Abstract
The present study sought to achieve the two goals of developing a conceptual model of will based on Islamic sources and examining its validity using the method of linguistic semantics, qualitative content analysis and descriptive contextualization methodsBy forming the semantic field of will, 36 basic concepts of will are identified in Islamic sources.The results of the "content validity check" at this stage led to the elimination of 20 concepts and the remaining 16 concepts.The results of the search for explanatory descriptive sentences related to the sixteen concepts amounted to 52146 data based on the principle of saturation. They were screened in two stages, the weakness of the book and the lack of conceptual connection.The result of the screening was the removal of 51081 data and the remaining 1074 data, which were analyzed by coding them in three stages: primary open coding, central open coding, and selective open coding.The result of this process was 265 open codes,19 core codes and 4 selective codes.This process showed that, according to Islamic sources, the will consists of 19 components in the form of 4 dimensions.These components are: intellect and air of the soul (as a super-organizer),belief patterns, desires and needs, mood, environment. Socio-cultural (antecedent dimension), environmental events, attention, personal reflections, arousal, evaluation, intention, active effort, action (process dimension), psychological-spiritual collapse, worldly-hereafter confusion, psychological-spiritual growth, action organization and resilience (consequence dimension).These components were evaluated by 9 humanities and psychology experts and were evaluated as favorable using"Content Validity Index (CVI).This modelwillhavetheability tobe convertedinto psychologicalmeasures andeducational-psychological protocols.
