The present research aims at investigated psychometric properties of the Adolescent Self Regulatory Inventory (ASRI) among a sample of Iranian female students. The ASRI is a theoretically-based questionnaire that taps two temporal aspect of selfregulation (regulation in the short and long term). The subjects consisted of all female students of secondary school who studies in schools of Shahin-Shahr (city in Isfahan Province) during the school year 2014-2015. In this regard¡ 336 students of Shahin-Shahr secondary schools were selected using random cluster sampling method and were asked to completed self-report questionnaire focused on intentional self-regulation (Adolescent Self-Regulatory Inventory and Model of Selection¡ Optimization¡ and Compensation (SOC) ) and psychological adjustment (Adjustment Inventory for High School Students). Confirmatory factor analysis demonstrated that internal consistency of the long-term and short-term factors was satisfactory. Requirements for concurrent and construct validity were met. Cronbach''s alpha coefficient for short-term and long-term self-regularly subscales were 0/81 (ST) and 0/80 (LT). Finally¡ the results suggested that ASRI was two-factor¡ reliable tool for assessing and evaluating dimensions of intentional self-regulation in adolescence.

The aim of present study was to survey of relation between goal orientations¡ personal beliefs about cheating and neutralizing attitudes with cheating behaviors. The participants were 335 students selected from Semnan university using multistage cluster sampling method. For assessing the research variables¡ the participants completed two measures: Academic Cheating Questionnaire (2007) and Achi- evement Goal Questionnaire (Elliot & McGregor¡ 2001). The relationships between variables were
examined by a causal model. The results of path analysis by using LISREL software¡ showed direct and indirect effects of goal orientations on cheating behaviors¡ personal beliefs about cheating and neutralizing attitudes. Also beliefs about cheating and neutralizing attitudes directly and indirectly predicated cheating behaviors. The most important results of this research was influence of neutralization of responsibility on
cheating behaviors and indirectly by mediating personal beliefs about cheating. And this variable predicted the most variance of cheating behaviors than others.

The purpose of current study was to investigate the effectiveness of precision teaching method on reading fluency skills in children with reading problems. In this research¡ reading fluency is taught in reading words. Out of context. Multiple-baseline across subjects was selected as a research design in recent study. Participants were three third graders; two girls and one boy. History taking¡ the fourth edition of Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC-IV)¡ Reading and Dyslexia Test¡ Fluency Reading Test was developed by researcher¡ were applied in the current study. Effect size and visual analysis were used to analyze the data. Results indicated a considerable difference between the baseline and intervention phase of the participants and they also indicated that the training resulted in considerable improvement in the variable of word reading fluency. Training resulted in an improvement in the performance of participants in reading fluently. In addition¡ follow up data indicated that the effects of the intervention procedures were stable across time.

The aim of this study was to investigate the motivational and personality factors as predictors of academic burnout in high School Students in Ahwaz. Sample was consisted of 350 students (200 boys and 150 girls) who were selected by multistage sampling procedures. In this study¡ subjects completed the following instruments McInerney & Sink Layer School Motivation Questionnaire (1992)¡ NEO-Five Factor Inventory (1987) and Maslach Burnout Questionnaire. Data analysis was accomplished by using Pearson correlation coefficient and multiple regression analysis (stepwise method) was performed. Data analysis using Pearson correlation coefficient and multiple regression analysis (stepwise method) was performed data indicated that conscientiousness and extroversion negatively predicts school burnout. Between agreeableness and openness to experience and academic burnout relationship was observed. Generally¡ the results showed that motivation and personality play an important role in the development of academic burnout.

The aim of this study was to compare the Brain/behavioral systems and dimensions of executive functions in smokers¡ drug abusers and normal individuals. For this purpose¡ 90 people in three groups of 30 smokers¡ substance abusers and ordinary people were selected through available sampling procedure. Finally¡ in order to test the hypothesis and goals of this study¡ participants were studied based on Torrubia Sensitivity to Reward¡ Punishment and Cognitive Abilities Scale. The results showed that significant differences between three groups Brain/ behavioral systems and executive functions. So that people with drug abuse and smokers had higher sensitivity to punishment¡ Also results showed that people with drug abuse¡ had a higher sensitivity to reward than to punishment. On the one hand comparison groups showed that individuals with substance abuse and smokers had a lower status in executive functions. Therefore¡ drug abuse and smoking can be the result of personality traits¡ that led to destruction of executive functions.

The aim of this study was to investigate the structural relationship between assertiveness and happiness with the mediation of self-efficacy. For this purpose 356 undergraduate students were selected from the state universities of Tehran through random sampling. Three authentic questionnaires were used to collect data. These questionnaires included Oxford Happiness Questionnaire¡ Assertiveness Inventory¡ Sherer¡ General Self-Efficacy Scale. The reliability and validity of these instruments were checked and confirmed by the researchers. Path analysis using structural equation modeling was implemented for data analysis. Findings showed that the model had a good fitness with the research’s data and assertiveness and self-efficacy predicted happiness directly. Besides¡ assetiveness could predict happiness indirectly and more strongly than direct path with the mediation of self-efficacy. These findings indicated that assertiveness not only was a predictor of happiness¡ but also could predict it more strongly via self-efficacy.

The purpose of the present study was to predict the attitude toward social roles¡ based on religious beliefs and moral foundations in female adolescents. To accomplish the stated goal¡ 300 female adolescents in junior and senior high school students in Tehran were selected by using convenience sampling and administered and Social Roles Questionnaire (Baber & Tucker¡ 2006)¡ Moral Foundations Questionnaire (Haidt & Graham¡ 2007)¡ and the Shortened PostCritical Belief Scale (Duriez¡ Soenens & Hutsebaut¡ 2005) were administered on them. Data were analyzed using statistical methods of the Pearson correlation coefficient and stepwise regression analysis. Results indicated that gender transcendent attitude among the variables was significant negatively correlation only with fairness (p
