Interaction anxiety and its relationship to realistic optimism among students of Omar Al-Mukhtar University

Abstract

The study aimed to identify the level of interaction anxiety and its relationship to realistic optimism among students of Omar Al-Mukhtar University, as the number of the study population reached (11809) students from ten colleges and the scale was applied to a sample of (200), and the number of males reached (71) the number of females (41) Where the sample was randomly selected from four colleges in the university (College of Arts - Education - Engineering - Sciences) and the interaction anxiety scale was applied numbers (teacher: 2014) and the realistic optimism scale from numbers (Rasheed: 2013), and the validity of the study tool was verified. Validity of consistency, as it became clear that the study tool has high validity coefficients. The validity coefficients for each paragraph of the scale and the total score of the interaction anxiety scale ranged between (0.240 - 0.804), and the correlation coefficients between the scale dimensions and the total score of the scale after giving an opinion (0.119) after stress When speaking (0.782) after shyness and confusion (0.901), the measure of reliability was calculated as a whole by the Cronbach alpha coefficient and reached (0.84), after expressing an opinion (0.90), after tension when speaking (0.93), after shyness and confusion (0.90), the validity of the optimism scale was also verified Realistic where th enjoys A scale with validity coefficients for each paragraph of the scale and the total score of the scale ranged between (0.266 - 0.722). The correlation coefficients between the total score of the scale and the scale dimensions reached the academic dimension (0.879) after the social dimension (0.793) and the personal dimension (0.877). The realistic optimism scale also has high stability coefficients. The reliability coefficients for the overall score of the scale were (0.92) the academic dimension (0.75) the social dimension (0.83) the personal dimension (0.74), and some statistical treatments were used using the SbSS statistical package, which are arithmetic averages, standard deviations, the T-Test, and analysis of variance. one way ANOVA, and the results of the study resulted in the following points: - That the sample members have a high level of interaction anxiety and realistic optimism. There is a statistically significant relationship between the measure of interaction anxiety and realistic optimism. - There are statistically significant differences between the sample members according to gender on the interaction anxiety scale. - There are no statistically significant differences between the sample members according to the gender on the realistic optimism scale. - There are statistically significant differences between the sample members according to the college on the dimension reaction anxiety scale. The second and third are between the College of Education and the College of Arts and Engineering, and the differences were of statistical significance for the degree of the scale in favor of the College of Science and Engineering and the College of Arts. - There are differences of statistical significance between the sample members according to the college on the realistic optimism scale on the second and third dimension in favor of the College of Education, Arts and Engineering.
