This research aims to identify the level of positive thinking among female students of Early Childhood Department, Faculty of Education, Jouf University, and to uncover the most common dimensions of positive thinking among them. The sample was chosen from (30) female students for the exploratory sample and (129) female students for the basic sample, to verify the psychometric properties of the scale used. The research tools included the Positive Thinking Scale (Prepared by Ibrahim, 2011) consisting of (110) items distributed on ten axes. One of the most important results of the research was a marked increase in the level of positive thinking, as the arithmetic mean and percentage of female students grades on the positive thinking scale were (197.16) and (89.62%), respectively. There were differences between the studied dimensions of positive thinking according to the distribution of the arithmetic mean and the percentage for each of them, where optimism and positive expectations came in the first place, while positive risk came in the last order. Non-statistically significant differences were found between female students according to their different academic levels (first, third, fifth, seventh) on the positive thinking scale.
