Abstract

The aim of the current research is to identify identity disorder and its relationship to cognitive failure among preparatory school students. The research sample included 400 male and female students from the preparatory stage in the preparatory and secondary schools of the Salah al-Din Education Directorate, Tikrit Education Department. The researcher prepared two instruments: a scale for identity disorder, which in its final form included 32 items with three alternatives, and a scale for cognitive failure, which in its final form included 25 items with three alternatives. After confirming the validity of the two instruments, the discrimination of their items, and their reliability, the research results showed that the level of preparatory school students in the identity disorder scale is low or weak, and that the level of preparatory school students in the cognitive failure scale is low or weak, and that there is a positive correlation between identity disorder and cognitive failure. In light of these results, the researcher put forward a set of conclusions, recommendations, and suggestions.
