Iron deficiency anemia is one of the most common types of anemia in the world, especially in developing countries. This study was conducted to determine the effect of blended educational package designed on the prevention of iron deficiency anemia in adolescent girls.

quasi-experimental research (intervention-control) was done. A researcher-made questionnaire which was validated by content validity method and its reliability was test-retested. The statistical population of the study: 120 female high school students in Kermanshah in the 2019-20 academic year were randomly divided into two groups of intervention and control. The designed blended educational package containing conversational and lecture sessions (oral), written (pamphlet) and sending virtual messages through Soroush messenger was prepared for the age group of 14-19 years. The research instruments included a demographic information questionnaire and iron deficiency anemia questionnaire Data with SPSS version 19 and descriptive statistics; Mean and standard deviation and inferential statistics; Leven test, Kolmogorov-Smirnov test and analysis of covariance and ANOVA were analyzed.

Mean and standard deviation of knowledge before and after training were 27.89 ± 4.39 and after the intervention were 30.19± 3.9, respectively, which was statistically significant (p = 0.011.) Mean and standard deviation for attitude before and after training 40.17 8 8.68 and after the intervention 58.97 ± 7.97 that this difference was statistically significant (p = 0.009) Means & SD of performance before and after training to the order was 24.3±8. 5.1 and after the intervention was 30.72 ± 3.11 which was statistically significant (p = 0.003). The mean of knowledge, attitude and practice of the two groups before training were not significantly different, but after the intervention, the mean score of knowledge (p = 0.011), attitude (p = 0.009) and performance (p = 0.003) of the intervention group compared to the control group found a significant difference.

The results indicate the effect of blended educational package on knowledge, attitude and short-term performance of female students in the field of prevention of iron deficiency anemia.

With the appearance of social changes and traditional transformations, family care for the elderly has decreased, which has special physical, psychological, social, and economic consequences for this generation. This study aimed to determine the relationship between "intergenerational relationships" and "social support" on "self-care ability" in the elderly with chronic disease.

This analytical study was conducted in 2020 in the educational and medical centers of Golestan University of Medical Sciences. Using the available sampling method, 360 elderly patients with chronic disease were included in the study. Data were collected using questionnaires of "intergenerational relationships, social support, self-care". Wilcoxon, linear regression, and linear equation analysis were used to analyze the data using SPSS software version 21 and at a significance level of 0.05.

The mean and standard deviation of intergenerational relationships (40.7± 4.6) were somewhat good, and social support (85.02±11.31) and self-care (70.53 ± 8.84) was high. There was a positive and significant relationship between social support and intergenerational relationships (β=0.24, P<0.001), but the relationship between intergenerational relationships and self-care (β=0.18, P <0.001) and social support with self-care (r = -0.276, P <0.001) was inverse and significant.

With the increase of intergenerational relations, the dimensions of social support in the elderly with chronic diseases increased. Older people with stronger social support and intergenerational relationships were less able to take care of themselves. It seems that the studied elderly left their responsibility of care to the family and therefore paid less attention to themselves.

The importance of education in the development of nursing as a profession and as a science has been mentioned a lot. To be as successful as possible in the field of nursing expertise in Iran and to identify the strengths and weaknesses of its curriculum, it is necessary to conduct comparative studies and exploit the experiences and strategies in successful universities. The present study aimed to compare the Iranian undergraduate nursing curriculum with British Columbia University (UBC) in Canada.

The present study is a descriptive-comparative study that was conducted in 2020 by Beredy’s method in four stages of description, interpretation, juxtaposition, and comparison; compares the content, and details of the undergraduate nursing curriculum in Iran and the University of British Columbia in Canada.

The findings showed that at UBC, people interested in nursing enter the university based on ability and without exams, and after graduation can work if they obtain RN or LPN degrees, while in Iran Students enter the university after passing the national exam and after graduation, they work in hospitals to pass the nursing plan. At UBC, special attention has been paid to nursing research in both quantitative and qualitative approaches, as well as geriatrics and communication therapy, and students are taught nursing skills over several courses before entering the clinic. But in Iran, students enter a hospital for an internship after passing one nursing skills training course in a skills laboratory.

The results showed that the main difference between Iran and the University of British Columbia in Canada in undergraduate nursing; is in terms of how to admit a student and also to obtain the necessary conditions for employment in the nursing profession. Despite the many similarities, there are also differences in goals, mission, vision, and curriculum; which can be used in the planning of Iranian nursing undergraduate courses. Considering that the undergraduate nursing program in Iran was reviewed in 2014, descriptive studies on the acquired capabilities and the content of the program can help to improve it by eliminating possible weaknesses.

Self-evaluation and peer as formative evaluation have an effect in increase students' learning. To introduce a more effective method, this study was done to Purpose comparison of two formative evaluation methods on satisfaction and learning of clinical skills in nursing students.

In this interventional study to crossover design, all one semester of bachelor nursing students of hamadan nursing and midwifery school entered the study to perform two suction and dressing procedures. Standard checklists were used to evaluate each procedure. Using the checklists, Simultaneous with the instructor evaluation, all 49 students by lottery were don one procedure by self- evaluation and the next procedure to a peer evaluation. Two weeks later, each student was reassessed by the instructor during the procedure. The final score was considered as the learning criterion. Students' satisfaction with evaluation methods was assessed using a researcher-made questionnaire. Data were analyzed by SPSS-16 with a significance level of 0.05.

In the suction procedure, there was no difference between the final scores of the students in the two evaluation methods. In the dressing process, peer evaluation improves students' learning than the self-evaluation method (p<0.01). Peer evaluation led to higher satisfaction of students in the communication dimension and anxiety reduction (p <0.05).

Considering students 'satisfaction of peer evaluation and its positive impact on students' learning of clinical skills, it is recommended to use this method in teaching students to the educational authorities.

Students are considered as the main human resources of any society and attention to their health and health promotion is an investment for the future.In the present study, the aim was to make a comparative comparison of the primary school health educations in Iran, South Korea and Japan.

This research is applied in purpose and descriptive-analytical method based on the method of comparative studies in education according to the George Bradychr('39')s view. According to this, the collected data were analyzed in four stages including descriptive, interpretation, adjacency and comparison. To collect research data, an extensive search including English and Persian studies was conducted from 2005 to 2020 using valid databases and citations such as PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, Google Scholar, WHO and Science Direct.Sampling was done selectively and primary health education in Iran, Japan and South Korea were reviewed and compared. According to the basic conceptual model, primary school health education was studied in the components of physical, mental and social health education.

In terms of mental health, bicultural acceptance, family relationships, parenting style; In terms of physical health, organized sports participation, active behaviors in school, adhere to diet, balance and agility, flexibility, muscle strength, endurance; in the social dimension, security, cohesion, empowerment and social support are among the different types of health education between Iran and the other two countries.

In Iran, less attention has been paid to the components of primary school health education in all three dimensions of social, physical and mental health and needs to replace the different components mentioned in the research findings in the primary school health education system and the school health educators’program.

Evidence has shown that shy people have a weaker self-concept than normal people, which makes it necessary to provide psychological interventions to this group of people. This study aimed tocompare the effectiveness of positive thinking skills training and acceptance/commitment therapy on the acceptance/commitment of shy girl students.

The statistical population of this experimental research included all female high school students in Tabriz in the academic year 2020-2021, that 45 students who received the diagnosis of shyness in accordance with the cutoff score in the Revised Cheek and Buss Shyness Scale were selected by multi-stage cluster and targeted sampling and they were randomly assigned to two experimental groups and one control group (15 people in each group). All three groups completed the Beck (1990) Self- concept Questionnaire and after completing eight sessions of positive thinking skills training (two sessions a week for 4 weeks) and eight sessions of acceptance/commitment therapy (two sessions a week for 4 weeks) in the experimental groups, the mentioned questionnaire was completed in the groups. The results were analyzed using univariate analysis of covariance.

Both positive thinking skills training and acceptance and commitment therapy have a significant effect on the self-concept of shy female students (p<0.001); while acceptance/commitment therapy to positive thinking skills has a greater effect on increasing self-concept of shy female students (p<0.001).

Due to the superiority of the effectiveness of acceptance/commitment therapy to improving self-concept of shy female students, is recommended the use of this method and the importance of holding training courses on this approach should be informed to students' parents.
