplessness, and (0.83) for the scale of binary thinking, followed by extracting the results of the research according to the five goals, and it appears that the research sample does not have a feeling of learned helplessness, where the calculated T value for a sample and a community reaches (5 4, 7), and in favor of the hypothetical average, as well as for binary thinking, as the t-value reaches (24,029) and in favor of the sample, and it appeares that there are no differences in the learned helplessness according to the differences in ages, occupation, and age. Academic outcome, as well as for binary thinking according to differences in ages, occupation, and academic achievement, and there is also a correlation between learned helplessness and binary thinking, where the correlation value reaches (399) and when testing the significance using the t-test it appears that the calculated T value is higher than the tabular value, that is, there is a significant and positive correlation between learned helplessness and binary thinking. Based on these findings the researcher has reached some recommendations and suggestion connected to these findings
