    Purpose

    The purpose of this study was to design a biorhythm management model for Iranian public school principals with a fuzzy Delphi approach.

    Methodology

    The design of the present study was qualitative with fuzzy Delphi method. Statistical population, professors of organizational behavior management in universities of Mazandaran province and senior managers of education departments in cities of Mazandaran province were selected and four rounds of fuzzy Delphi technique were performed with their cooperation. This selection and interviewing continued until the theoretical saturation was reached. Using the "rich information" sampling method with 15 professors of organizational behavior management in the universities of Mazandaran province and senior managers of education departments in the cities of Mazandaran province, the required information with semi-structured questionnaires Collected in four rounds. SPSS software was used to analyze the data.

    Findings

    The results showed that the biorhythm management model of Iranian public school principals has four cycles and 28 dimensions of physical cycle (physical) (high mobility and energy, high physical strength, physical endurance and stability, physical weakness (negative), decreased physical ability (negative), inactivity and lethargy (negative), doing useful work and extreme fatigue (negative) ), Emotional cycle (interest in work and life, kindness, immorality and temper (negative), irritability (negative), confusion and mental weakness (negative), love of others, the power of creativity in affairs and mobility in Against the behavior of others (negative), intellectual cycle (mental) (rational) (promotion of intelligence, comprehension and memory, forgetfulness (negative), mental laziness (negative), poor decision-making power (negative), thinking power in affairs , Gaining new ideas and not focusing on personal and work affairs (negative) and intuitive cycle (inner inspiration, strong sixth sense, absorbing negative energy (negative) and attracting the spiritual forces of nature).

    Purpose

    The aim of this study was to explain the effectiveness of the model of established methods in autism (functional behavior analysis of ABA, Snowlen, and Dosa) based on the level of attention in children with autism spectrum disorder in Tehran.

    Methodology

    The research method was quasi-experimental with a pretest-posttest design with a control group. The statistical population of this study was all children with autism spectrum disorder in Tehran in public and private educational and rehabilitation centers in 2018. By available sampling method, 48 people were selected and randomly divided into 4 intervention groups by applied behavior analysis method. , Snozelen, dosa and control group were divided. Data were collected based on the Connors Scale Scale (Parent Form) (1999), a modified review checklist, and the Wechsler intelligence test. Descriptive and inferential statistical methods and multivariate analysis of covariance were used to eliminate the pretest effect using SPSS software was used.

    Findings

    The results showed that all three methods of functional behavior analysis of ABA, Snozlen and Dosa had a significant effect on increasing attention compared to the control group. Also, ABA applied behavior analysis method had a greater effect on improving attention in the three measurement stages than the other two experimental groups.

    Conclusion

    The findings of the study showed that the use of these interventions and educational programs as a method in improving and rehabilitating children with this disorder is useful, so the use of this method is recommended. The results showed that the difference between the analysis of functional behavior of ABA, Snozlen and Dosa with the control group was significant at the level of 0.05, so it can be said that all three methods of functional behavior analysis of ABA, Snozlen and Dosa compared to the control group had a significant effect on increasing attention.

    Methodology

    The approach of the research was qualitative approach and the method used in it was comparative-analytical method. The research population in this study included all valid scientific documents, including books, articles in specialized journals related to media literacy, from which the works related to the subject were selected using purposive sampling method and appropriate to the research objectives of the case. Were analyzed and data were collected by documentary method, Descriptive analysis method was used in data analysis. Based on the research question, a framework for data analysis was considered. Based on this framework, the required data from available resources were selected, organized, and then their similarities and differences were identified and compared and interpreted.

    Findings

    Based on the results of this study, the concerns and views on content, necessities and goals of media literacy in different countries are largely similar and educational planners try to maintain their cultural identity in the use of different media. . The results also showed that media literacy has been considered as one of the most effective monitoring tools in the countries. Also, according to the results of the research, the most important differences between the selected countries and Iran in this regard was that the goal of these countries is to institutionalize the media literacy curriculum in an organized manner and in the form of codified policies and long-term plans, but in Iran. Although this issue has been emphasized in the upstream documents, due to the lack of sufficient infrastructure, lack of culture appropriate to the age of technology and teachers not being familiar with this knowledge, these conditions have not been provided and implementation in schools has been unsuccessful. Several years of implementation have not yet led to a successful indigenous approach and model for implementing this skill in schools.

    Conclusion

    The results showed that the concerns and views on the content, necessities and goals of media literacy in different countries are largely similar and educational planners try to maintain their cultural identity in the use of different media.
