Abstract

The current research aimed to identify: 1.The psychosocial climate among middle school students. 2.Differences in the psychosocial climate among middle school students according to the variables (gender, specialization). To achieve the objectives of the research, the researchers relied on the following: 1. Using the descriptive correlative approach to reveal the psychosocial climate among middle school students. 2. Psychosocial climate scale based on the theory of (koys & decottis). The scale consisted of (29) items in its final form after completing the conditions of honesty, stability, discriminatory strength and internal consistency. To complete that, the researchers applied the scale to a sample of (400) male and female students in the center’s schools affiliated to the General Directorate of Al-Qadisiyah Education, and it was selected by stratified random method according to the proportional method. After data collection and processing statistically using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS), the following results were reached: 1. Preparatory students are characterized by a psychosocial climate, which is statistically significant. 2. There are statistically significant differences in the psychosocial climate according to the gender variable, where the males are characterized by the psychosocial climate more than the females. As for the specialization variable, the difference between students with scientific and literary specialization is not statistically significant. To complement the findings of the research, the researchers made several recommendations, including: 1. The necessity of helping students to form a psychosocial climate by creating an open climate to solve problems by encouraging students to express the problems they face and suggesting plans to solve them by the family and the school and developing the communication relationship between the student and the school and between the student and his family. 2. Enriching students' information in psychology and other sciences with regard to the psychosocial climate, as it is possible to refer to other complementary studies on its basis. The researchers made several suggestions, including: 1. Conducting scientific studies dealing with the psychosocial climate with achievement, self-esteem and control center. 2. Helping students to overcome the psychological conflicts they face in school and with the teaching staff and subjects. Keywords: psychosocial climate, middle school students.
