Abstract :
In the community of policemen, responsibility is one of the issues that needs to be strengthened and developed and identification of the factors affecting it can be useful in its formulation; hence, this study aims to predict the responsibility attitude based on the sense of coherence and intelligence socially done. This research was descriptive-correlational. The statistical population of the study was consisted of all police commanders at county level and 82 of them were randomly selected. Responsibility Attitude Questionnaires (Salkovskis, 2000), Sense of coherence questionnaire (Antonovsky, 1987) and social intelligence questionnaire (Aung Tun Thet, 2008) were used. The method of analyzing the data was stepwise multiple regression analysis. The results of multivariate stepwise regression analysis showed that social intelligence and the manageability component of sense of coherence can significantly predict the responsibility attitude (P<0.001). In a summing up, it can be stated that social intelligence and sense of coherence play a complementary role in prediction of the responsibility attitude; social intelligence with increased stress and a sense of coherence with increased self-esteem.
