Ali Mahmud Shoeib — 2024-03-15

The current study aimed to explore the relationship between academic emotions (AE), emotional contagion (EC), and emotional memory (EM), as well as to examine the significance of differences in academic emotions, emotional contagion, and emotional memory based on academic specialization (scientific/literary). The study also tested a proposed model suggesting academic emotions as a mediating variable between emotional contagion and emotional memory in a sample of student teachers at the College of Education. The study sample consisted of 495 student teachers, including 45 male and 450 female students, with a mean age of (21.5 ± 1.06). The study utilized the Academic Emotions Scale for university students developed by Al-Durair, et al (2020), the Emotional Contagion Scale (Arabic adaptation of Doherty's scale, 1997), and the Emotional Memory Scale developed for this study. The results of the study indicated statistically significant relationships between academic emotions, emotional contagion, and emotional memory among the sample of student teachers at the College of Education. Furthermore, significant differences were found in specific dimensions of academic emotions (enjoyment, academic pride, and academic hopelessness) based on academic specialization. However, there were no significant differences in the total scores of academic emotions, emotional contagion, and emotional memory based on academic specialization in the sample of student teachers at the College of Education. Additionally, the proposed model was tested using regression analysis and path analysis, following Baron and Kenny 's (1986) approach and process macro spss by Hayes (2022) . The results supported the proposed model, suggesting that academic emotions serve as a partial mediating variable for the relationship between emotional contagion and emotional memory in the sample of student teachers at the College of Education.

Nohayier Abdelfattah Ali — 2024-03-15

The study aimed to estimate the relationship between environmental anxiety and sustainable environmental behavior among a sample of university students. The study was conducted following the climate changes that occurred during the summer of 2023, including some global climate phenomena (El Niño, heat dome) that led to environmental disasters such as fires in Europe, hurricanes in America, and dengue fever outbreaks. The study adopted a correlational method and the sample consisted of 200 students from the Faculty of Education in Ismailia, ranging in age from 18 to 43, from both undergraduate and graduate levels. Ecological anxiety scales and environmental identity scales were used to measure environmental behavior. The results showed a weak negative correlation between environmental identity and cognitive and emotional difficulties, while a weak positive correlation was found between behavioral correlation and environmental identity among university students. The study recommends the need to hold university seminars on the environment to raise awareness among students about environmental risks, green behavior, and reduce environmental anxiety resulting from lack of understanding and environmental awareness.

The results showed that the total degree of the practice of electronic management among the principals of public schools in Palestine was high, with an arithmetic mean of 4.17. The findings indicated no significant statistical differences at the significance level (α≥.05) in the averages of electronic management practices among public school principals from the teachers' perspective in Palestine attributable to variables (gender, educational qualification, directorate). The results showed that there were no statistically significant differences at the level of significance (α≥.05) between the means of practicing electronic management among public school principals from the perspective of teachers in Palestine, attributed to the variables (sex, educational qualification, directorate). However, it showed differences according to the variable of years of service in teaching. The differences favored those who had years of service in teaching less than (5) years.
