Abstract

The research aims at revealing the relationship between dimensions of psychological fitness and the feeling of satisfaction among young people, as well as showing the relationship between psychological fitness and the feeling of satisfaction among young people in the light of some variables such as gender (males, females) and educational tracks (human, scientific, health), and the interactions as mediating factors. It also attempts to reveal the significant differences in satisfaction and psychological fitness according to the interaction of the variables. The psychological fitness scale and the satisfaction scale were applied to a sample of young people consisting of (248) young men, of whom (144) were males and (104) were female university graduates. The results showed a relationship between the feeling of satisfaction and psychological fitness among young people, a function at the level (0.01). There is a relationship between satisfaction, psychological fitness and gender (M, F) after controlling it at a statistically significant level (0.01). And also exists a statistically significant relationship at the level (0.01) between satisfaction, psychological fitness and the educational track (H, S, H) after controlling it, which is a strong and positive correlation. The structural relationships of satisfaction and psychological fitness among young people reflected a correlational relationship, not a predictive causal relationship. The results also showed significant differences for the gender variable (M, F) in feeling satisfied in favor of females. There were no significant differences for the gender variable (M, F) in psychological fitness, and no significant differences in favor of the educational track variable (human, scientific, health).
