The purpose of this study is to explain the commitment-oriented career counseling model with a focus on the third order change based on the lived experience of employees of dynamic economic organizations. The present study was methodologically qualitative and based on the Grounded Theory. Sampling was performed on the basis of theoretical sampling in a purposeful and accessible manner with regard to the principle of theoretical saturation. The research community has formed the staff of Behyar Sanˈat complex in Isfahan province. Using a semi-structured interview, data from a total of 25 employees of Behyar Sanˈat Complex in Isfahan Province Was collected and after the realization of theoretical saturation, the grounded theory was used to analyze the data. Data analysis in the coding process resulted in the emergence of 4 selective codes (including ontological dynamics, balancing dynamics, extensor dynamics, and amplifying dynamics) with 11 axial codes and 38 open codes associated with each. Then, based on the extracted data, the commitment-based career counseling model was designed and presented, that is including 9 processes. These 9 processes are communicating with the unit of change, measurement and evaluation, demonstrating failed processes, facing resistance, negotiating the deconstruction of different ontologies and comparing their effects, conscious choice, behavioral testing of selection, review and re-evaluation, and correction and consolidation. Career counseling model developed in addition to creating new insights into the commitment component and change-making processes, it can be used to enhance commitment in relevant organizations.

Resilience is an adaptive coping response against stressful factors, the result of which is an increase in the level of people's well-being. The current research was designed with the aim of developing a conceptual model of religious resilience based on Islamic teachings. The method of the current research is qualitative in the way of Grounded Theory. The main source of research was the Holy Quran and Islamic hadiths. The research sample included descriptive and explanatory religious propositions related to the semantic domain of resilience, which were selected purposefully. The research sample was collected through three categories of tools: books including the Holy Quran and authentic hadith books; the software includes Jame al-Tafaseer, Jame al-Ahadith, and the comprehensive library of Shia and Sunni hadiths; and the website includes reliable scientific databases in the field of resilience. After extracting data related to religious resilience from Islamic teachings, in the process of data analysis through coding, 950 "open codes", 53 "concepts", 20 "categories" and 5 "dimensions" were extracted and finally, five dimensions in the form of 1 model, was formulated. The findings of the research showed that the model of resilience is a model of a process that has five dimensions; the situations of resilience, the underlying factors of resilience, the components of resilience, the solutions of resilience, and the consequences of resilience. The validity of the content of the obtained results was checked and confirmed with the criteria of Credibility, transferability, Conformability, and Dependability.

Cultural intelligence is an ability and skill that provides the possibility of understanding cultures and peaceful coexistence and adapting to cultural differences; Cultivating cultural intelligence in students brings self-confidence necessary for successful activity in a wide range of situations. The purpose of this research is to design a model for cultivating cultural intelligence in primary school students. In order to present this model and get the data, the qualitative method of the theory of data request or foundation data was used. The participants in this research were experts in child psychology and counseling, and 19 of them were selected through theoretical sampling to conduct in-depth interviews, and the interviews continued until theoretical saturation was reached. Validity of findings was checked by matching method by members and conducting test interviews. To analyze the qualitative data, open, axial and selective coding was used. The results show that 590 primary conceptual propositions with 52 sub-categories and 18 main categories in the form of 6 dimensions of the paradigm model include: causal factors (4 categories), main phenomenon (cultivation of cultural intelligence), strategy (4 categories), background conditions (4 categories) , environmental conditions (4 categories) and consequences (2 categories) were identified. The integration of categories based on the existing relationships between them, around the development of cultural intelligence, forms a paradigm model that shows the pattern of cultural intelligence in primary school students.

The current research was conducted with the aim of investigating the relationship between global identity, national identity and psychological capitals with life satisfaction along with investigating the moderating role of gender in students. The analysis method in this study was descriptive and correlational. The statistical population of this research included all the undergraduate students of Tehran University, 209 people (110 boys and 99 girls) were included in the study using available sampling method. To collect data, satisfaction with life questionnaires (SWLS), global identity, national identity and psychological capitals (PCQ) were used. Pearson correlation and multiple regression were used for data analysis and data analysis was done using R software. The results showed that psychological capital (p<05/00) and national identity (p<05/00) are significant in predicting life satisfaction, but global identity in The presence of other two parameters did not play a significant role. On the other hand, the moderating role of gender in the relationship between predictor variables and life satisfaction was not significant; This means that gender did not affect the direction and relationship between research variables. Therefore, considering the importance of life satisfaction and the role of various factors in creating and maintaining it, it is better to investigate the relationship of variables such as various dimensions of identity and related variables in the field of positive psychology such as psychological capital with life satisfaction in the future.

The aim of the present study was to study the factor structure, invariance and adaptability of The Sense of Relational Entitlement Scale-Revised (SRE-R) in Iranian society. This research was practical based on the purpose and correlational in terms of data analysis. The statistical population of this study included all married teachers in Zanjan province in 2022 that using the convenience sampling method provided the data of this research by completing The Sense of Relational Entitlement-Revised measure and some other scales. The findings of this study indicated a two-factor structure in this scale. The results showed that most of the items, except for two items, had fit with the graded response model and the items of the inflated sense of entitlement were more homogeneous than the restricted sense of entitlement items. The findings demonstrated the appropriate reliability of this scale. The fit indices were optimized in the whole sample and subgroups. The AVE index was not very proper in both factors, especially in the restricted sense of entitlement. The calculation of discriminant validity with different methods indicated its establishment at the level of the both factors. Gender invariance was confirmed for this measure. According to the correlation coefficients between this construct and other studied variables, the convergent and divergent validity of this scale was confirmed too. Given to the findings of the present study, it can be said that The Sense of Relational Entitlement-Revised has optimal psychometric properties for use in the future researches.

Life skills training has become an integral part of the agendas of global health organizations and many national programs, including Iran, to empower individuals to lead better lives by acquiring age-appropriate skills. The content of such training should be culturally, religiously, and contextually relevant, aligning with the needs, components, and elements of our culture and religion. This article, employing a critical review methodology, examines the content of life skills training provided by the Ministry of Health and Medical Education from the perspective of Islamic-Iranian culture. This package consists of twelve books, serving as a reference and guide in healthcare centers. The evaluation is based on three key criteria: how well the content aligns with credible, up-to-date, and practical research, Islamic theories, and Iranian cultures. In total, nineteen critical criticisms are identified under these criteria. The findings reveal significant shortcomings in the life skills training package, including insufficient attention to prioritizing skills based on local needs, outdated and extensive content, and a disregard for gender-specific requirements. Moreover, the role of religion in various aspects, such as achieving tranquility, stress, self-management, self-control, problem solving, and resolving marital conflicts, has been overlooked. Additionally, the package has paid minimal attention to the needs and issues faced by Iranian families, indigenous and ethnic variations, sub-cultures, the Persian language, proverbs, and other national symbols. In conclusion, it is recommended that new content be developed by incorporating the latest findings from global psychology, contemporary domestic research, and Islamic theories while considering the concerns of the Iranian population.

Diabetes is prevalent amongst the most widespread diseases in the whole countries so that world health organization (WHO) calls it silent epidemic. Students with diabetes encounter challenges in the medical, psychosocial, communication and academic domains. Therefore, counselors’ knowledge, attitudes, and awareness regarding students with diabetes is important. The purpose of this present was to identify the information needs of school counselors for diabetic students. This study employed a qualitative method (generic). The study population was composed of diabetic students and their parents and counselors of schools in Khuzestan province.12 participants were selected using the purposive sampling method and in-depth interviews were conducted until data saturation. The interviews were recorded and transcribed and then analyzed using a conventional content analysis. The information needs of school consultants for diabetic students were classified into 5 themes (confidentiality as a barrier; inadequate school; physical, psychological and communication changes; encountering of family and diabetes; and counseling services) and 30 sub-themes. The findings suggest that diabetic students and their families encounter various difficulties related to diabetes. School counselors need to obtain different types of information about the needs of diabetic students and provide them and the school staff with appropriate support. They may also need specific skills in caring for students with diabetes.

The classic works of Islamic mysticism, as one of the significant resources of today's Muslims' cultural climate, are rich with dream narratives crafted with the intention of promoting mystical views. Paying attention to how individuals react to dreams in these works might assist to explain how people react to dreams psychologically. We identified 148 narrations connected to post-dream reactions from 28 mystical works from the 4th to 9th lunar centuries for this purpose and classified and analyzed them using the thematic analysis approach. Three topics emerged from this research: 1) affective-physical reactions; 2) cognitive reactions; and 3) behavioral reactions. We propose a three-stage model of post-dream reactions based on the sequence seen in these three categories of reactions and argue that these three phases are theoretically generalizable to all dream reactions. The model and each of the suggested themes were then addressed. Future study might use survey or experimental approaches to validate this model and add more specifics to it.

In recent years this has faced significant challenges and harm. The purpose of this research was to investigate and identify the harms of the process of choosing a major in university. This study was conducted in a qualitative way using the Grounded Theory method. 24 male and female students of Tabriz city universities that entered the 2021-2022 academic year using voluntary sampling and semi-structured interviews were assessed to saturation based on the inclusion criteria. Data were recorded, coded, and categorized into secondary codes, categories, and classes. Analysis of participants' experiences led to the identification of 164 secondary codes, 20 sub-categories, and 3 main categories including Individual-psychological issues, social-educational problems, and structural-management defects. From an educational point of view, understanding the disadvantages of the process of choosing a field of study to enter the university can be effective in providing the necessary framework for developing a suitable model for higher education candidates, as well as balanced distribution of candidates in different fields of study and prevention of potential harms.

"love" and "kindness" are religious concepts that are mentioned in Islamic sources in the relationship between spouses. The purpose of this research is to compile the conceptual model of "love" and "kindness" in the relationship between spouses based on Islamic sources. In order to obtain the structural components, factors and effects of these two concepts in Islamic sources, the knowledge of linguistic semantics and the method of content analysis and tools of Ijtihad in religious texts are used and the validity of the content of conceptual components is examined by experts. The findings of the research show that "love" and "kindness" are used in the literal sense in religious literature about relationships between spouses. So conceptual model of "love" in spouses' relationships consists of two structural components: "affection" and "expectation" and eighteen factors and eighteen effects, and the conceptual model of "kindness" consists of three structural components: "awareness of need", "compassion", "niceness" and five factors and nine effects is formed and other concepts around these two express their territory, functions, effective factors or orientations related. The conclusion is that the components and the relevance between themselves and between "love" and " kindness" were explained in the conceptual model and from the comparison of some concepts of the relationship between spouses in psychology, it was found that although there is no equivalent for these two concepts in psychology that can fully explain all their components but some psychological concepts are somehow related to the components of these two concepts.
