To achieve these aims, a sample of 400 students from the students of “The General Directorate of Education in Al-Qadisiyah Province” for the academic year 2019-2020 has been chosen in the random way which has a proportional style. Then, the scale of emotional begging has been built basing on the defintion of the researcher, similar studies and theoretical literature to be formed from 28 items. Afterwards, the scale of ego-depletion based on the definition and theory of Hacker and et al has been built to be formed from 30 items.
After eliciting the psychometric properties of validity and reliability of the research sample, the two scales have been applied to it. It turns out that there is emotion begging in preparatory stage students juxtaposed by ego-depletion in those students. It also turns out that there is a proportionality between the parameters. According to these findings, the reseach comes up with recommendations and suggestions.
