Moreover, the study found that there were no statistically significant differences between the average responses of the sample study members to the level of achieving political and social values in national education subject at AL ALBYT University due to the gender variable. Additionally, there were statistically significant differences between the average responses of the sample study members for the level of achieving economic values in the national education subject in AL ALBYT University due to the difference in gender.
