Abstract

Wisdom represents one of the core concepts in the science of positive psychology for its positive impact on one’s self and others. The present abstract aims at revealing the differences of wisdom among the preparatory stage teachers according to some demographic variables (gender – educational level – age group – years of experience) on a sample consisting of 41 teachers (25 Males and 16 Females) of various educational levels and age groups by using the wisdom scale for teachers as prepared by the researcher. This study concluded significant differences of the average scores among male and female teachers in terms of the wisdom overall score, and its meditative and sentimental dimensions in favor of males, and that there was no differences among both educational groups (university qualification, post-graduate studies) in the wisdom overall score however, some differences were depicted in the cognitive dimension, as well as other differences found among age groups in wisdom in favor of the older ages hence, significant differences were noticed in the wisdom scale average scores among the sample individuals owing to the years of experience variable in favor of the more experienced ones.
