Considering the value and status of the family institution, special attention should be paid to the problems of women affected by marital infidelity. The present study was conducted with the aim of determining the effectiveness of solution-focused brief couple therapy (SFBCT) on forgiveness and sexual intimacy of women affected by marital infidelity.

This study was semi-experimental with a pretest-posttest & follow-up control group design. The statistical population consisted of women affected by marital infidelity in Tabriz City in 2023. In total, 30 people were selected by the purposeful sampling method and randomly divided into two groups (15 people in each group). Members of experimental group received their treatment in 6 sessions of 1.5 hours; however, the control group did not receive any treatment. The measurement tools were Rye et al's forgiveness and Bagaroozi's sexual intimacy questionnaires. Data analysis were done by repeated measures analysis of variance test.

SFBCT increased forgiveness and sexual intimacy of women affected by marital infidelity in the post-test, compared to the control group (P<0.001). The effect of SFBCT on forgiveness and sexual intimacy was lasting in the follow-up phase (P<0.001).

It seems that solution-focused brief couple therapy can increase the forgiveness and sexual intimacy of women affected by marital infidelity; so it can probably be a useful therapeutic strategy to improve the marital relationship of women affected by marital infidelity.

In today's era, the traditional learning that has surrounded our educational system for many years no longer meets the needs of students and teachers. From this point of view, learning theories can help meet the needs of students and teachers. Among these theories that are used to develop self-motivated, self-regulated, and self-controlled learners is the generative learning theory (GLT) introduced by Wittrock (1974). In recent decades, the attention of many education experts has been focused on the study of the factors affecting the learning of mathematics lessons. Extensive research has been done in this field, which shows that one of the main reasons for the problems of learning and progress in mathematics is that students often rely on repetition and habit and use inappropriate and inadequate methods and superficial reasoning for mathematical concepts. According to TIMSS (1999), learners in classes that emphasised reasoning and problem-solving methods had better results in learning different mathematical concepts than in other classes. Mathematical reasoning, which means thinking according to reason and proof, is the same as reaching solutions through mathematical concepts. Examining the results of TIMSS (2007, 2011) indicates that the average value of Iranian students' math scores in the fourth and eighth grades in the area of mathematical reasoning is significantly lower than the international average value. In educational systems, academic performance is the academic standing of students, which is the grade of different academic courses measured by standardised tests. According to Pham and Taylor (1999), academic performance consists of: self-efficacy, emotional impact, planning, lack of outcome control, and motivation.This research is a semi-experimental type with a pre-test-post-test design with a control group. The statistical population of this research included eighth grade female students in Gilanegreb city (Kermanshah province) in the academic year 2022-2023. In order to eliminate the interfering effect, two classes from two different schools, which were taught by the same math teacher, were selected by the available sampling method and completely randomly divided into two groups, namely the experimental group (30 people) and the control group (30 people).Before starting the training, both study groups were subjected to a pre-test, and they were asked to answer the desired questions in addition to cooperating. The experimental group was subjected to the intervention of an educational package based on generative learning theory. The teaching method used to teach this educational package was the cooperative teaching method, which tried to involve the learners in the learning process in a practical way so that learning could be done at a higher level. The experimental group was trained with the generative learning method during eight sessions lasting 40 minutes. During these sessions, the control group was not given any kind of training based on generative learning, but the usual teaching method was used for them. After the completion of the training course, a post-test was conducted between the experimental group and the control group, and then the collected raw data were analysed by covariance analysis and SPSS-26 software. Research tools included the Rezaei Mathematical Reasoning Questionnaire, Pham and Taylor's Academic Performance Questionnaire, and an educational program based on generative learning theory. The findings of the research were divided into two descriptive and inferential parts, and in the descriptive part, the average of mathematical reasoning in the experimental group increased in the post-test position compared to the pre-test. Also, the average variable of academic performance and its components (self-efficacy, planning, and motivation) increased in the post-test position compared to the pre-test, while the components of emotional effects and lack of control in the experimental group were reduced in the post-test situation compared to the pre-test. In examining the first hypothesis, after confirming the assumptions of the covariance analysis in the inferential part of the findings, the results of the univariate covariance analysis showed that the effect of the independent variable (training program based on generative learning theory) on the dependent variable of mathematical reasoning is significant in improving mathematical reasoning in the post-test stage. According to the effect size prepared from Cohen's D formula for the variable of mathematical reasoning (0.639), it is clear that the training program based on generative learning theory is able to determine a significant percentage of changes in mathematical reasoning. Multivariate covariance analysis was used to investigate the second hypothesis.After ensuring the normality of the data distribution, the assumption of homogeneity of the data, and the homogeneity of the regression slope, the significant level of the Hotelling effect (F = 14.729, P = 0.000) confirms that there is a significant difference between the experimental and control groups in terms of post-test academic performance compared to pre-test control. The effect coefficient shows that the difference between the two groups is 0.450, related to the generative education program intervention. Also, the results of multivariate covariance analysis show that the education program based on generative learning theory is able to determine some of the changes in the components of academic performance. The effect size obtained from Cohen's D formula for the self-efficacy component was 0.208, the emotional impact component was 0.012, the planning component was 0.067, the lack of control component was 0.014, and the motivation component was 0.402; therefore, the training program based on the generative learning theory has had a moderate effect on the components of emotional impact and lack of control. The results of this research indicate the confirmation of the first hypothesis and the effect of the educational program based on generative learning theory on students' mathematical reasoning. Also, the obtained results show that the reproductive education program is able to determine a significant percentage of changes in mathematical reasoning. In addition, the examination of the results of the analysis of the second hypothesis showed that there is a significant difference between the experimental group and the control group in the number of academic performance components. The results of the examination of the means showed that the mean of the experimental group in the components of academic performance (self-efficacy, planning, and motivation) in the post-test position compared to the pre-test has increased, and the mean in the components of emotional effects and lack of control in the experimental group has decreased in the post-test position compared to the pre-test. Therefore, it can be said that an educational program based on generative learning theory has a significant effect on academic performance and its components.

This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) on sleep quality and psychological health in menopausal women. The research method was a semi-experimental design with pre-test, post-test, and follow-up phases with a control group. The statistical population of the study included all menopausal women referred to health centers in Tabriz in 2023. A total of 30 women were selected through convenient sampling and randomly assigned into two groups (each consisting of 15 participants). The experimental group received ACT in eight 1.5-hour sessions, while the control group received no treatment. Both groups completed the 19-question Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and 28-item Goldberg's general health questionnaires before, after, and 3 months after the intervention. Data were analyzed using repeated measures analysis of variance & Bonferroni post hoc test. The results indicated that ACT significantly improved sleep quality and psychological health in the post-test phase compared to the control group. These improvements were maintained at the follow-up stage. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy may effectively improve the sleep quality and psychological health of menopausal women.

The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) on the aggression and pain catastrophizing in girls with premenstrual dysphoric syndrome.

This study was semi-experimental with a pretest-posttest and follow-up with a control group design. The statistical population was made up of female high school students suffering from premenstrual dysphoric symptoms in Tabriz city in 2023. In total, 30 people were selected by purposive sampling method, and randomly divided into two groups (15 people each). Members of the experimental group received their treatment in eight sessions of 1.5 hours; however, the control group did not receive any treatment. Both groups answered the 29-question Bass and Perry aggression and 13-question Sullivan et al pain catastrophizing  questionnaires before, after and 4 months after the intervention. Data were Analyzed using ANOVA with repeated measures.

In the pre-test, the mean and standard deviation of ACT for aggression were 57.60±5.00 and for pain catastrophizing 37.13±4.79, and in the control group for aggression were 57.93±6.59 and for pain catastrophizing it was 38.40±5.27 (P<0.05). ACT reduced aggression (43.93±5.99) and pain catastrophizing (32.93±5.16) in girls with premenstrual dysphoric syndrome in the post-test (p<0.001). In the follow-up phase, the effect of this treatment for aggression (44.07±5.86) and pain catastrophizing (33.07±5.14) was lasting  (p<0.001).

According to the results of the present study, it can be said that the acceptance and commitment therapy can probably reduce the aggression and pain catastrophizing in girls with premenstrual dysphoric syndrome.

Learning theories help to design the desired educational programs. Wittrock developed the theory of generative learning, which is one of these theories. In different educational systems, little attention has been paid to the new methods of mathematics education, and one of these methods is education based on the theory of generative learning. The main objective of this research is to develop an educational program for teaching mathematical concepts to first-state secondary school students that will help the students develop a thorough understanding of the educational content of mathematics and in which the student actively participates in the learning process, creates meanings and relationships, and the teacher only serves as a facilitator. Metacomposition and a synthesis-research approach based on the seven-stage Sandelowski-Barroso model were used in this study to look into the research that had been done in this direction. The study area included 57 research articles according to the intended purpose, among which 19 articles and one thesis were selected using the Glynn tool. Concepts extracted from this study were summarised by the open coding method in the form of 131 concepts and 32 sub-categories, which finally resulted in 9 main categories. Then, according to the results obtained, a special math curriculum was designed for the first state secondary school. The content validity of the mathematics education curriculum was obtained using the Laushe method (P = 0.05).

Thermal comfort is one of the important and effective parameters on the health and efficiency of the human body, and textiles play a significant role in providing this parameter. In this regard, many engineered textiles have been proposed by adjusting different thermal mechanisms. In the present study, the recent developments in the field of active and passive temperature control (heating, cooling and two-mode textiles) have been expressed with emphasis on the effective mechanism of heat transfer in the desired textile. Finally, the used methods are compared and the challenges and opportunities in this field are pointed out.

The regeneration of trees in forests with a long dry season such as Zagros has extreme difficulties. Predicting of water deficit tolerance in the progenies based on the geographic, vegetative and physiologic characteristics such as the performance of photosystem can conducted to increasing the efficiency of plantations.

In this study, the progenies of 40 Persian oak trees derived from 8 populations located in southern Zagros forests were assessed for water deficit tolerance based on their geographic, growth and physiological characteristics such as photosystem II under greenhouse conditions. Also, the percentage of seedling establishment for each mother tree were evaluated by field trial during two years. The corresponding data obtained from these experiments in accompanied by the morphological characteristics of leaves and seeds of mother trees were used to developing of the predictive models of seedling establishment in the field. In this research, greenhouse and forest field experiment was conducted to evaluate the response of Persian oak seedlings to drought stress based on some indicators of stress resistance from photosystem II. Persian oak seedlings from different mother trees were subjected to drought stress by stopping irrigation for one month in the greenhouse conditions. Then, the seedlings were irrigated for one month again and in all stages, the photosystem II, the percentage of leaf yellowing and the percentage of survival of the seedlings were recorded. Also, the establishment of the offspring of mother trees in the forest field was evaluated based on the percentage of survival and the height of the seedlings during two years, and their relationship with the leaf and seed morphological characteristics of the mother trees was investigated.  

The results showed that there is a positive relationship between the percentage of survival, and stress resistance indicators in greenhouse conditions with the percentage of survival and the height of seedlings in the forest field. Also, seedlings from drier seed origin, lower altitudes and latitudes, had higher drought resistance in greenhouse conditions. However, none of the growth and survival parameters in the field was related to the environmental characteristics of population. The relationship between the leaf and seed morphological characteristics of mother trees with stress resistance and the establishment of seedlings showed that the seedlings grown from wider and heavier seeds had better growth characteristics and survival only in the first year. Also, some leaf morphological characteristics of mother trees, such as petiole length, tooth width and number of veins were affecting traits to seedlings successful establishment in the forest field.

The results of this research showed that collecting of larger seeds from mother trees with suitable leaf traits could be effective for reforestation success. In addition, the use of physiological traits in the control condition in greenhouse can help for selecting the resistant progenies from superior populations or mother trees.

In order to evaluate the level of urban poverty in different blocks of Rasht city and to cluster poverty in this city (very poor, poor, average, prosperous, very prosperous), 17 indicators of urban poverty using Arc GIS software and hot spot analysis method The space of urban poverty was drawn according to their poverty components. The rate of urban poverty in different blocks of Rasht city was calculated using R statistical software and Prometheus multi-indicator decision-making method, where the weights of the indicators were calculated using the ANP method from the raw data of the statistical blocks of Rasht city obtained in the census of 2015. The findings of the research showed that the hot spots (prosperous and very prosperous) are mostly seen in the central core of the city. On the other hand, cold spots (poor, very, and poor) are mostly observed in the outskirts of the city in the east, west, and southwest of Rasht city. The border between these two regions of moderate spots is a dividing line and the border of urban poverty from poor to wealthy. The comparison of the components shows that educational poverty has followed and expanded from a uniform structure in this city. The noticeable difference in the dimensions of urban poverty is in the social component and the economic component, so that the pattern of distribution of social poverty and economic poverty are inverted, wherever the social poverty is more, the economic poverty is less in them. Also, a significant difference between educational poverty and social poverty can be seen in the northeastern region of Rasht, which is poor and very poor in terms of social poverty, and on the contrary, it is prosperous and very prosperous in terms of education.

In this research, the multidimensional poverty index approach was used to calculate the amount of urban poverty in different blocks based on the components related to economic poverty, social poverty, and educational poverty.

In the city of Rasht, the dimensions of the physical development of the city have more obvious consequences. With its social, economic, industrial, etc. attractions, Rasht city has been known as a population attraction pole in the region, and the demographic changes and the subsequent physical development of the city after land reform in the second Pahlavi period from 1956 until now confirm this. Due to the location of this city in a smooth and fertile plain, this development has generally been associated with the destruction of agricultural lands and the annexation of villages around the city. Considering the rapid changes in population and the physical growth of the city, the need for planned development and urban organization is felt more than before.The effective factors in increasing the number of immigrants to the city of Rasht can be divided into two main natural and human groups from the point of view of geography and urban planning: natural factors such as: special geographical situation and earthquakes that happened in the surrounding cities. Human factors such as: political, economic-social factors, as well as rural repulsive and urban attractive factors. The increase in population has caused the reduction of urban per capita, so that different indicators are completely unbalanced in the city.The spatial expansion of Rasht city has expanded in a spiral and within the void and has integrated many agricultural lands within its service limits. Among other things that have been affected by the population growth are the heavy pollution of the rivers located in the city, as well as the increase in the production of garbage, urban sewage, and the change in the use of agricultural land. The growth of the population and especially the arrival of immigrants in Rasht city has caused a kind of selective economic-social separation in the city. Among other things, we can mention the increase in the level of informal settlements in the outskirts of the city and the increase in the amount of social crimes in these areas.Although the expansion of the city in the form of a star causes the land to remain empty in the distance between its radii, but these lands provide better conditions for the development of green spaces, forestry and parks. In general, at some distances from this design, the big ring roads connect the radii to each other. There is no development around the main roads. The main roads connect to different areas of the city at the intersection with Shuaa. This form is the logical result of the expansion of concentrated cities that begin to expand along the roads outside the city. Star city development allows for a centralized and compact model with a center and pulls public transportation to the city center, so that the entire city and its people have access to the city center, which, among other things, The merits of the plan are counted. Also, the existence of green spaces that have access to rural spaces also provides an environment for walking, cycling, horse racing and sightseeing. The theoretical model of the development of Rasht city, a combination of three models of multi-core construction (with the main cores of the central market, Zarjoub, Motahari Street, Pirsara and Golsar), general construction of the city (establishment of service units based on the geographical conditions of the city) and sectoral construction (Nashi) It is from the creation of radial streets such as Imam Khomeini, Shariati, Lahijan, Saadi, Shahid Ansari, Biston and Lakani Street). Due to the construction of this city, it has a radial-ring construction, which is indicated by the communication lines and accesses.

Based on the research findings and the comparison of social poverty, economic poverty, educational poverty and urban poverty in Rasht, the distribution of poverty in Rasht follows a uniform structure and has expanded. The noticeable difference in the dimensions of urban poverty is in the social component and the economic component, so that the distribution pattern of social poverty and economic poverty are inverted, so that wherever social poverty is more, economic poverty is less in them. A clear example of this is Hafez Abad in the west of the city. It is Rasht. Also, there is a significant difference between educational poverty and social poverty in the northeast region of Rasht, the rural neighborhood of Imam Reza, which is poor and very poor in terms of social poverty, but prosperous and very prosperous in terms of education. In terms of similarity, a significant similarity between the social dimension with the educational dimension and the economic dimension with the multidimensional poverty of Rasht city can be seen in most parts.

The prevalence of high-risk behaviors in young people is one of the concerns of societies. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of Acceptance and Commitment therapy in reducing high-risk and harmful behaviors among high school students in Mobarakeh City. The research method was quasi-experimental with a pretest and posttest design and a control group. The statistical population of the present study included high school students with high-risk behaviors in Mobarakeh city, referred to the education counseling center of this city. Participants included 30 students randomly assigned into two experimental and control groups of 15 students. The Iranian Adolescents’ Risk-taking Scale was administered as a pretest and posttest (2 weeks after the end of the experiment). The experimental group received a 6-session intervention based on acceptance and commitment therapy, with each session lasting 90 to 100 minutes. The control group did not receive any intervention. The data were analyzed using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA), and the results indicated a 56% reduction in risky behaviors (excluding alcohol consumption) among the participating students in the study (P<0.01). Furthermore, the acceptance and commitment therapy intervention led to a 56% reduction in risky behaviors among the students in the experimental group (P<0.01). Acceptance and commitment therapy can enhance students' ability to cope with high-risk behaviors.

Identifying the most suitable Brant`s oak (Quercus brantii Lindl.) seed origins (provenances) due to the increase in the intensity of summer drought in the Zagros forests is very important for the reforestation issue. In this research, the physiological and biochemical responses of Brant`s oak seedlings from eight provenances located in different altitudes and latitudes of Southern Zagros were investigated under drought stress (with the stopping of irrigation for one month). The data were analyzed in the factorial (2 levels of drought stress treatment and 8 levels of provenance), randomized complete design experiment by examining the simple and interaction effects of them. Also, drought resistance indexes of provenances were calculated and compared with each other by applying the photosystem II value before and after the stress. Results showed that severe drought stress significantly increased electrolyte leakage, osmolyte, Na, and proline contents in seedling leaves for all provenances. Although, the response of different provenances in terms of photosystem II was not similar. The provenances were located in lower altitudes (Basht site in Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad province and Ghaemiyeh site in Fars province) and had higher resistance and resilience values due to adaptation to high temperature and or low precipitation. Also, Chitab provenance (a cold site with less dryness in Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad province) became drought tolerant by closing its stomata during the day and thus reducing the photosystem II and improving it in the dark. Consequently, the drought resistance of Brant`s oak seedlings is partly influenced by the seed provenances and climatic conditions. The use of these results can be recommended to managers in the reforestation of the Zagros forests.

The present study was conducted with the aim of determining the effectiveness of Shahreshgh game on improving sexual knowledge, improving sexual attitudes and sexual myths and couples in Isfahan city. This research was applied and semi-experimental with a pre-test-post-test design with a control group. In the present study, 20 couples were selected based on the inclusion criteria and by purposive sampling from the aforementioned statistical population, and then 10 couples were randomly assigned to the experimental group and 10 couples to the control group, and the game ShahrEshgh (Najafi, 2015) was played for 8 sessions were conducted for the experimental group and questionnaires of sexual knowledge and attitudes and sexual misconceptions were used to measure in the pre-test and post-test.  The results showed that the significance level and effect size for the research variables were 0.001 and 36, respectively. Sexual attitude is 0.066 and 8, sexual misconceptions are 0.001 and 36. The results of this research show that the LoveCitygame can increase sexual knowledge and correct sexual misconceptions, but it has no effect on correcting sexual attitudes. Considering the importance of sex education couples through various and attractive tools, it is recommended to use this game for sex education couples.

This study investigated the medicinal properties of lavender and ways to increase its production.

To collect relevant data, we reviewed Out of twenty to thirty studies reviewed on the metabolites of this valuable plant and presented the results in the form of a review. Ultimately, we proposed a solution to increase the production of secondary metabolites.

The studies conducted on the therapeutic effects of this plant and the promising results led us to present a plan based on a strategy to increase the production of secondary metabolites. Lavender has been studied in a wide range of diseases and lavender aromatherapy has been shown to reduce anxiety before surgery. It has been found that lavender can be useful in preventing heart damage in people at risk of myocardial infarction and ischemic heart disease.

Various elicitors should be used in tissue culture conditions to produce secondary metabolites effectively.

 

Fishes are one of the most important sources of zoonotic parasites throughout the world. This study aimed to determine helminthic parasites of Fish caught in the Aras River.

During 2020-2021, a number of 100 fishes including 20 Cyprinus carpio, 10 Hypophthalmichthys molitrix, 5 Hypophthalmichthys nobilis, 12 Silurus glanis, 5 Aspius aspius, 15 Ratilus rutilus, 3 Sander lucioperca, 22 Luciobarbus capito, and 8 Abramis brama were caught. All parts of the fish body (scales, gills, eyes, muscles, gastrointestinal tract) were examined for Helminthes parasites. After clearing and temporarily staining with Lactophenol-Azokarmin, morphological characters of worms were analyzed using a calibrated microscope equipped with a camera.

After examining and evaluating the samples, 18 (18%) of the fish were infected with at least with one helminthic parasite. The species and percent of infection were as follows: Ligula intestinalis plerocercoid: Cyprinus carpio 40%, Ratilus rutilus 13.33%, Abramis brama 12.5% in the abdominal cavity. Bothriocephalus sp.: Cyprinus carpio 5% in the intestine. Diplozoon sp.: Cyprinus carpio 5% and Ratilus rutilus each 6.7% in gills. Dactylogyrus sp.: Cyprinus carpio 10%, Abramis brama 12.5% in gills. Clinostomum sp. metacercariae: Cyprinus carpio 5% infected with metacercaria in gills and abdominal cavity.

Among the investigated types of fish, the highest level of infection with helminthic parasites was found in common carp. Also, among the helminthic parasites found, the highest frequency is related to Ligula intestinalis, followed by Dactylogyrus

 Palliative care has been introduced as a strategy to improve the quality of life (QoL) of patients with incurable diseases and their families. One of the crucial points in palliative care is respect for human dignity. Therefore, this study aims to review the dignity of patients under palliative care along with its impact on patients.

In the current narrative review, Persian studies were searched in Persian language databases, such as SID and Magiran, with the keywords, patient dignity, and palliative care from April 2012 to May 2022. To search for studies in English, the keywords of patient dignity and palliative care were used in PubMed and Cochrane databases from June 2010 to May 2022. Meanwhile, the search was conducted in the Google Scholar database in Persian and English along with a manual search in Google. After searching the databases, 106 articles were selected and by applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria and removing duplicates, 8 articles were examined.

The results of the study showed that out of 8 articles, 1 article was in Iran and 5 articles were qualitative studies. Individual, care, and communication factors are effective in maintaining patients’ dignity.

Maintaining human dignity is one of the critical needs of a person under palliative care. Hence, the healthcare staff should consider treatments based on human dignity and perform their professional tasks deservedly according to the factors affecting the creation of dignity.

The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of cognitive-behavioral and semantic group therapy on reducing depression and increasing resilience and life expectancy in patients with Quid 19 in Tehran.

This experimental study was a pre-test-post-test with a control group. The statistical population of the study includes people who improved from Quid 19 in 1400 in Tehran hospitals. First, 60 people were selected based on available sampling, then based on the scores of Beck Depression Inventory, Connor and Davidson Resilience and Schneider Life expectancy questionnaires, 30 of these people were randomly divided into two experimental groups and a control group. One experimental group received 10 sessions of semantic therapy and the second experimental group received 13 sessions of cognitive-behavioral psychotherapy, but the control group did not receive any intervention.

The results showed that there was a significant difference between the two cognitive-behavioral group therapies and meaning therapy on reducing depression and increasing resilience and life expectancy in patients improved from Quid 19.

The results showed that cognitive-behavioral therapy and semantic therapy have been equally effective in reducing depression and have been effective in increasing resilience and life expectancy. Cognitive-behavioral therapy has been effective in increasing resilience and life expectancy.

Silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) can affect female fertility because they can cause toxicity in the ovaries. The aim of this study is to see if Spirulina platensis (SP) can protect mouse from Ag NPs-exposed toxicity in its ovary. Twenty-four female Naval Medical Research Institute (NMRI) mice were divided into four groups (n = 6 per group): control; Ag NPs (500 mg/kg daily); SP (300 mg/kg daily) and Ag NPs + SP (With the same defined doses). 30 days after oral gavage treatment, biochemical parameters were measured and ovary compartments were estimated stereologically. The Ferric Reducing Antioxidant Power (FRAP) values, hormonal concentrations, corpus luteum volume, and the number of healthy follicles were all significantly lower (p<0.05) in the Ag NPs group compared with the control group. in the SP group, malondialdehyde concentration and atretic follicles were significantly lower (p<0.05) compared with the control group. There was no significant difference in the mean total volume of ovary, cortex, medulla, oocyte and its nucleus, and the thickness of the zona pellucida in any group. Although, SP in the Ag NPs + SP group cannot compensate the above parameters to the control level, it considerably improves ovarian damage caused by Ag NPs through reducing oxidative stress.

Nowadays, drug crimes have been recognized as one of the criminal acts whose effects generally affect the community, so in order to have a fair trial, the principle of innocence was considered in the process of investigating drug crimes. Given the rule of ethics over the law and their two-way relationship, it is necessary to have special requirements governing the institution of crime detection in drug crimes. The purpose of this study is to determine the ethical-legal requirements of the principle of innocence of the institutions of the criminal justice system in the process of investigating drug crimes. The present research is a part of applied research in terms of purpose and has been studied in terms of data collection method through documentary and library methods.

Regarding the crimes under discussion, we have witnessed the precedence of criminality over the principle of innocence in cases such as poppy and coca cultivation, confiscation of means of transportation, confiscation and confiscation of drug traffickers' property. From the perspective of criminal psychology, the individual factors influencing the occurrence of the crime are important, which supervises the accused and includes the police force. From the point of view of criminal psychology, the personality of the accused of drug crimes and his personal characteristics in the occurrence of the crime are considered.

Human beings are inherently different and this fact can affect his/her behavior in work environments. The aim of this study was to examine the individual differences of employees (personality traits, biological and demographic factors) as a predictor of unsafe behaviors in a turbine manufacturing company.

In this cross-sectional study, safety behavior sampling technique, NEO-FFI questionnaire, demographic information questionnaire, BMI and cell type method were used to determine unsafe behaviors, personality traits, demographic variables, body mass index and blood group system, respectively. The statistical sample of the study was 260 employees of a turbine manufacturing industry. The SPSS software version 20 was used to analyze the data.

The results showed that 44.5% of employees’ behaviors were unsafe. There was a significant relationship between the occurrence of unsafe behaviors with smoking, BMI, blood type and neuroticism and agreeableness dimensions measured by NEO-FFI (p < 0.05). BMI was the most important predictorof unsafe behaviors in the present study.

Due to the role of individual differences in people’s tendency to unsafe behaviors, the results of this study can be considered in job design, screening of personnel according to their individual differences, and perform better interventions to prevent accidents at work.

Using the best evaluation method is particularly important for students in intensive care lession. In this regard, direct observation of practical skills is one of the new clinical evaluation methods that allow students to receive constructive feedback. This study aimed to determine the effect of evaluation through direct observation of procedural skills on clinical performance and satisfaction of nursing students in intensive care units.

This quasi-experimental study included 64 nursing students studying in the 7th semester of bachelor's degree in Urmia nursing school. Students were randomly divided into intervention (32 individuals; 15 male students and 17 female students) and control (32 individuals; 13 male students and 19 female students) groups. In the intervention group, the evaluation was performed by direct observation of procedural skilling methods including dressing change, intravenous (IV) line insertion, and suctioning activities of students on the first day, one week later, and two weeks later. In all three stages of the evaluation, students gave feedback for fifteen minutes. In the control group, evaluation was performed by the logbook method. In both groups, standard checklists were provided to the students. SPSS software version 19 and Student T-test and repeated measures analysis of variance were used in data analysis. The significance level was set at 5%.

The final score of the dressing change in the intervention group was higher than the control group (P <0.001). Students in the intervention group had also higher final IV-line insertion and suctioning scores than the control group (P <0.001).Furthermore, in the intervention group, the score of direct observation of procedural skills for dressing change, IV-line insertion, and suctioning increased significantly from the first to the third stage (P <0.001).

This study showed that students evaluated by direct observation of procedural skills method achieved a higher score than students evaluated by the logbook method. Hence, instructors and clinical professors can use direct observation of practical skills as an effective method in evaluating and learning nursing students, especially in the intensive care unit.

Venipuncture is one of the most common and anxious experiences in children related to hospitalization and disease. The facilitation of venipuncture saves time and costs, reduces the risk of infection, and maintains patient safety. This study aimed to compare the effect of two methods of using a venipuncture device and the common method of venipuncture on anxiety and physiological indicators of children.

This clinical trial study was conducted on 62 eligible children aged 3-6 years. The venous access was performed by a vein finder and the conventional method in the intervention and control groups, respectively. Anxiety responses, heart rate, respiration rate, blood pressure, and blood oxygen saturation in both groups were measured 5 min before and after venipuncture. The Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale was used to this end. Data were analyzed in SPSS software (version 23) using independent t-test, paired t-test, and analysis of covariance.

Physiological indices of heart rate (P<0.001) and respiratory rate (P=0.002) showed a significant difference after the intervention (P<0.001). However, the blood oxygen saturation (P=0.13), systolic blood pressure (P=0.31), and diastolic blood pressure (P=0.76) were not significant. The mean anxiety scores were reported as 13.77±1.94 and 18±2.44 in the intervention control groups, respectively, after the intervention (P=0.001). Based on the findings, the anxiety score showed a significant decrease in the intervention group after the venipuncture, compared to the control group (P<0.001).

Since the vein finder device had positive effects in reducing anxiety and maintaining physiologic indices balance in 3-6-year-old children, it can be applied as a proper method for intravenous catheterization in pediatric medical wards.

In the present research, the relationship between family structure and academic failure is considered with mediator role of  identity styles. The research method was correlation of path analysis. The statistical population consisted of all Secondary school students in the Khorramabad city. A sample of 365 students was selected using multi-stage random sampling and Purposive method. The research instrument consisted of Family structure Questionnaire (FAD) and Identity Styles (ISI), and the average less than 15 considered as a criterion for academic failure. For data analysis the path analysis method was used. Based on the results the research proposed model was approved. There was no direct relationship between family structure and academic failure, but there was an indirect relationship through all the components of identity styles, Also, there was a direct relationship between family structure and all components of identity styles. In addition, among the components of identity styles, two components of confused-avoidance identity styles and informational identity showed a direct relation with academic failure. In sum, the family structure through the identity styles as an influential mediator, can affect students' academic failure. Therefore, the central role of styles of identity and family structure should be at the center of attention of interventions and planning related to improving the academic performance of students.
