Abstract

The aim of the research was to reveal the relative contribution of digital intelligence and moral identity to mental wandering among female students of Al-Jouf University. To achieve the research objectives, the scales of Abdul-Ati Digital Intelligence, Aquino, & Reed Moral Identity and the Alpheel Mental Wandering Scales were used. Their psychometric properties were verified, and the descriptive correlational approach was used. A sample of (450) female students was chosen using the quota sampling method according to the student’s college. The results showed that there is a positive correlation between digital intelligence and moral identity with mental wandering inside the lecture, and a negative relationship with mental wandering outside the lecture, and there is a positive contribution of digital intelligence amounting to (16.20) and moral identity amounting to (4.93) with mental wandering inside the lecture, and there is a negative contribution of digital intelligence with mental wandering amounting to (14.92) outside the lecture. The results showed that the arithmetic mean of digital intelligence among female students in humanities colleges is higher than the arithmetic mean among female students in scientific and health colleges, as shown by the arithmetic mean of moral identity among female students in scientific colleges, which is higher than the arithmetic mean among female students in humanities and health colleges. The results also indicate that there are differences in mental wandering inside the lecture between the scientific and health colleges, and the differences were higher in scientific colleges.
