Abstract

This study aims at investigating the relationship between interpersonal goals, relational interdependent self- construal and communal orientation among volunteer community service students at the University of Jordan. Participants are 320 volunteer community service students; 83.1%females and 16.9% males. The age ranged between (18-24) years. Participants are asked to fill out online self-report measures of interpersonal goals, relational interdependent self- construal and communal orientation. The results show that there is a statistically significant difference in communal orientation attributed to the interaction among compassionate goals, gender and college sections in favor of males in scientific colleges. The results also show that there is no statistically significant difference in relational interdependent self-construal attributed to the interaction among compassionate goals, gender and college sections. Finally, the results revealed high level of interpersonal goals, communal orientation and moderate level of relational interdependent self-construal.

Keywords: Interpersonal goals, relational interdependent self- construal, communal orientation, volunteer community service students.
