The research sample includes 10^th grade students some schools namely (Wani for Boys – Rhubarb for Girls - Barzani Namr for Boys- Nanakali for Girls - Ahmadi Khani for Boys), which includes 240 students, 120 female students, and 120 male students.

This procedure begun in the second semester on 1 February 2021 and continued till (2022/2/20).

In order to Analyze the result, the researchers used SPSS Statistics

The result was as follows:

- The absence of statistical function differences at the level (0.05) at the level of ownership of habits of mind according to gender variable (male and female), except for (reckless control) means statistical meaning at a level (0.05) for male interest.
