Abstract

The problem of the research lies in the difficulty of female students performing the skill of serving in volleyball. Researchers may attribute the reason for this to the presence of individual differences between female students, and the reasons for this may be the difference in the thinking styles of the learners and the differences in the characteristics and characteristics of each learner, and this in turn may cause a difference between the female students in fitness and mental motivation, and this in turn is reflected in Performing the skill under study. The research aimed to identify female learners with liberal and conservative thinking among the research sample, and to identify (mental fitness - mental motivation - performing the volleyball serve skill) among the research sample, and to compare between the two types of liberal and conservative thinking in (mental fitness and mental motivation) among the research sample. The researchers assumed a difference between female learners in the variables (liberal and conservative thinking styles - mental fitness - mental motivation - serving skill performance) in volleyball, and there are no differences with statistical evidence between the liberal and conservative thinking styles in fitness and mental motivation in the research sample, and there are no significant differences. Statistics between the two types of liberal and conservative thinking in the performance of the volleyball serving skill among the research sample. The descriptive approach was used using the method of correlations and comparisons on a sample of fourth-year female students at the College of Physical Education and Sports Sciences for Girls - University of Baghdad, who numbered (25) students out of (107) students. The research tools were (measures of liberal and conservative thinking styles - mental fitness - mental motivation - transmission). After that, the main experiment was conducted by implementing all the measures and testing on the sample of the main experiment. and this achieves one of the sustainable development goals of the United Nations in Iraq which is (Quality Education). In light of the results, conclusions were reached, the most important of which was that the number of female students with the conservative thinking style exceeded the number of female students is of a liberal style, and therefore the conservative thinking style is prevalent.
