Abstract

The current study aimed to identify psychological immunity in the relationship to infection with the corona virus among students of the College of Education at the university and to determine whether there are differences in psychological immunity, due to the gender variables (males-females), and infection with the corona virus (infected-not infected). The study aimed to identify to which extent the infection with the corona virus can be predicted through psychological immunity. The study sample consisted of 120 students of the Faculty of Education, University of Alexandria, 60 males and 60 females. The study used the psychological immunity scale and the response scale to infection with the corona virus prepared by the researcher. The results showed a negative correlation between psychological immunity and its dimensions and between the response to infection with the corona virus and its dimensions.
