The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the use amount of virtual social networks and the non-syllabus study of students at Payame Noor University in Izeh.

 The research is purposeful and applied in terms of survey method. Out of 1200 students from Payame Noor University of Izeh, 316 students were selected using Krejcie and Morgan's tables. Two questionnaires were used to collect the data of virtual networks and non-syllabic study. For data analysis, descriptive and inferential statistics such as Pearson correlation coefficient, single-sample t-test and independent t-test were used.

The results of this study showed that the correlation coefficient between the amount of social networks usage and the rate of study of non-teaching resources was statistically significant (P <0.01). As a result, with increasing the use of social networks of students, their non- Also, the average use of social networks and the average non-syllabus study in students of Payame Noor University of Izeh is equal to 56.90 and 45.30 respectively, resulting in the use of social networks and the amount of study Non-syllabus among students of Payame Noor University is lower than the normal amount The amount of t calculated for using social networks and non-syllabus study in male and female students was 1.5 and.37 respectively, which shows that there is no significant relationship between these two relationships.

Acceptance of virtual social media has not been overlooked in recent years, so if academics and administrators lose sight of the extent and the positive and negative factors of the use of virtual social networks among their students and society, they will lose a huge amount of money.

The purpose of this study was to determine the information security behavior of users in professional virtual communities based on Islamic Azad University, Kermanshah Branch.

The method of the present study was descriptive-correlational. The statistical population of this study was faculty members of Islamic Azad University of Kermanshah, which was selected data.. Descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation matrix and structural equation test were used to analyze the data using SPSS and Amos software.

The results indicated that the variables "Safeguarding Measure Cost", "Perceived Susceptibility", "Perceived Severity", "Information Security Knowledge Sharing" and "Information Security Experience" had a positive and significant relationship with users’ “Avoidance Behavior”. On the other hand, the variable "Avoidance Motivation" as a mediating dependent variable had a positive and significant relationship with "Avoidance Behavior". Also, the fit of the model showed that the proposed conceptual model was very useful.

The results of the research showed that it is necessary for the planners and trustees of information protection in organizations to provide necessary and continuous training for people to better understand information protection against various threats. Therefore, it is necessary to pay more attention to various factors, including sharing knowledge and experience of people and creating a safe environment for trust between people. On the other hand, awareness and understanding of the types of threats and the nature of each of them will lead to keeping organizations healthy and progressing.

The purpose of this study was to determine the degree of compliance of bibliographic records of geographical materials of the National Archives and Library of the Islamic Republic of Iran with the rules of RDA.

 The present study is applied in terms of purpose and has been done by survey research method and descriptive-analytical approach. The research population included 3946 map records and 139 atlas records. The research sample was selected with 351 map records and 139 atlas records. Data collection tools include a checklist based on Bibco, fields taken from the map and atlas of Iran MARC in the National Library of Iran and is one of the adaptive tables of Iran MARC to RDA.

In the first part of the study, it was found that 25.64% of the fields related to the map and 22.72% of the fields related to the atlas have information and the rest of the fields have no information and content. In the second part of the research, the results showed that 35.77% of the information in the map records and 39.77% in the atlas records, with RDA elements are compatible.

Most of the records fields examined are without information. Block 2 in map records and blocks zero and 1 in atlas records have the most compliance, furthermore block 4 in map and atlas records has the least compliance with the rules and elements of RDA. The main reason for the lack of compliance is that the fields are empty. The geographical material records which currently are available in the National Library are incomplete and have shortcomings for the use and implementation of RDA , therefore these shortcomings must be investigated and supplemented.

The purpose of this study was to find out the obstacles of Thesis writing for postgraduate students from Zanjan University graduate students’ point of view and presenting solutions for solving existing problems.

This study is an applied research which has been carried out through a survey-analytical method. The sample consists of 170 graduate students of Zanjan University who were selected randomly. A researcher-made questionnaire was used to collect data.

The findings indicated that the students had more difficulties in 'collecting and analyzing data."Compilation of research methodology" is in the second position. Respondents have faced the least problem in the compilation, printing and publication of the findings. Students at the Faculty of Agriculture have faced more problems in the selection stage, but in other stages of the dissertation development, students from all faculties were in the same situation. Also, postgraduate students have more problems than Ph.D. students in the stage of "compilation of theoretical foundations and research backgrounds." In the other stages of the research, there was no difference between the master's degree students and the Ph.D. students.

Thesis writing is a process that begins with the selection of the topic and ends with the publication of the findings, and each of the stages has different activities that need to be considered individually and special planning should be done to solve the identified problems. In this reas each, all of these steps has been studied, which professors of research methods and statistics courses and postgraduate students can take advantage of this in formulating operational policies.

The purpose of this study is to explain the views of graduate students of the Faculty of Psychology and Educational Sciences of Allameh Tabataba'i University on the effect of green information literacy on environmental protection.

 The present study is an applied research that was conducted using a descriptive-survey method with a quantitative approach. The statistical population of this study is 910 people, which according to Morgan and Krejcie table, the sample size is 270 people.
