Perceived Self-Efficacy and Its Relationship to Dexterous Thinking Among Third-Stage Female Students in the College of Physical Education and Sports Sciences - University of Basra

Abstract

The aim of the study is to identify the perceived self-efficacy, as well as to identify dexterous thinking among them and to identify the relationship of perceived self-efficacy with dexterous thinking. For the example, the researchers hypothesized the existence of a statistically significant correlation between the measure of perceived self-efficacy and the measure of dexterous thinking.

   The researchers used the descriptive approach, and the research sample was selected from the third-stage female students in the College of Physical Education and Sports Sciences / University of Basra for the academic year (2021-2022 AD), where the number of the research community was (76) students, while the research sample was randomly selected. (20) female students, i.e. (26.316%), and after completing the main experiment and conducting statistical treatments, the following conclusions were reached: There is a positive relationship between the perceived self-efficacy measure and skillful thinking measure. The research sample achieved a good level of dexterous thinking. The research sample was characterized by a great deal of perceived self-efficacy. The researchers recommend the need to enhance self-confidence and create a state of dialogue within the educational situation at the university in a manner commensurate with the spirit of the times and concepts.
