-
The aim of this study was to analyze the degree of availability of cognitive curiosity requirements among outstanding students in schools in Wasit Governorate, Iraq. It also aimed to demonstrate the extent of availability of areas of fulfilled psychological presence among these students, and to analyze the impact of gender and academic level variables on student performance on the respective scales. This was achieved by adopting a social sampling method, selecting a measure of fulfilled psychological presence and a measure of cognitive curiosity from previous studies and applying them to a stratified sample of outstanding students at Wasit High School for the Distinguished and Al-Rabab High School for the Distinguished. The sample consisted of (180) male and female students. The study concluded that gender had an impact on students' scores on the fulfilled psychological presence scale, favoring females. There were no differences attributable to the academic level variable on the two scales. It also demonstrated a positive correlation between cognitive curiosity and fulfilled psychological presence.
