Collective violence is a significant global and national social and health issue, particularly in Iran.

This study investigated the impact of peer relationships, moral development, and family relationships on collective violence, with the mediating role of psychological security, among male high school students in Mashhad.

This correlational study involved a statistical population of all male high school students in Mashhad, with a sample size of 1,300 selected through cluster sampling. The tools used included multidimensional questionnaires: The Multidimensional Peer Acceptance of Collective Violence (MPACV) scale, the Moral Development Questionnaire (MDQ), Fine's Parent-Child Relationship Questionnaire (FP-CRQ), the adolescent peer relations instrument (APRI), and Maslow's Psychological Security Questionnaire (MPSQ). Data were collected between November 2023 and January 2024 and analyzed using SPSS18 and LISREL8.8 software. Path analysis was conducted to explore the relationships between variables.

The findings revealed that moral development has a negative and significant impact on collective violence (standard coefficient -0.16, significance coefficient -2.45). Additionally, the father-child relationship (standard coefficient -0.59, significance coefficient -8.98) and the mother-child relationship (standard coefficient -0.46, significance coefficient -7.06) negatively and significantly affect collective violence. In contrast, peer relationships positively and significantly influence collective violence (standard coefficient 0.24, significance coefficient 3.70). Psychological security plays a crucial mediating role: Moral development (standard coefficient 0.41, significance coefficient 6.21), the father-child relationship (standard coefficient 0.54, significance coefficient 8.24), and the mother-child relationship (standard coefficient 0.50, significance coefficient 7.65) positively and significantly affect psychological security, which in turn reduces collective violence (standard coefficient -0.24, significance coefficient -3.70). However, peer relationships negatively impact psychological security (standard coefficient -0.53, significance coefficient -8.06), contributing to increased collective violence.

Enhancing moral development and strengthening family relationships can significantly reduce collective violence among students by improving their psychological security.

The purpose of the current research is to analyze the process of teaching professional ethics of teachers in Teacher Training University and to offer a model for it. For this purpose, the research strategy of data-based theory was used, which belongs to the category of qualitative research. The research tool was a semi-structured interview. The participants of the research include all professors of the teacher's professional ethics course at Teacher Training University, and 15 individuals were interviewed based on the criterion of theoretical saturation. After open, central and selective coding, the obtained data were categorized into 10 main categories, which in the form of a paradigm model include: causal conditions (appropriate professor, appropriate content), focal category (effectiveness of ethics education), strategies of professional ethics education (effective teaching method, continuous empowerment), context (ethical university), intervening conditions (conflict between learning and field of practice, unqualified professors) and consequences (positive and negative). This reflects the process of teaching professional ethics and the relationships between different dimensions of teaching professional ethics to student teachers through these categories. In the end, based on the obtained results, recommendations are presented for improving the process of teaching professional ethics of teachers in Teacher Training University.

The present research was conducted with the aim of investigating the effectiveness of professional ethics education in Farhangian University and exploring its challenges and solutions. For this purpose, a mixed research method has been used. In the quantitative part, a semi-experimental research design with pre-test-post-test and control group was used. 1 class of elementary education students entering october 2019 who had taken the teacher's professional ethics course were considered as the experimental group and 1 class of students of the same field and entry who had not taken this course were considered as the control group. The data collection tool was Qasimzadeh's professional ethics questionnaire (2013). Data analysis was done by descriptive statistics, univariate covariance analysis and SPSS22 software. In the qualitative part, the thematic analysis of Brawn and Clark’s (2006) was used. The results of the quantitative part showed that teaching professional ethics of teachers significantly increases the professional ethics of student teachers (P<0.001); But it is still far from the optimal level. In the qualitative part, the challenges of this program include the challenges of the field of thought (the weakening of morals in the society; disregarding the value and dignity of teachers) and the challenges of the field of practice (the conflict between theory and practice; curriculum problems ) was analyzed. Also, strategies for promoting ethics education at two university levels (student recruitment policies; professor selection policies; continuous empowerment) and classroom (choosing appropriate content; using appropriate teaching methods) were identified.

This research aimed at investigating the effectiveness of teaching spiritual intelligence based on teachings of Islamic education on the afterlife belief and religious orientation of students in Farhangian University of Kerman.

The research method was semi-experimental with a pre-test/post-test design of the control group. The research population included all students of Farhangian University of Kerman in the first semester of 2022 academic year, consisting of 1830 subjects. Fifty people were selected as a sample using available sampling method and were divided into two experimental (25 subjects) and control (25 subjects) groups. The experimental group was trained in spiritual intelligence based on the teachings of Islamic education in 8 sessions of 90 minutes, and the control group did not receive any intervention. The data collection tools were Ebrahimi and Bahrami eschatological questionnaire (2011) and Bahrami religious orientation (2008). Data analysis was done using descriptive statistics, analysis of covariance, and SPSS-22 software.

The results showed that teaching spiritual intelligence based on Islamic education teachings significantly increased the afterlife belief and religious orientation of students (P<0.001). The amount of this effect based on the effect size was 0.58 on the afterlife belief and 0.46 on religious orientation.

Based on this study, we may suggest that a plan should be considered in universities to familiarize professors and students with the content of spiritual intelligence based on Islamic teachings, so that the Islamic education and training are internalized in them.
