The relative contribution of mindfulness, emotional intelligence and Locus of control in predicting future orientation of high school students

Abstract:
The aim of the research is to reveal the relationship between the future orientation and each of mindfulness, emotional intelligence and Locus of control among secondary school students, and the possibility of predicting future orientation as a dependent variable through the independent variables of mindfulness, emotional intelligence, and locus  of control, the study sample consisted of (314) A male and female student of the first grade of secondary school, with an average age of (15.91) years, and a standard deviation of (0.69) years, and the study tools included: scale of orientation towards the future (the researcher's preparation), of mindfulness scale prepared by: (researcher), scale of intelligence The emotional preparation: (Othman, Rizk 2001), measure locus of control, authored (Suàrez-Alvarez, et al., 2016), translated by: the researcher, and the research was based on the descriptive method by using the correlation coefficients, and the multiple regression coefficient, the following results were obtained:                                
The existence of positive correlational relationships that are statistically significant between the dimensions of future orientation and the dimensions of each of: of mindfulness, emotional intelligence, and internal locus of control, while the correlational relationship was negative between dimensions of future orientation and external locus of control, and the results indicated that the dimensions of future orientation (Future aspirations - future planning - free will) can be predicted through the independent variables of the research, even if the relative arrangement of them in the predictive equation varies according to each dimension of the orientation towards the future.
