| Abstract |
This study aimed to reveal whether there is a Relationship between Time Perception and Cognitive Processing Speed among high and low Depressive Symptoms in College Students, and the possibility of predicting depressive symptoms from time perception and cognitive processing speed. A survey sample: consisted of 30 female university students; In order to calculate the standard efficiency of the tools, their ages ranged between (18 to 25 years), with a mean of (20.66) years and a standard deviation of (2.07) years. The final sample consisted of (50 female) university students, divided into (25 high depressive symptoms, 25 low depressive symptoms). they were divided into high and low depressive symptoms based on their scores on the Beck Depression Inventory. Tools: The Beck Depression Inventory, and the subtests (symbol searching, encoding, and deletion) of the Wechsler Scale for Estimating the Intelligence of Adolescents and Adults in order to calculate the degree of cognitive processing speed, and the Time Perception Calculation Program. The results of the study: The results showed that there were no significant differences between high and low depressive symptoms in female college students in both time perception and cognitive processing speed. They also did not show a correlation between time perception and cognitive processing speed among high and low depressive symptoms in female college students. |
