The basic sample of the study consisted of 400 adolescents in the first and second grades in the middle grade of Mubarak al-Kabeer and Hawla in the State of Kuwait, with 200 males and 200 females, both Kuwaiti and non-Kuwaiti. They ranged from 13 to 14 years of age and were applied to the executive job scale and the Alexithymia scale.The results of the study: negative D statistically correlated with both (response palms, transformation, emotional control, working memory, planning) and the female's ethnographically. It also shows that females perform better in some of the operational functions of 'response palms, emotional control, planning/organization' than males. The results also showed better performance for males in working memory than for females, but they (males) were more rheumatic than females and showed no difference in gender scores in the shift in response. The results also showed that emotional control as a component of executive functions was achieved by predicting Alexithymia, and there was an impact and predictive ability of both emotional control and working memory combined to perform Alexithymia. | ||||
