Authentic Pride and its Relationship to Self-determination in the Medical GroupAs submitted to

Summary: 
The current research aims to know the relationship between authentic pride and self-determination among medical group students. Authentic Pride: It is one of the emotions of a sense of self and expresses superiority and obtaining the reputation and high status granted on the basis of proven knowledge, organization, skills, and altruism and includes a wide range of achievements social, ethical, and academic
Self-Determination: It contributes effectively and positively to increasing the learner’s ability to achieve the best academic achievements, achieve his cognitive-mental growth and enhance it in a sound and balanced manner.
Therefore, the current research aims to identify:
Measuring the genuine pride among the medical group students.1- 
2- Identifying the significance of the difference in authentic pride according to the gender variable (males, females), according to the stage variable (second, fifth), according to the specialization variable (general medicine, dentistry, pharmacy).
3- Measuring self-determination (internal, external) among the medical group students.
4- Identifying the significance of the difference in self-determination (internal) according to the gender variable (males, females), according to the stage variable (second, fifth), according to the specialization variable (general medicine, dentistry, pharmacy).
5- Identifying the significance of the difference in self-determination (external) according to the gender variable (males, females), according to the stage variable (second, fifth), according to the specialization variable (general medicine, dentistry, pharmacy).
6- Recognizing the relationship between authentic pride and selfdetermination (internal, external) among the medical group students.
 7- Recognizing the extent to which self-determination (internal, external) contributes to genuine pride.
The researcher relied on the descriptive correlative approach as a methodology for her research and chose a sample of (400) male and female students from the faculties of the medical group at the University of Karbala, and they were chosen by a stratified random method with equal distribution in terms of the variable (sex, specialization, stage)
To achieve the objectives of her research, the researcher built an authentic pride scale. The psychometric properties of the two scales were extracted and the self-torque scale was adopted
 The researcher relied on processing the research data by statistical means that are compatible with the nature and objectives of the research through the statistical package (SPSS).
      The results of the research concluded that the students of the medical group have authentic pride and are distinguished by it at a high level. There are no significant differences in the original pride in terms of (stage, gender and specialization).
 As for the self-determination (internal – external), the results showed that there is no statistically significant difference for the variables (gender, stage, specialization).
The results of the current research were interpreted according to the two adopted research theories, and the research concluded with several recommendations, including:
Recommendations
  1- Emphasis on universities to trust the abilities and skills possessed by the students of the medical group.
2- The professors’ interest in using activities and tools that increase the student’s determination to achieve his goal and persevere in success, whether in academic subjects or outside the university through lectures that support the student.
3- Holding workshops and seminars that encourage authentic pride and how to continue the achievements despite internal and external circumstances. The medical group students face, the difficulty of study materials, bearing responsibility and knowledge of various medical tools
