Abstract

Numerous studies, most of them involving adolescents and adults, have evidenced a moderately positive relationship between self-efficacy and quality of life (QoL). There are, however, a limited number of studies that have addressed the mechanisms underlying this relation. Thus, the objective of the present study was to examine the relationship between one’s perceptions of the capabilities (self-efficacy) and perceptions of one’s life and environment (QoL) among the students enrolled at the Faculty of Educational Sciences at Zarqa University. To achieve the objective of the study a sample of 120 male and female students was selected from the Faculty of Educational Sciences at Zarqa University. All participants completed two surveys that measure self-efficacy and quality of life. The study revealed a statistically significant difference between students in the self-efficacy level on the basis of gender in favour of male students. On the other hand, there are no statistically significant differences between students in QoL level according to their gender. In addition, there is a statistically significant positive correlation between self-efficacy and quality of life levels among the students enrolled at the Faculty of Educational Sciences at Zarqa University.

الملخص

أثبتت العديد من الدراسات، التي شملت معظمها المراهقين والبالغين، وجود علاقة إيجابية معتدلة بين الكفاءة الذاتية ونوعية الحياة. ومع ذلك، هناك عدد محدود من الدراسات التي تناولت الآليات الكامنة وراء هذه العلاقة. وبالتالي، كان الهدف من هذه الدراسة هو دراسة العلاقة بين تصورات الفرد للقدرات (الكفاءة الذاتية) وجودة الحياة بين الطلاب المسجلين في كلية العلوم التربوية في جامعة الزرقاء. لتحقيق هدف الدراسة تم اختيار عينة من 120 طالباً وطالبة من كلية العلوم التربوية في جامعة الزرقاء. أتم جميع المشاركين دراستين استقصائيتين تقيسان الكفاءة الذاتية وجودة الحياة. كشفت الدراسة عن فروق ذات دلالة إحصائية بين الطلاب في مستوى الكفاءة الذاتية على أساس الجنس لصالح الطلاب الذكور. من ناحية أخرى، لم توجد فروق ذات دلالة إحصائية بين الطلاب في مستوى جودة الحياة حسب جنسهم. بالإضافة إلى ذلك، هناك علاقة إيجابية ذات دلالة إحصائية بين الكفاءة الذاتية ومستويات جودة الحياة بين الطلاب المسجلين في كلية العلوم التربوية في جامعة الزرقاء.
