The study was carried-out in (30) primary schools that were selected through a simple random sampling of (125) schools from Hilla City. The instruments was composed of two parts , the first part was the demographic data and the second part was the Parent Efficacy for Child Healthy Weight Behavior (PECHWB) Scale, it consists of 41 items based on Australian guidelines for healthy weight behaviors. The validity of the instrument was achieved by eleven experts. Data were collected for the period from January 10th to March 5th, 2019. Data were analyzed using the statistical package for social sciences (SPSS) version 24.
Results: The study results revealed that most of pupils eat three or more serves of fruit and vegetables per day, minimize high fats and sugar intake, engaging in one hour of physical activity per day, and being no more than two hours in sedentary behavior per day on holidays/vacations and on weekends. Furthermore, they minimize high fats and sugar intake and eat healthy snacks on their demands/request. Moreover, they do not minimize high fats and sugar intake and eat healthy snacks when they are stressed or in bad mood and when they complain.

In this research, the focus was on estimating the parameters on (min- Gumbel distribution), using the maximum likelihood method and the Bayes method. The genetic algorithmmethod was employed in estimating the parameters of the maximum likelihood method as well as the Bayes method. The comparison was made using the mean error squares (MSE), where the best estimator is the one who has the least mean squared error. It was noted that the best estimator was (BLG_GE).
The principal components analysis is used in analyzing many economic and social phenomena; and one of them is related to a large group in our society who are the university instructors. This phenomenon is the delay occurred in getting university instructor to his next scientific title. And as the determination of the principal components number inside the principal components depends on using many methods, we have compared between three of these methods that are: (BARTLETT, SCREE DIAGRAM, JOLLIFFE).
We concluded that JOLLIFFE method was the best one in analyzing the studying phenomenon data among these three methods, we found the most distinguishing factors effecting on t
