Abstract
The current research aims to identify:

2. Social desirability among kindergarten students.
3. The correlation between pretended behavior and social desirability among kindergarten students.
4. Significance of statistical differences in the correlation between pretended behavior and social desirability among kindergarten students according to the variable of the school stage (first, second, third and fourth)

The research sample consisted of (400) female students from the Kindergarten Department, who were chosen by a simple random method in proportion and proportion from the female students of the Kindergarten Department in the College of Basic Education at Al-Mustansiriya University.
The researcher used two tools, the first is the artificial behavior scale, as the researcher prepared it, and it consists of (39) items, and the second tool is the social desirability scale of Marlow Crowne, 1969, which was adopted by the researcher, and it consists of (28) items distributed on two dimensions, namely (attribution and denial). .
The researcher verified the psychometric properties of the two scales through virtual validity, as she presented the paragraphs to (13) experts, and constructive validity in the manner of the two extreme groups (discrimination power, the correlation of the paragraph score with the total score of the scale, the correlation of the paragraph score with the total score of the field to which it belongs, and the correlation of the scale domains among themselves ), and the stability of the two scales was verified by the re-test method and the application of Cronbach's alpha equation.
After applying the two tools on the research sample and analyzing the data, the researcher reached the following results:
1. The weakness of the pretended behavior of the students of the Kindergarten Department
2. Kindergarten students are characterized by social desirability.
3. There is a positive correlation between pretended behavior and social desirability among kindergarten students.
4. There are differences in the relationship between pretended behavior and social desirability according to these stages (the second and fourth stage) and (the third and fourth stage), and these differences were in favor of the second and third stage.
5. Behavior that pretends to be socially desirable contributes to a small percentage of 35%.
After reaching the results, the researcher recommended the following:
• The family should cultivate self-confidence in the hearts of its children, especially girls, during education, and seek to prevent strange appearances in dress and imitative and artificial behaviors that lead to the girl's loss of her spontaneity and nature, through constructive guidance and awareness.
• Holding scientific seminars to educate female students about aspects of mental health, including artificial behavior. The researcher suggested taking the following actions:
• Conducting a study of the effect of artificial behavior on other social classes such as kindergarten teachers, parents, ...etc
• Conducting a study to identify the effect of a counseling program in reducing the artificial behavior of kindergarten students.
• Conducting a study of the relationship of artificial behavior with other variables such as (emotional deprivation, family violence, birth order, self-confidence, low self-esteem, obsession with perfection, self-love, etc.).
• Conducting a study of the relationship of social desirability with other variables such as (excessive sensitivity to criticism, self-love, need for love, anxiety, physical style, ambition...etc).
