Abstract

The aim of the current research is to identify the relationship between psychological immunity and self-harm disorder among female university students, and to reveal the amount of difference in the degree of both psychological immunity and self-harm disorder depending on the specialization (scientific and literary) and academic year (second and fourth) for female university students. The correlative descriptive approach was used. In addition, the research sample consisted of (400) female university students, whose ages ranged between (20) and (22) years. To achieve the objectives of the research, two scales, prepared by the researcher, were used: the psychological immunity scale, and the self-harm disorder scale. The results of the research included the following. There is a negative correlation between the total score and the dimensions of psychological immunity, and also the total score and the dimensions of self-harm disorder among female university students. Furthermore, there is no difference in the degree of psychological immunity among female university students depending on the academic year (second - fourth), and specialization (scientific - literary). On the other hand, there is a difference in the degree of self-harm disorder among female university students according to the academic year (second - fourth), and specialization (scientific - literary) in the direction of the second year and literary specialization.
