The current research has been conducted with the aim of identifying and investigating the effective factors of digital currency technology adoption in knowledge-based companies of Shiraz. The current research is considered an applied research in terms of its purpose. Considering that the purpose of this research is to provide a model and framework to identify factors affecting the adoption of digital currency technology; Therefore, no specific hypothesis is proposed for this research, but instead of testing the hypothesis, the researcher seeks to find the answers to the research questions as follows.What dimensions, components and indicators are included in the model of factors influencing the adoption of digital currency technology?What is the impact of the specified dimensions and factors on the adoption of digital currency technology in knowledge-based companies in Shiraz?In the new research method, the scope of the research is limited in terms of space, time and subject, so that there is a necessary focus on the subjects and the researcher can reach the desired answer by posing questions. Therefore, in this research, the subject, spatial and temporal scope of the current research are:Subject area: The current research is thematic in the field of digital marketing management in order to identify and examine the appropriate factors for the adoption of digital currency technology in knowledge-based companies.Spatial territory: Spatial territory of a research represents the environment of that research and the place where the research is carried out. In the current research, knowledge-based companies located in Science and Technology Park in Shiraz city and other knowledge-based companies in Shiraz city are selected as the spatial territory.Time domain: it is very important to conduct a research and collect its data in specific and precise time ranges, therefore the time range of this research is divided into two qualitative and quantitative categories, which is the collection of research literature and qualitative data in the second half of 2022 and Quantitative data collection and analysis was done in the first half of 2023.

Considering that this research uses a mixed approach, in the current research, in the qualitative section, through library studies, information is collected about indicators related to the acceptability of digital currency technology using the theories of technology acceptability, and in the section Shortly after designing the research model and model, the model is tested by examining the relationships between the variables. So this research will work with a mixed method. Therefore, the approach of this research is presented in an inductive and comparative form, the analysis method of this research is in the qualitative part of the content analysis using the information obtained from the studies and in the quantitative part, the survey strategy will be used in the knowledge-based companies of Shiraz. This research will be exploratory in the qualitative part and descriptive in the quantitative part, because in the qualitative discussion the researcher is looking for revelation and understanding and in the quantitative part, he is looking for description and explanation. The environment of this research will be in the qualitative part of the library and in the quantitative part of the field. In terms of philosophical foundations, this research is placed in the pragmatism paradigm. In this research, which uses qualitative content analysis, after defining the main question of the research, the researcher looks for the indicators needed for the research, then the indicators are divided into smaller categories in the form of coded categories and the smaller components are displayed in the form of more regular dimensions. According to these steps, first the research problem regarding the necessity or non-obligation of accepting digital currency in knowledge-based companies was determined, and the research question was determined that what dimensions, components and indicators are included in the digital currency technology acceptance model? After that, the research variables were selected based on the previous research literature and then its sampling, which includes articles, books, magazines and other scientific publications regarding the adoption of new technologies, especially digital currency. was selected, and in the next step, coding and categorization were done using related researches that have been done, and finally, the validity and reliability of the model was tested, and in other words, the final model was fitted.

The variables of economic control and economic trust are from the dimensions of economy-related factors, appropriate distribution and access variables, price-related factors, advertising from the dimension of marketing factors and individual trust variables, perceptual factors, attitude and related factors with the health of people, they can influence the acceptance of digital currency technology from an individual and social perspective. And only the variable of subjective norms from the individual and social dimension could not get the acceptable quorum.

Factors related to the economy, effective factors, and individual and social factors each contribute to the adoption of digital currency technology in knowledge-based companies in Shiraz.

Irritable bowel syndrome is a chronic psychosomatic disease. Stressful events play a critical role in this disease, and lifestyle modification is one of the treatment priorities for these patients. The present study aimed to examine the role of health-enhancing lifestyles among stressful life events and salutogenic health indicators in these patients.

Data analysis was done by structural equation modeling. The statistical population included all patients with irritable bowel syndrome referred to Imam Sajjad Hospital in Tehran in 2019 and 2020. The statistical sample was 229 patients selected through Purposive sampling and diagnosed by a psychiatrist based on ROME-IV criteria. Research tools included the Bringsen Salutogenic Health Indicators Scale, Sarason Life Events Inventory, and Walker HealthPromoting Lifestyle Profile-II. Data analysis was done by SPSS-20 and LISREL-8 software. Ethical considerations based on confidentiality, respect for the rights of individuals, human dignity, and avoiding harming the participants and distorting information were observed. Also Participants had full authority to withdraw from the study at any time.

The relationship between lifestyle (t=2.723, ß=0.17) and stressful events (t=-2.31, ß=-0.42) with salutogenic health indicators was significant. The mediating role of lifestyle between life events and salutogenic health indicators was meaningful at P<005 and a standard coefficient (0.0-13.11).

It seems that lifestyle and control over stressful events affect the health indicators of patients with irritable bowel syndrome. Therefore, it is suggested to provide appropriate training programs to control and manage stressful events and provide strategies to modify lifestyle to improve health.

Family-focused therapy (FFT) has been developed to address the significant impairments in psychosocial functioning among individuals with bipolar disorder (BD).

This study investigated the effectiveness of FFT combined with drug therapy in patient support in managing this disorder.

In this randomized controlled trial, 50 patients and their caregivers were randomly divided into 2 groups: A drug therapy group that only received medication and a family therapy group that received 15 one-hour sessions of FFT with their caregivers in addition to medication. The Expressed Emotion Questionnaire (EEQ), a modified version of the standard internal label questionnaire for the mentally ill, and theWorld Health Organization Quality of Life–Brief (WHOQOL-BREF) were used in the present study. Data were analyzed using the t-test.

Expressed emotion (EE) significantly decreased in the family therapy group (P = 0.001). Also, mental health and social health were better in the family therapy group than in the drug therapy group (P = 0.001). Nevertheless, no significant change was observed in the dimensions of physical and environmental health in both groups. The results of the study were relatively stable in all measurements in follow-up, except for the stigma.

Significant improvements were observed in EE and quality of life (QOL) in the family therapy group. This difference was not statistically significant in the stigma score despite the difference in the means of the 2 groups.

The evangelistic activity of Christianity has had many ups and downs in the history of Iran. The change from traditional evangelism to organizational evangelism was a big change that was more visible during the Qajar era. It is important to pay attention to these transformations in the sense that the evangelical boards had a political approach due to their dependence on their respective governments, and in this way, they faced the political ideology of the governments for religious and political reasons. The main question of the article is: What are the effects of political ideology in the Qajar period on the flow of Christian preaching? For the analysis a three-level analysis theory of political ideology, has been used. The findings of the research indicate that the evangelization flow during the Qajar rule adopted different approaches in accordance with the political crises. Due to the contradiction in the content and the great alienation of the political ideology of the Qajar government with the evangelization movement, this current has been active in general non-obvious periods and in other periods due to the predominance of financial and political dependence on Western countries and the lack of stability and power of the government.

The present study was conducted with the aim of Predicting the emotional regulation of people with cluster B personality disorder traits based on attachment styles and reflective functioning. The research method was a descriptive correlation. The statistical population included the students of Islamic Azad University, Central Tehran branch in the academic year 2021-2022. The sample size was 120 people who were selected by purposive sampling method. The research tools included the adult attachment inventory (AAI) Simpson (1990), Millon clinical multiaxial inventory (MCMI-III) Millon (1994), the reflective functioning questionnaire (RFQ) Fonagy et al. (2016) and the Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (ERQ) Gross and John (2003). The results of the regression test using the enter method showed that among the research variables, uncertainty (P=0.03 and β=-0.23), secure attachment style (P=0.002 and β=0.27), and avoidant (P=0.002 and β = -0.31) are predictors of emotion regulation. Also, the results showed that the predictor variables are able to predict 0.19 of the variance of the emotion regulation variable in people with traits of cluster B personality disorder. The result of the present study shows that paying attention to attachment styles and reflective performance by psychologists can help to explain emotional regulation in people with traits of cluster B personality disorder.

Many descendants of reputed Sadats lived in Mashhad who reached ijtihad. Rajali sources (i.e., sources on science of narrators) show that some of religious scholars of Mashhad who started their education in Mashhad but migrated to Isfahan and Atabat Aliyat, when returned, people referred to them -just like the famous Mujtahids of Qajar era. The purpose of this study was to provide readers with a clear picture and the edited version from the documents of Mashhad in Qajar era that has given us an acceptable vision for document studies of the city. The question is: using the documents, can we introduce an approximate time for document registration in Mashhad and a specific style of document writing of this city? The descriptive-analytical study used archived primary library sources. The results show the sublime position of Mirza Masoum Razavi’s descendants in specific authentication and registration of Shari’a documents in Qajar era. The study explores the role of Sadat Razavi’s dynasty in authentication and document registration in Mashhad in Qajar era, specially the emergence of double registration and the pioneering of one of the dynasties of Sadat Razavi. Generally these mujtahids started their education in Mashhad but migrated to Isfahan or Atabat Aliyat to complete it. They wrote their records on the lower right of the page and perpendicular to the main body (main text). They also invented double registration. Certain people of the dynasty who were registrar of religious issues, wrote concised sentences including at least two to four words in left side of the record, in Arabic language most of the time. Some documents reveal that Mirza Ahmad Razavi made common the shari’a documents registration in his court in 1280 AH.

Gastroentrology is a dominant medical study in military forces. Stress is found in the nature of military jobs and it is an important factor in irritable bowel syndrome. This study aimed to investigate the mediating role of health perception between life events and stress management with health status in military pateints with irritable bowel syndrome: A structural equation model approach

Methods and Materials: 

The population of the study was all patients with irritable bowel syndrome who were refered to Sajad clinic between the years of 2020 to 2021. The sample of study was 229 persons who were selected through purposeful sampling method and they were diagnosed based on ROME-IV criteria. Research tools included the Bringsen Salutogenic Health Indicators Scale, Epstein Stress Management Questionnaire, Adams the Perceived Wellness, and Sarason life event inventory. Data were analysed using mean, standard deviation, and regression correlation through SPSS software version 20. Moreover, structural equation model approach was used by LISREL software version 8.

This study showed that the structural model of health status based on stress management and life events mediated by health perception in military patients with IBS have desired goodness of fit. (RMSEA=0.08, NNFI =0.92 ، NFI= 0.90, IFI=0.90 ،CFI= 0.91 ، X2/DF=2.97). Analysis of direct path showed that stress management hase a direct, positive and significant effect on health status (t= 2.753, ß=0.17). The impact of life events on health status was direct, significant and negative (t= -2.31, ß= -42.0). On indirect path the health perception mediated role between stress management and life events with health status was significant at the level of 0.05 and standard coefficient (0.11-0.13)

Considering the role of stress management, life events and health perception on health status, it is recommended that proper training can be provided on stress management, life events control; improve health perception training to increase the abilities of promoting health status in military patients with IBS.

Objectives:

 Elderly with psychological disorders are at risk of malnutrition. Investigating the nutritional status and identifying the effective factors among the preventive and control measures. This study aims to investigate the nutritional status and its relationship with health status and micronutrients level in older people with psychological disorders.

Methods & Materials:

 In this cross-sectional survey, 101 older people admitted to Razi Psychiatric Hospital in Tehran, Iran in 2018 participated. The data were collected after blood sampling and assessing body mass index (BMI) using a demographic form, the Mini Nutritional Assessment tool and a health status questionnaire. The collected data were analyzed by the chi-square test, ANOVA and logistic regression analysis in SPSS v. 21.

Results:

 Almost three-quarters of the participants had an abnormal nutritional status. The results showed that the nutritional status of participants had a significant relationship with dental health status, physical activity, the serum levels of vitamin D and vitamin B12, and BMI (P<0.05). After logistic analysis, vitamin B12 level (OR=1.007, 95% CI: 1.002-1.012), physical activity (OR=8.539, 95%CI: 1.142-63.85) and dental health status (OR=23.119, 95%CI:1.401-38.788) were reported as the predictors of nutritional status. It was reported that 95% of the elderly had vitamin D deficiency.

Conclusion:

 Most of the elderly with psychological disorders are at risk of malnutrition or have malnutrition. The identified predictors of malnutrition for this group are modifiable. Therefore, regular screening and nutritional management should be strengthened for their therapeutic interventions.

A large number of gastrointestinal diseases observed in the military may have serious effects on health. Most research on variables related to coping with irritable bowel syndrome has focused on the pathogenic perspective (risk factors such as life events) rather than the salutogenic perspective (factors such as coping and adaptation). In this study, the variables emphasized by the salutogenic perspective were used to develop a structural model for health indicators based on coping resources and stress management, mediated by a health-promoting lifestyle in police patients with irritable bowel syndrome.

This study was a correlation design of structural equation modeling. Police patients with irritable bowel syndrome were the statistical population of this study who referred to the gastrointestinal and psychiatric clinic of one of the police hospitals in 2020 and 2021. The statistical sample size was 250 people who were randomly selected from patients and were diagnosed with irritable bowel syndrome by a psychiatrist based on ROME-IV criteria. Research tools included the Bringsen Health Salutogenic Indicators Scale (Cronbach's alpha 0.81), Epstein Stress Management Questionnaire (Cronbach's original version 0.80 and translated version 0.94), Walker Health-Promoting Lifestyle Profile Questionnaire (Cronbach's alpha 0.82) and the Matheny Stress Coping Resources Questionnaire (Cronbach's alpha of the original version was 0.84 to 0.97 and the translated version was 0.94). Data were analyzed using SPSS 24 and SmartPLS-3 software by Pearson correlation test and structural equation path analysis.

Fitness indices as a result of testing the hypothetical model and the structural model showed the relationship between coping resources and stress management with lifestyle mediation on health indices which had desirable fitness. Path analysis of this model showed that in the direct path, the effect of stress management (λ=0.11; t=3.11; p=0.05), coping resources (λ=0.37; t=3.01; p=0.01) and health-promoting lifestyle (λ=0.20; t=3.16; p=0.01) were significant on salutogenic health indices. In the indirect path, the lifestyle mediating model between stress management and coping resources with salutogenic health indicators was significant at the level of 0.05 and standard coefficient (0.11-0.13).

This study showed that a health-promoting lifestyle can positively and significantly mediate the relationship between coping resources and stress management with salutogenic health indicators in a selected sample of police patients referred to a police medical center.

 Conventional psychiatric treatments have weaknesses in the treatment of schizophrenia spectrum disorders and have little effect on skill-training and community-based areas. Therefore, the present study aimed to investigate the role of the Community Re-entry Program as a community-based complementary therapy in increasing therapeutic compliance and reduction of relapse and rehospitalization in patients with schizophrenia spectrum disorders.

The present study was performed by quantitative method with repeated measures and using randomized clinical trial (RCT) research design. The statistical population of the study included all patients who were admitted to the acute wards of Raazi Psychiatric Hospital between January 20 and March 20, 2017, with a diagnosis of at least one of the schizophrenia spectrum disorders. A total of 80 patients with inclusion criteria were selected by simple random sampling and randomly assigned to the intervention (40 patients) and control (40 patients) groups using a random number table. The Intervention method was the “Community Re-entry Program” which was performed in 16 group sessions with a frequency of 4 sessions per week, in combination with conventional psychiatric treatment in the experimental group, while the patients in the control group received only conventional psychiatric treatment. The only tool used in the present study was a demographic questionnaire and the variables of therapeutic compliance and reduction of relapse and rehospitalization were also evaluated at intervals of 1, 3, and 6 months after discharge through telephone interviews with patients' families. The use of drugs, relapse of the symptoms, and rehospitalization of patients were evaluated in the mentioned time periods. Collected information and data were analyzed using SPSS-16.

 The results showed that the implementation of community re-entry program in combination with conventional psychiatric treatment had an effect on increasing therapeutic compliance ( = 40/145, P= 0/001) and reduction of relapse ( = 45/54, P= 0/001) and rehospitalization rates ( = 40/75, P= 0/001) in patients.

 The Community Re-entry Program, as an adjunct to conventional psychiatric treatment, is one of the effective interventions to increase therapeutic compliance and reduce the rate of relapse and rehospitalization. In order to compensate for the weakness of conventional psychiatric treatment in increasing therapeutic compliance and reducing the relapse and rehospitalization rate of patients with schizophrenia spectrum disorders, non-pharmacological complementary therapies such as Community Re-entry Programs can be used.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of economic poverty in social and political participation and social harms in deprived neighborhoods of Javanrood Quantitative research method was selected using a survey, the statistical population was 16404 people and the sample size was 376 people. The multi-stage cluster questionnaire was completed. Findings showed that less than 20% of respondents had a washing machine, computer, personal library and home furniture at home. Between 20 and 40 percent of respondents in their family have been involved with at least one social injury. Social and political participation has been below average. Regression analysis showed that the coefficient of impact of economic poverty on social participation was 0.13 and political participation was -0.22, ie the more economically poor people were the less social participation and the more political participation. The results of logistic regression analysis showed that respondents with less poverty were less likely to experience social harms, conflict, running away from home, divorce and addiction in their families. Conversely, they were more likely to experience social harms such as domestic violence, dropouts, child labor, and a history of imprisonment. In general, it can be concluded that poverty in the study population, as well as their education, income and occupation, has shown that poverty is a capability and structure that this poverty has shown in access to sustainable livelihood facilities and the formation of a kind of Social harms, social and political participation has led to deprived neighborhoods of Javanrood.

Falls are among the most common accidents in psychiatric hospitals. One of the possible causes of falls is vitamin B12 deficiency, which is especially prevalent among older adults. However, it was not ignored in previous studies.

This clinical trial was conducted on older patients with chronic psychiatric diseases admitted to a psychiatric hospital. Based on the data obtained from the multi-factorial fall risk assessment tool (MAHC-10) developed by the Missouri Alliance for Home Care (MAHC) and Tinetti Balance Assessment Tool, the patients at risk of falls were identified and their serum vitamin B12 levels were measured. The patients with vitamin B12 deficiency were selected to be studies in a 3-month trial. At the end of the trial, the patients took the Tinetti test once again. Pre- and post-intervention variables were compared with each other using the dependent t-test. P values of ≤ 0.05 were considered statistically significant.

After screening, 10 patients showed vitamin B12 deficiency and were included in the intervention. The mean age and length of stay of the patients were 66.30 ± 10.17 years and 24.55 ± 18.39 months, respectively. The mean scores for the “balance-gait” variable before and after the intervention were 13.40 ± 4.30 and 23.70 ± 4.15, respectively. These figures revealed a significant difference between the two groups (P = 0.001). 

This study showed that vitamin B12 deficiency may be an often-overlooked cause of gait disorders in older patients with psychiatric problems. Treatment with vitamin B12 supplements can reduce the risk of falls in such patients.

he experience of divorce affects the psychological well-being of women. Among the treatment approaches that can improve the psychological well-being of divorced women is schema therapy and treatment based on acceptance and commitment.

The purpose of this study was to explore the lived experiences of career couples from satisfaction and marital conflicts.

The method of the present study is quasi-experimental with pre-test and post-test in three groups. The statistical population included all divorced women who referred to counseling and psychological counseling centers in Tehran in the second half of 2019 due to psychological consequences after divorce. In order to select the statistical sample using purposive sampling method, first 45 people were selected and then 15 people were randomly placed in the first experimental group, 15 people in the second experimental group and 15 people in the control group. The research instrument was Reef Psychological Well-Being Scale (1989). Data were analyzed using analysis of covariance and SPSS22 software.

Statistical findings showed that both therapeutic approaches used were effective in increasing participantschr('39') psychological well-being (p< 0/05), but the difference between schema therapy and acceptance-commitment therapy at the level of 0.05 was not significant for psychological well-being.

Considering the effectiveness of schema therapy and treatment based on acceptance and commitment on psychological well-being and its subscales, it is suggested that counseling centers and family clinics for divorced women who are exposed to psychological consequences after divorce prioritize these two approaches. Use group counseling and psychotherapy

The prevalence of aging and chronic psychiatric disorders is increasing. Older people hospitalized are at risk of malnutrition. In this study, the nutritional status of the elderly living in a psychiatric hospital was investigated, and also related factors were extracted.

This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted in 2018. One hundred and one older adults over 60 years old in Razi Psychiatric Hospital in Tehran were selected using convenience sampling. Data were collected using a demographic information questionnaire and the Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA). SPSS software version 21 and Chi-square test were used to analyze the data.

Most of the elderly were in the age range of 60 to 75 years, and 51.5 percent were female. At-risk and malnourished status, the average prevalence was 22.8%, 59.4%, and 17.8%, respectively. There was a significant relationship between education level, dental status, aspiration, balance status, the experience of an acute disease or stress in the last three months, and the level of physical activity with the nutritional status of the elderly (P<0.05).

More than three-quarters of the elderly were malnourished or at risk of malnutrition. Therefore, it is necessary to take appropriate measures to improve the situation. In this regard, the formulation and implementation of interventions following the associated factors extracted in this study will be helpful.

Mutation in SLC26A4 gene is one of reason of syndromic and non-syndomic hearing loss. Mutation in this gene is reported to be the second most common cause of deafness in the worldwide, after GJB2 gene. The aim of this study was to evaluate mutations in exon 10 of SLC26A4 gene in individuals with hearing loss in Guilan province.

In this descriptive cross-sectional study, blood samples were collected from 31 individuals with hearing loss from Guilan province. After DNA extraction, exon 10 of SLC26A4 gene was amplified by PCR method and underwent direct sequencing.

In this study, 22 women (71%) and 9 men (29%) with hearing loss were found and in five patients (16%) was detected mutation in exon 10 of SLC26A4 gene. Four patients had base substitution in codon 399 (c.1195T>C, p.S399P) as heterozygous. Also, in a patient was found a nucleotide deletion in codon 399 (c.1197delT, p.S399SfsX31) as homozygous.

It seems that mutation in SLC26A4 is one of the important reasons of deafness in hearing loss individual in Guilan province.

Patients with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) show poor cognitive performance during neuropsychological tests. Literature is scarce regarding veterans suffering with chronic PTSD. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to compare the cognitive deficiencies of veterans with chronic PTSD with those of healthy participants.
A total of 51 hospitalized veterans and 45 healthy individuals were selected using a purposeful sampling method. Both groups performed a simple Stroop Test and the Continuous Performance Test (CPT) and completed the PTSD Checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5).
The results of independent samples t-test showed a significant difference in cognitive impairment between the veterans with PTSD and healthy subjects, and the veterans had lower performances on most aspects of the tests than that of the control group.
According to our results, veterans with chronic PTSD showed lower cognitive performance than that of healthy individuals. This suggests that examination of the cognitive functioning of patients with PTSD can be useful in the diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of PTSD.

World Health Organization has defined health in 1948 as “welfare of complete physical, mental and social well-being, and not just being sick or disabled”. (Officialreport of the World Health Organization, 2002, p. 100).According to this definition, health is a “state of complete physical, mental and social well-being”, (WHO, the international health conference, New York, 19–22 June 1946) and accordingly, social well-being is one of the aspects of individual’s public health. Individuals’ health is one of the basic foundations of a balanced society and clearly the survival of any society depends on its members. Health has a direct impact on individual’s quality of life; hence, that’s why scientists have considered health issuesfor a long time andconducted many studies on physical and mental health. However, social well-being is one of the most important aspects of health that has been ignored and less attention has been paid to it by researchers.

Theoretical Framework: In this study, Keyes’s (1998) theory has been taken as a definition model and the framework to provide indicators of social well-being. According to Keyes (1998), social well-being refers to the appraisal of one’s own circumstances and functioning in society. Keyes defined five dimensions of social well-being, namely, social integration, social acceptance, social contribution, social realization and social coherence. Social integration consists of individuals’ appraisal of the quality of their own relation with society and community. It refers to the degree to which people feel they have something in common with others and they belong to their own community, in contrast to feelings of isolation and loneliness. Social acceptance refers to positive attitudes toward other people.Individuals who get a higher score on this dimension trust others and have favorable opinions on the human nature. Social contribution refers to the feeling of being a vital member of the society, with something important to offer to the world. Social actualization is the evaluation of the potentials of society and social groups, and corresponds to the idea that society has potentials that can come true by institutions and citizens. Social coherence refers to the perception of the quality and the organization of social world, and reflects a sense that social life and society are meaningful and intelligible.

The study population included all students at Ferdowsi University of Mashhad in the academic year 2012 that were selected using stratified sampling with an estimated sample size of 379. The instruments of the study were Keyes’s (1998) Social Well-being Scale,Hiobner’s(1991) Life Satisfaction Scale, and Social Support Scale as well asdemographic information of participants. The participantswere randomly selected from 15 faculties based on academic disciplines, gender, and the number of students enrolled in each faculty. The Reliability of the scales were assessed by Cronbach's alpha and all of the scales were above 0.70; as a result, it indicated that the questionnaireswere reliable. Furthermore, Factor Analysis was used to assess the validity of the questionnaires. Accordingly, the findings showed thatall five dimensions of social well-being loaded truly on their factor in accordance with Keyes theory.

The respondents were 22.7 years oldin average (176male and 203 female). The majority of students were single (about 77 percent). In this study, the mean score of social well-being is 65.7. In otherwords, it can be concluded that the social well-being of Ferdowsi university students is above average. The students hit the highest point of social well-being in social integration dimension and also the minimum score was in the dimension of social acceptance. There was no significant relationship between gender and dimensions of social well-being, except for social actualization. The results show that some variables including age, marital status, and membership in student associations, being satisfied with life, and having social support affect social well-being. The result of regression analysis shows that three variables including age, satisfaction with life and social support affect social well-being simultaneously. Multiple correlation coefficient factors affecting social well-being is 0.51, coefficientof determinationis 0.26, and adjusted coefficientof determination is 0.25.   The average social well-being scores show that Ferdowsi University students are in a good position in this case. Among five dimensions, respondents have got the highest score in social integration and with a little difference in social contribution while they have got the lowest score in social acceptance. Social integration represents the evaluation of the quality of individual’s relationship with the community; a high level of this dimension represents a sense of belonging to the community and believing to common things between people and community.The results about social acceptance illustrates that students have not a positive attitude toward the people; in other words, it shows the low level of social trust among them. In this research, it is approved that social support, as the most influential variable, can play an important role in improving student’s social well-being. Thus, it is necessary that family and university pay attention to this matter. In addition, university can improve the social well-being of students by facilitating student’s communications with each other and with student’s associations

During the Qajar period, there were events in Iran that were new for the society, one of them was the beginning of a scientific and modern mapping by Iranians themselves. Prior to this event in the Iranian community, a descriptive text was set up in the form of document named the letter concerning property limits (ḥadnāma). This text was compiled by a number of trusted experts familiar with the property limit and its local geographic environment. Although the modern mapping in Iran began later than France, in a short time some surveyors, including Mīrza ‘Abd al-Razzāq, Brigadier Bughāyirī, succeeded in drawing up maps of the border areas as well as urban and rural areas. In addition, by request of the state and some property owners, he provided maps on different scale. This event can be interpreted as the transformation of the Iranian mind and a forward movement.

The aim of this study was to discover teaching practices and strategies employed in IELTS preparatory courses taught via strategy-based vs. nonstrategy-based instruction in Isfahan, Iran. In so doing, two preparatory courses: strategy-based vs. nonstrategy-based instruction were selected. Courses were observed by employing Communicative Orientation of Language Teaching (COLT) which is a standard observation scheme (Hayes, 2003). The results revealed that positive washback was observed in both strategy-based and nonstrategy-based classes and candidates in strategy-based group outperformed their counterparts in nonstrategy-based group in reading and writing section of IELTS. In contrast, nonstrategy-based group performed significantly better in speaking section. There was, however, no significant difference between the two groups'' performance on the listening section of the test. The findings of the study will have implications for both IELTS teachers and preparation centers in determining effective teaching methods for the courses they offer.

The need to design secure underground structures against earth-penetrating bombs, not secret. Since our country is located on an earthquake belt, mostly in the design of seismic behavior of structures is given. In this study, the behavior of seismic resistant tunnel under blast loads will be examined to better determine their weaknesses. and terrestrial environments has the ability to dynamically analyze, to study the loading surface wave propagation and damping caused by the explosion and its impact on the stability of underground structures, are used. Studies show that with increasing depth of burial effects of surface waves bombs on underground structures is reduced.

The aim of this paper is to minimize the period of manufacturing in the flow shop scheduling problem without intermediate queues. Scheduling problem without intermediate queues occurs when the process of one job should be processed on the machines from start to finish without interrupting. Since this structure is similar to standard traveling salesman problem, in the present study, a new approach was applied to calculate the tardiness, in which the tardiness matrix obtained from salesman problem is used to find the optimal sequence of operations that has a shortest distance time. Furthermore, the greedy random adaptive search algorithm (GRASP) as meta-heuristic algorithm is applied to solve the sequencing workflow without queues central workshop problem and its performance is compared to the ant colony algorithm after determining the its parameters through full factorial experimental design method.

ADHD (attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder) is a developmental disorder that has been attracting the attention of psychologists and psychiatrists for a long time. The purpose of this research was to study the effectiveness of training in improving attention and working memory on continuous performance in ADHD children. This was a semi-expremental study performed on 44 ADHD children referred to psychiatric clinics in Babol city. They were equally divided into the experimental and the control groups. The performance of the members belonging to both groups was assessed using the continuous performance test in the pretest stage. Each member of the experimental group was then individually trained for 20 half-hour sessions (three half-hour sessions per week for a period of seven weeks) using attention and working memory improvement software. After the training period, post-test was conducted on members of both groups using the mentioned software. Results of ANCOVA indicated that despite increased continuous performance in both the experimental and the control groups in the post-test stage, the increased continuous performance in the experimental group was greater compared to the control group. Therefore, training in improving attention and working memory was effective in increasing continuous performance in ADHA children. Training in improving attention and working memory, and similar trainings, can be considered as complementary treatment method, or a substitute method for medicines.
