| Abstract | ||
| This study explores the psychological well-being of members of the Palestinian National Security forces in Qalqilya Governorate. The study adopted a descriptive methodology suitable for the research goals and nature, including a sample of 150 members of the Palestinian National Security forces selected through a convenience sample. Data were collected using a psychological well-being scale, which consists of 36 items divided across six dimensions.The results indicated that all dimensions of psychological well-being (autonomy, environmental mastery, personal growth, positive relations with others, purpose in life, and self-acceptance) recorded moderate levels of psychological well-being among the participants. Notably, there were no significant differences in psychological well-being among sex and age groups, except for the dimension of positive relations with others, where females reported higher well-being. Education levels showed significant differences only in overall psychological well-being, favoring those with a bachelor's degree. The results confirm the relatively stable psychological conditions across different demographic segments within the National Security forces, suggesting that institutional support and personal well-being strategies may effectively address the psychological needs of the workforce. However, variations in positive relational well-being by gender and educational disparity in overall well-being highlight areas for enhancing potential policies. | ||
