Abstract
The research aimed to identify the level of dependent personality and self-efficacy and the relationship between them among students of Al-Hamdaniya University and to reveal the differences according to the variable (specialization). The basic research sample consisted of (114) male and female students who were selected using a regular natural random method. The researcher also prepared the dependent personality scale and the self-efficacy scale. She adopted the scale (Youssef, 2016), and extracted the validity for them as well as the retest reliability, which was (0.80) for the dependent personality scale and (0.83) for the self-efficacy scale. The data were processed statistically using the statistical package SPSS. The researcher reached a set of results, including:
1. There are statistically significant differences in the arithmetic mean in the dependent personality scale among students at Al-Hamdaniya University.
2. There are statistically significant differences in favor of the hypothetical mean in the self-efficacy scale among students at Al-Hamdaniya University.
3. There are no statistically significant differences in the dependent personality scale according to the scientific and humanities specialization variables among students at Al-Hamdaniya University.
4. There are no statistically significant differences in the self-efficacy scale according to the scientific and humanities specialization variables among students at Al-Hamdaniya University.
5. The relationship between dependent personality and self-efficacy is a positive, direct correlation among students at Al-Hamdaniya University.
Based on the research results, the researcher developed a set of conclusions, recommendations, and proposals
