Today, with the development of the nursing process, reporting was expanded as a framework of and requirements and the need to provide and evaluated a nursing care and treatment. Nursing reports in record indicate medical treatment, nursing care and reactions of patient to its care. Illegible or incomplete records may block the nursing care and make difficult the detection of important changes in the patient health condition and behavior. However; the purpose of this study was to assess the effects of teacher-centered teaching and problem-based learning methods in incidence of nursing documentation errors in hospitals of Torbat Heydariyeh.This was a quasi-experimental study which was conducted among nurses in Torbat Heydariyeh hospitals during 2014. 93 nurses were classified into 3 groups (n=31), problem-based learning for the first group, teacher training for the second group, and the third group was the control group. Educational content for each group was presented by an instructor in the six 45-minute sessions for six consecutive days. Data collection tool was a questionnaire whose content validity (0.76) was confirmed by the researchers and reliability coefficient factor (0.84) was calculated using Cronbach alpha coefficient formula. The questionnaire was completed by nurses before and 2 months after training. Data were analyzed by SPSS software and Friedman, one-way ANOVA, Kruskal-Wallis, Mann-Whitney and independent and dependent t-test, Wilcoxon, Pearson and Spearman correlation and chi-square tests. The teacher-centered teaching method, the average error before and after treatment showed a significant statistical difference (P= 0.000), so, the average error was reduced after the intervention in nurses. Also, in problem based learning, the training of nurses after the intervention had a positive effect and it reduced the average error (P= 0.000). But, in the control group there was not a significant difference. Also satisfaction of nurses in problem based learning was more than teacher-centered teaching.Based on the results of this study, teacher-centered teaching and problem-based learning methods had a positive effect in both groups, but given the level of satisfaction and interest of nurses, the problem-based learning proposed. This method is more recommended especially, for service training courses and teaching to deal with other types

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of motivational beliefs and self-regulation strategies on information behavior among Ph.D. students at Ahvaz Jundishapur University of Medical Sciences (AJUMS). In this study, 184 students were surveyed that ultimately 125 participations were examined. The applied research was causal-comparative in nature andsurvey in terms of data collection; and required data were collected through two standardized questionnaires; Motivational Strategies for Learning and a researcher-made questionnaire about Information Behavior. After confirming the validity by experts, reliability of both questionnaires was determined by Cronbach's alpha, respectively, 0.79 and vary from 0.85. Data analysis consequently was performed on structural equation modeling based on partial least squares by using the statistical software SPSS21& PLS. The results showed that proposed model had an acceptable adjustment to the data; as well as motivational beliefs components and self-regulation strategies have affected information behavior among Ph.D. students. Considering the results, a better understanding of the psychological functions affecting information behavior among Ph.D. students is crucially important in developing the educational programs related to information-seeking skills, moreover, in offering solutionsto improve information services and to develop information systems; since the more effective transfer of information to these students can result in much improvement of their academic performance, thereby providing medical services to the community.
