The present study was conducted with the aim of investigating the risk of MHRM algorithm in multi-dimensional models of item-response theory in binary data, taking into account different test dimensions and lengths. The research method used was a real experiment using a multi-group post-test design. The studied sample was created based on simulation studies under different conditions of independent variables in 27 modes with 100 repetitions for each. The model used was the two-parameter multidimensional model of logistics and the investigated parameters were the slope and difficulty of the items. In order to check the risk of each of the parameters in different experimental conditions, the average squared error index was used. R statistical software packages mirt, interactions, car and psych were used for data generation and analysis. The results of the research showed that the MHRM algorithm has less risk compared to the EM and MCEM algorithms. This issue was especially evident under the conditions of high dimensional data (5 dimensions) and short test length (15 questions). Also, the results of the research showed that when the dimensions of the test increase and the length of the test decreases, the risk of parameter estimation increases significantly. As a result, it can be said that the application of the MHRM algorithm in data with a high number of dimensions and a short test length is necessary, and researchers are advised to use it in the analysis of data with a complex structure such as a high number of dimensions

The present article was done with the aim to investigate the effectiveness of cognitive-behavioral play therapy on attention and concentration and social adjustment of students with intellectual disability. The research method was quasi-experimental with a pretest and posttest design plus control group. The statistical society consisted of male students with intellectual disability in second grade of elementary exceptional schools during 2021-2022; among them 30 students were selected and categorized in experimental group (15) and control group (15). Wechsler (4th edition) scale used to evaluate students` attention and concentration of active memory and Sinha and Singe (2002) for social adjustment. Prior to the study, Pre-test of attention and concentration and social adjustment was implemented in both groups. The experimental group received cognitive-behavioral play through the training package in 12 sessions, but the control group did not receive any intervention. After the Intervention in the post-test stage, both of the groups answered to the same questionnaire of pre-test stage. The research data was analyzed with one way and Multivariate Covariance Analysis. The cognitive-behavioral play had a positive effect on the increase of students’ attention and concentration and social adjustment and their subscales (P<0.05). According to the effectiveness of the cognitive-behavioral play, it was suggested to apply periodically the methods of cognitive-behavioral play training with the aim to increase intellectually disabled students` attention and concentration and social adjustment.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of Brian Tracy's time management training on reducing dependence on cyberspace and improving the academic adjustment of Farhangian University students during the Corona period. The research design was quasi-experimental pre-test-post-test with a control group. The statistical population was all students of Farhangian University of Khajeh Nasir in Kerman in the academic year 2022. 40 people were selected as the sample by targeted sampling method and randomly assigned to an experimental group (20 people) and a control group (20 people). The intervention group underwent 90 minutes of Brian Tracy time management training in 8 sessions once a week. However, no intervention was performed on the control group during this period. The cyberspace dependency questionnaire of Khajeh Ahmadi et al. And the Baker and Cyriac educational adjustment questionnaire were administered to them. The reliability level of Cronbach's alpha method was reported as 0.90 in the virtual space dependence questionnaire and 0.80 in the academic adjustment questionnaire, and the validity of both questionnaires was confirmed. In order to describe the data, central indexes of mean and standard deviation and multivariate covariance analysis test were used using SPSS version 23 software. The results of analysis of covariance showed that Brian Tracy's time management training reduced dependence on cyberspace and improved academic adjustment. According to the results of the present study, Brian Tracy's time management training was effective in reducing dependence on cyberspace and improving academic adjustment. Therefore, this intervention can be used to reduce the problems of Farhangian University students during the Corona.

The aim of the current research was to predict academic satisfaction based on psychological needs with the mediating role of Class-Related Emotion and early maladaptive schemas. In this correlational description, with a random cluster method, 741 students aged 13 to 14 years old in 15th district of Tehran in 1400 were selected as a sample and were asked to answer the basic psychological needs questionnaire of Desi (2000), the Dusseldorf Child Schema Picture Questionnaire (DISC) Luez, Mayer and Petroski (2018), the Class-Related Emotion Scales, derived from the academic emotions questionnaire (AEQ) Pekrun et al (2005) and the academic satisfaction subscale, derived from the multi-dimensional life satisfaction (Höbner, 2001). The data were analyzed using partial least squares (PLS) software. The results showed that psychological needs variable with the mediation of positive and negative academic emotions and initial incompatible plans have a significant effect in explaining academic satisfaction and the overall effect of this change on academic satisfaction is also significant. Therefore, satisfying basic psychological needs can increase positive Class-Related Emotion, decrease negative Class-Related Emotion, and decrease initial incompatible schema and so it can increase academic satisfaction. Based on the results, educational psychologists can simultaneously play an important role in Class-Related Emotion and early maladaptive schemas and improve academic satisfaction by considering the basic psychological needs, and thus they can eliminate the factors that cause them to be discouraged with their lessons and education.

The main aim of the present study was to compare the effectiveness of teaching methods based on portfolio and the traditional (lecture) method on students' learning of psychological teachings in Quran and Hadith lesion. The present study was conducted using a quasi-experimental method and used a pre-test and post-test design with non-randomized groups. The research community consisted of all psychology students in Tehran who were studying in the academic year of 2018-2019. A number of 82 (41 students in each class) students learned the same educational content in the lesions of ​​psychological teachings in Quran and Hadith in two teaching classes based on portfolio and lecture method. Before the beginning of the training and after the end of the last session, the same researcher-made test was administered to both groups and the data were analysed using one-way covariance test (using SPSS20). The results showed that there is a significant difference between students' learning. Considering the higher average of students trained in the portfolio-based teaching method, it can be claimed that the portfolio-based method helps to improving students' performance more than the lecture teaching method and can be used as an effective method in teaching psychological lessons in Quran and Hadith

Given the multidimensional nature of the impulsivity construct and various possible relationships of these dimensions with emotional distresses and real-life performance, the present study aimed to analyze the latent profile of the impulsivity traits and its relationship with depression, anxiety, stress, regret, and academic performance of students. In a cross-sectional research, 400 students were selected from the universities of Kermanshah city by convenient sampling method, and evaluated using the short form of UPPS-P impulsive behavior scale, depression, anxiety, and stress scale and the regret based decision making questionnaire. Data were analyzed based on latent profile analysis, chi-square test and variance analysis using SPSS and Mplus software. Latent profile analysis of the impulsivity traits led to the extraction of three groups with different profiles (low impulsive, low purposefulness/conscientiousness and high urgency). Membership in each group was associated with different scores in depression (F=17.37, P<0.01), anxiety (F=33.02, P<0.01), stress (F=30.02, P<0.01), regret (F=37.83, P<0.01) and academic performance (F=9.92, P<0.01). Be placed in each impulsivity profile is associated with different levels of emotional distress and academic performance, and this grouping can be used to provide tailored interventions to help each group.
