Abstract

This study aims to investigate the relationship between interpersonal goals, relational interdependent self-construal, and communal orientation among volunteer community service students at the University of Jordan. The participants included 320 volunteer community service students, comprising 83.1% females and 16.9% males. Their ages ranged from 18 to 24 years. Participants were asked to complete online self-report measures of interpersonal goals, relational interdependent self-construal, and communal orientation. The results show a statistically significant difference in communal orientation attributed to the interaction among compassionate goals, gender, and college sections, favoring males in scientific colleges. However, there was no statistically significant difference in relational interdependent self-construal based on the interaction among compassionate goals, gender, and college sections. Finally, the results revealed a high level of interpersonal goals and communal orientation, along with a moderate level of relational interdependent self-construal.
