The present study aimed to extract the Indicators of Validity and Reliability of the
Toulouse Self-Esteem Scale - Children's Copy. The Scale was translated from French to
Arabic and presented to a group of Arabic language specialists to ensure that
the wording
is correct, after which a counter-translation into the original language (French) was
performed to ensure the accuracy of the translation. The scale was applied to a random
sample of 413 children in Lattakia. The results of the study showed a high level of
accuracy with a high degree of stability (repeatability of 0.776 and alpha-cronbach 0.81 ),
identical to the statistical indicators of the Scale in its French version. A hypothesis was
then tested as to whether there was a difference between the average male and female
scores on the scale. It was found that there was a difference on the macro scale, the
dimensions of social self-sufficiency and school self-interest for females. And 71.4% of
individuals are at the high level of self-esteem.
The research concluded that more studies on the scale should be carried out in
different settings and should be used in the fields of education and psychology
