The aim of this study was to predict Grit  based on attachment to God, life expectancy and happiness in retired female educators of Khomeini Shahr city. The research method was correlational type of prediction and the statistical population included all retired female educators in Khomeini Shahr in 2020, whose number was 167 people. Using Morgan table, the sample size was estimated to be 113 people according to the statistical population. Finally, the sample size was reduced to 100 people, including statistical loss. Data collection tools included the Grit Questionnaire's Duckworth (2007), the Attachment to God Beck and McDonald's Questionnaire (2004), the Snyder's Life Hope Questionnaire (1991), and the Argyle, Martin, & Croesland's Oxford Questionnaire (1989) Happiness Questionnaire. Data analysis was performed at two levels of descriptive statistics (mean and standard deviation) and inferential statistics (Pearson correlation coefficient and multiple regression) using spss-22 software. The results showed that attachment to God (β = 0.49), happiness (β = 0.23) and life expectancy (β = 0.42) respectively, were 47/5% able to predict the Grit of retired female educators. The results also showed that Sub-component of attachment to God, relationship with God, trust and attention to God, 34/2% were able to predict Grit And Sub-component of life expectancy, factor thinking, and strategic thinking accounted for 37/9% percent of the ability to predict Grit at the significance level of p≤0.01.

The present study was conducted to design and validate the pattern of formation of spiritual intelligence of female high school students. This research is of applied type and modeling which has been done by field method. The statistical population included 19142 female high school students in Tabriz in the academic year 1398-99. The sample size was determined using Krejcie and Morgan formula and 206 people were selected by cluster random sampling method. The instrument used was a researcher-made questionnaire which was used after confirming the face, content and structure validity and its reliability using Cronbach's alpha method. Cronbach's alpha for the whole questionnaire was equal to 0.928 which indicates a high internal consistency between the questions of the questionnaire. Also, the retest method was used to measure the external reliability of the questionnaire. Pearson correlation coefficient between the two tests (p = 0.001, r = 0.734) indicates the appropriate external reliability for the questionnaire.In this study,3 main components under the headings: context, process and consequences were identified as the main components in the formation of students' spiritual intelligence. In order to analyze the data, descriptive and inferential statistics and structural equation modeling were used using Spss and Amos software.The results showed that the proposed model has a good validity and all the obtained components can be used in designing the final model.

This study was conducted to Explaining the mediating role of professional ethics in the effect of transformational leadership on self-leadership and self-efficacy of female teachers. The research method is descriptive-survey with the approach of structural equations. The statistical population of the study is all female teachers in Mashhad in elementary, first and second secondary schools with the number of 3720, of which based on Cochran's formula, a sample of 348 people was selected by cluster sampling. The tool of data gathering is the transformational leadership questionnaire of Bass & Avillo (2002), professional ethics of Kadozir (2002), researcher-made self-leadership and self-efficacy of teachers of Tschannen-Moran & Woolfolk (2001) that their validity was confirmed with construct validity and their reliability was confirmed by Cronbach's alpha and hybrid reliability. Data were analyzed using SPSS23 and SMART PLS2 software.The results of the research hypotheses showed that the variable of learning organization is a mediating variable between the variables of transformational leadership with self-leadership and self-efficacy. Transformational leadership has a positive and direct effect on learning organization, self-leadership and self-efficacy as well as learning organization has a positive and direct effect on self-leadership, but transformational leadership has not been able to influence self-efficacy. The quality of measurement model was confirmed by cv.com test and the structural model by cv.red test. Finally, the results showed that by using the transformational leadership style and the mediating role of professional ethics, she improved the level of self-leadership and self-efficacy of teachers.

The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of teaching self-regulatory strategies on academic vitality and creativity of procrastinating students. This research was conducted in a quasi-experimental manner with a pre-test-post-test design with a control and follow-up group. The statistical population of the study included all female students of the tenth grade of the middle school in the city of Urmia in the academic year of 2019-2020 in the number of 3295 people. Purposeful method was used for sampling. Therefore, there are 40 eligible volunteer students with a score of less than 81 in the Solomon and Rathblum (1984) Academic Procrastination Questionnaire, less than 36 in the Dehghani-Zadeh and Hossein-Chari Academic Vitality Questionnaire (2012) and a score of less than 120 in Abedi (1993) creativity were identified and then randomly entered into two study groups. Pentrich (1999) self-regulatory strategies training package was implemented for the experimental group. During this period, the control group did not receive any training. Data were analyzed by repeated measures analysis of variance and Bonferroni post hoc test using SPSS software. The results showed that for the academic vitality variable, group effect (P˂0.001 and Eta= 0.687), time effect (P˂0.001 and Eta= 0.816) and group × time interaction (P˂0.001 and Eta= 0.727) was significant. The results also showed that for the creativity variable the effect of group (P˂0.001 and Eta= 0.777), the effect of time (P˂0.001 and Eta= 0.802) and the interaction of group × time (P˂0.001 and Eta= 0.626) was significant. Based on the results of the present study, it can be concluded that self-regulatory strategies can be used to treat procrastination in students and increase their academic vitality and creativity

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of ethnic identity and cultural intelligence on the national identity of young girls in border cities of Ardabil province based on structural equations. In this research, using the theoretical perspective of symbolic interaction and the ethnic theory of Barth and Chankins and the theoretical discussion of Van Dain's cultural intelligence has been used. The research method was correlational survey. The statistical population was 46825 girls aged 18 to 35 years in the border cities of Ardabil province, of which 381 people were selected and studied based on Cochran's formula and by regional Stratified random sampling method proportional to volume (city of residence). Data collection tool was a standard questionnaire and statistical analysis was performed based on structural equation using Spss and LISREL programs. The regression values of the structural equation model indicate that ethnic identity (0.31) percent and cultural intelligence (0.26) percent affect national identity. Accordingly, ethnic identity has the greatest effect, and cultural intelligence has the least effect on national identity. The results of the research are in line with other researches, so with the expansion of ethnic identity and cultural intelligence, a step can be taken to establish national identity in the border cities of the country.

The results showed significant relationship between some demographic characteristics and treatment regime. In this research, compliance with medication, sodium restriction, physician visit were high.  The most of patients had a little knowledge about their illness self-care. Emphasis in self-care methods such as daily weighting, the kinds of self-controlling in order to prevent worsening signs and symptoms of heart failure is particularly important.
