The anti-bullying program in experimental school were taught for each of the groups separately and in the last stage post-test were conducted in both schools. Data analyzed with analysis of covariance using SPSS software. The results showed the effectiveness of anti-bullying program in reducing three verbal, physical and emotional dimension of victimization in experimental school(P

Different factors such as motivation and self-esteem can affect the students learning activity. Therefore, educational research has shown that motivation is one of the essential factors for the improvement of student performances. Using a person-oriented approach, the present study aimed to determine the motivational profiles (clusters) of students and to compare their academic achievement and academic satisfaction considering these profiles. This study was conducted with a comparative-descriptive method. The participants were 237 middle school students eighth and ninth grade who completed the Achievement Goal Questionnaire and Academic Satisfaction Questionnaire. The criterion for academic achievement was students’ total average in the Last year. The methods of cluster analysis and MANOVA were used for data analysis using SPSS software. Cluster analysis revealed four motivational profiles for the students: 12/7% of the subjects were placed in the without motivation cluster, 35/2% were placed in the triple motivation cluster, 19/6% were placed in the mastery goal orientation- performance goal orientation, and 38% were placed in multiple motivation cluster. The academic achievement and academic satisfaction of without motivation cluster was lower than the other clusters (p

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of emotional self-control training in reducing physical aggression of Payame Noor University Students in Bukan, West Azerbaijan. To this end, 40 participants were randomly selected as the sample of the study. The current study followed a quasi-experimental design involving pre-test and post-test with control group. The instrument of the study was Aggression Questionnaire (William, 1996). The participants were randomly divided into an experimental group and a control group, each consisting of 20. The experimental group received 10 emotional self-control training sessions (each 60 min) during 5 consecutive weeks, while the control group did not. Data analysis with descriptive statistics and inferential statistics was performed using SPSS software. The results of Analysis of Covariance Test (p

The aim of this study was to evaluate and prioritize the different dimension of e-learning and criteria associated with them, using the analytic hierarchy process. To achieve this goal, library method and a description research method was used. The statistical population of the study consisted of all references related to models, frameworks, standards related to the quality of web-based education and internal and external experiences. In addition, all scholars, experts, and specialists in e-learning centers and virtual universities in the country including the study population and members of the sample with respect to the objectives and research questions were selected of them purposefully. The tools data collection were questionnaire-made that its validity and reliability have been confirmed. Factors affecting the quality of education in electronic learning environments of the research literature identified and techniques AHP was used to prioritize them.
Analysis of data using software export Choice showed that the share of institutional and managerial factors pedagogical and instructional design; technological factors; factors providing education and factors associated with support services in the quality of education in E-learning environments, respectively 26%; 24%; 20%; 18% and 12% were evaluated.

The goal of this research is to identify the statistical errors in the articles published in the field of Educational Sciences. For this purpose, by using a two-stage clustering sampling method, 92 articles were selected out of 12 issues of the journals in Educational Sciences studied. The research design was based on document analysis and the method for analyzing the data was according to multiple comparisons by the use of error bars. The results showed that 39 articles out of 92 ones had at least one statistical error, and among this article, there were 49 common error including, error types listed based on frequency of occurrence: "Fitting the regression model without examining the assumptions of the residuals, Use of independent T-test without examining the homogeneity of variances (levene's test), false fitting of the structural equations model, Biased sampling method, Using the analysis of variance instead of T-test, Using Friedman's nonparametric test without considering the distribution of data, Mismatch results of the statistical analysis, Using the independent T-test instead of paired one, Interpreting the results of Levene's test instead of the results of T-test, Performing the follow-up test without performing the analysis of variance, and finally Analysis of statistical significance just based on the results of descriptive statistics". The results also showed that the highest frequency of errors is related to the extracted articles out of master's theses, organizational affliction related to Islamic Azad University, academic degree of the instructor, non-specialists in Educational Sciences, journals with a history of publication below 20 years and article with 3 authors.

Flow occurs when individuals are engaged in controllable but challenging activities and tasks which Requires considerable skill and associates with intrinsic motivation (Csikszentmihalyi, 1990). The current study aims to consider psychometric features (reliability and validity) of Martin & Jackson’s flow short scale (2008) in academic field. Research plan is descriptive cross -sectional and 291 students of Farhangian University Southern Khorasan branch participated voluntarily in this study. Persian version was presented via translation and back translation. Reliability of scale and construct validity were evaluated by internal consistency, split-have’s method and correlation with academic motivation scale (intrinsic motivation and a motivation Dimension), respectively. Total internal consistency coefficient of scale according to Cronbach’s coefficient alpha was 0.85 and Gutman coefficient for assessing reliability was obtained 0.82. Positive correlation of this scale with internal motivation (0.83) is representative of convergent validity and its correlation with a motivation (-0.85) is demonstrator of divergent validity of scale. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) confirms single- factor structure. Results obtained from present study showed that Persian version of flow scale in academic field enjoys good validity and reliability, foresaid scale can be used to consider students’ academic flow in teaching – learning situations.
