| Abstract | ||
| The present study examines the credibility of the null hypothesis which illustrates that (there are no significant differences between the group under experiment and the group under control concerning fanaticism). It examines as well religious fanaticism among university students of (19-23) years old illustrating gender-wise discrepancies between female and male as detected. When the fanaticism scale has been applied to (220) male and female students, the marks of (20) of them surpassed the value of the cut point which is the hypothetical average on the scale; an outcome that necessitated applying the emotional catharsis program to them. The latter needed (8) sessions, each of which lasted (45) minutes for four weeks, i. e., two sessions a week, during which special techniques and technologies based on Freud’s theory of psychoanalysis have been applied. The results , by the use of Mann Whitney’s test, have shown a rejection of the null hypothesis and reliance on the alter hypothesis instead; that the emotional catharsis program has actually helped reduce fanaticism among university students. | ||
