Abstract

The aim of the current research is to identify some psychological variables associated with coexistence styles among tuk-tuk drivers. The researcher selected the research sample through the snowball method, tracking samples from the Ain Shams area, specifically from the garage parking lot for service cars and tuk-tuks. Tuk-tuks are the main means of transportation from the internal streets of the area to the main street of Suez Bridge, where the garage metro station and taxis heading to various areas in Cairo are located. A group of males aged 20-45 years was selected from tuk-tuk drivers, resulting in a final sample size of 60 males. To achieve the research objectives, the following research tools were applied: the Psychological Variables Scale for Tuk-Tuk Drivers (prepared by the researcher) and the Coexistence Styles Scale for Tuk-Tuk Drivers (prepared by the researcher). The results for the first hypothesis showed a statistically significant correlation between psychological variables and coping styles among tuk-tuk drivers. The results for the second hypothesis indicated statistically significant differences on the scale of psychological variables for tuk-tuk drivers based on certain social characteristics (educational level and number of years of work as a tuk-tuk driver), particularly in the variables of stress and aggression, but not in the variables of life satisfaction and professional compatibility. Furthermore, the results for the third hypothesis partially supported the hypothesis on the index of problem-focused life pressures, emotion-focused life pressures, and avoidance life pressures for the coexistence styles scale, but did not support the hypothesis on the index of social support-focused life pressures for the number of years of work as a tuk-tuk driver.
