Abstract

   Thecurrent research is aimed to know the nature of the relationship between academic Entitlement, both from the Locus of control and the level of Aspiration among the students of Al-Azhar University, as well as to identify the differences in (academic Entitlement - Locus of control - level of Aspiration) according to the variables of gender (males - females) and academic specialization (theoretical - practical)The research sample consisted of (728) male and female students of Al-Azhar University, their ages ranged between (18 -21) years, with an average age of (19, 64) and a standard deviation of (1, 12). Among the objectives of the research, the researcher built scales (academic Entitlement - locus of control - level of Aspiration) and the validity and reliability of these scales were verified. (0, 01), with the exception of the total degree of academic Entitlement with the internal locus of control, there was no relationship between them, and there was a positive, statistically significant correlation between academic Entitlement and level of Aspiration of the research sample at two significant levels (0, 05, 0,01) with the exception of the behavioral dimension entitlement suppression After adopting future goals, there is no relationship between them, there are statistically significant differences at the level of significance (0,01) in the total score of the academic Entitlement scale in favor of females and the practical study specialization, and that academic Entitlement can be predicted through locus of control and level of Aspiration.
