Extremism: A Psychological Reading

Prof.Dr. Haider Kareem Sukar Prof. Dr. Fatima bint Ibrahim Ruwais — 2025-06-18

The issue of extremism represents one of the main concerns in modern societies. It is a daily life issue deeply rooted in the structural framework of visions, ideals, and ideologies accepted by society. Extremist thought, like any cognitive construct, is a social phenomenon that both influences and is influenced by other phenomena. It is closely linked to historical, political, religious, social, economic, and other conditions that societies face. The challenges to intellectual security are numerous and varied, including internal and external factors, as well as shared influences between them. Intellectual invasion, ideological and psychological warfare, media influence, the information explosion, the rise of extremist groups, and economic, political, and social conditions are all real challenges to intellectual security in Islamic societies. Therefore, intellectual deviation is not only a legal and religious crime but also harms the creed of the Islamic nation. It serves as a means to spread heresies and discord among Muslims, distorting the true image of Islam, which is characterized by moderation and balance, far from extremism and excess. When examining extremism among youth, it is evident that it stems from numerous and diverse causes, including psychological, social, political, and economic factors. The cause of extremism may also be personal, related to the characteristics of the youth themselves, their psychological makeup, their social upbringing, family relationships, peer groups, and the social environment they live in, which may be marked by value contradictions or stark disparities between their reality and their aspirations. The lack of a clear future vision further exacerbates the issue. Extremism is a global phenomenon that encompasses the entire world and is as old as humanity itself. It has social, political, religious, and psychological dimensions, making it a complex phenomenon. Therefore, its diagnosis and treatment should not be confined to a single perspective, no matter how important it may seem.

Research Aims : The current research aims to identify:

1. The concept of extremism
2. The causes of extremism
3. The effects of extremism
4. The forms of extremism
5. The manifestations of extremism
6. The psychological components of extremism
7. Theoretical explanations of extremism
8. Youth and extremism
9. A psychological reading of extremism

The psychological reading of extremism reveals that youth are highly sensitive to the organic, psychological, and intellectual changes occurring within them, as well as the social and political changes in their reality. They are also affected by sweeping political transformations, rapid social and civilizational changes, and ideological shifts. This leads to confusion and crises among youth as they search for identity and meaning in their existence, often feeling alienated or responding in extreme ways. The prevailing collective climate plays a significant role in shaping identity. Additionally, youth in the university stage may either have discovered themselves, achieved their identity, and integrated into adult society, or they may remain plagued by feelings of failure, facing the crisis of this period and feeling lost, unsure of what they truly want or how they are perceived by others, resulting in an identity crisis.

In order to achieve this, the researchers adopted the digital competence scale prepared by Ferrari (2012) consisting of (29) paragraphs, and the cognitive wisdom scale prepared by Ardilt (2003) consisting of (14) paragraphs. To complete this, the two scales were applied to a sample consisting of (400) male and female students from Al-Qadisiyah University, which were selected using the stratified random method according to the proportional method. After collecting the data and processing it statistically using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS), the research results concluded that graduate students have digital competence and enjoy cognitive wisdom. There is also a positive correlation between digital competence and cognitive wisdom. Based on the results of the research, several recommendations and proposals were made.

Cognitive Sharing and Its Relationship to Positive Thinking among University Students

2025-06-18

The comprehensiveness of knowledge does not only apply to the phenomena you study, but also to the minds that receive it. The truth imposes itself on everyone as soon as it appears, and it can be transmitted to all people. Certainty does not mean that knowledge is fixed, but rather it means relying on convincing and conclusive evidence. However, it does not mean that it is above change. Since thinking is one of the main ways to direct human life, negatively or positively, what we think about with concentrated thought in our conscious mind is implanted and integrated into our experience. Whatever we believe, it will turn into truth when you give it your feelings. The stronger your belief becomes, the higher the emotion you add to it. The current research aimed to identify cognitive sharing and positive thinking among university students and what is the correlation between them. To verify this, the researchers adopted the cognitive sharing scale of (Mahdi 2021), which consisted of (17) paragraphs after the psychometric properties procedures according to the research methodology and adopted the positive thinking test of (Karim 2018) consisting of (40) paragraphs. After statistical procedures, the psychometric properties of the research sample (400) male and female students from the university who were randomly selected were calculated. After collecting and statistically processing the information, the researchers reached the following results: -

- University students enjoy cognitive sharing.

- University students enjoy a good level of positive thinking.

- There is a positive, direct, significant relationship between cognitive sharing and positive thinking.

Based on the results of the current research, some recommendations and future proposals were reached

However, family disintegration is a major cause of juvenile delinquency. It is the environment responsible for nurturing and caring for the child, fulfilling their material and psychological needs, and providing a suitable and balanced family atmosphere free from psychological disorders and behavioral problems that affect their personality.

Juvenile delinquency is a complex phenomenon that threatens the stability of society, pushing children and adolescents to reject the reality they live in, especially in their family environment. This phenomenon has greatly affected society, considering that a delinquent child is made, not born, and is a victim of several factors, including family problems that threaten family stability and cause the child to alienate from it, leading to deviation and delinquency.

Family disintegration creates an unstable and unsupportive environment for children, increasing the risk of their involvement in deviant behaviors. Children who lack proper care and guidance are more susceptible to negative influences in society.

Therefore, it is necessary to shed light on the factor of family disintegration and its impact on juvenile delinquency, along with other related factors.

Among the problems facing university lecturers are ethical challenges and how to make and adhere to decisions, in addition to the obstacles that limit the practice of volunteer activities. Therefore, the current research addresses two concepts that represent a contemporary challenge according to the requirements of the success of university lecturers, namely moral potency, which refers to the ability of the lecturer to make ethical decisions in difficult circumstances and challenges as dictated by principles and ethics. The researcher relied on the theory of (Hannah, et al. 2011) to understand and interpret this concept and interpret the results he reached. In addition, he addressed the motivation to volunteer, which is the engine that drives the lecturer to participate in volunteer work, which usually does not bring material benefits. In order to clarify the concept of volunteer motivation more precisely, the researcher relied on the model of (Clary & et al. 1998). The researcher chose the descriptive correlational approach to study the two variables and reveal the relationship between them and the extent to which they are affected by other factors (gender and specialization), relying on the scale of (Hannah, et al. 2011) to measure moral potency and the scale of (Clary & et al., 1998) to measure volunteer motivation. Both were translated into Arabic using a scientific translation method. The researcher found a correlation between moral potency and volunteer motivation among university lecturers, and no statistically significant differences based on gender (male/female) and specialization (scientific/humanitarian). The researcher then developed a set of recommendations and proposals.

Cognitive interference and its relationship to the false self among university students

M. M. HalaWaleedGhanem — 2025-06-18

The current research aims to know the cognitive interference and its relationship to the false self among university students, as well as to identify the significance of the difference in the relationship according to gender (males - females) in addition to the correlation between the two variables. In order to verify this, the researcher adopted the cognitive interference scale prepared by (Al-Shamri, 2015) as the scale consisted of 36 paragraphs in its final form, and adopted the false self scale prepared by (Muhammad, 2021) as the paragraphs reached 25 paragraphs in its final form. The researcher verified the psychometric properties of the two scales and applied them to 140 male and female students who were randomly selected at Al-Mustansiriya University (College of Education, Arts, Sciences) for the academic year (2024 - 2025). The research results showed the following:

1- The research sample of university students does not have cognitive interference.

2- It was found that there is no difference in cognitive interference according to the gender variable (males - females) among university students.

3- The research sample of university students does not have a false self.

4- There is no difference in the false self according to the gender variable (males - females) among university students.

5- The results of the statistical analysis showed that there is no correlation between cognitive interference and the false self among university students.
