Then the subjects were examined using the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Allport's religious orientation questionnaires and Seligman Attributional Style Questionnaire (ASQ). Data were analyzed using pearson correlation, multiple regression analysis, multivariable analyze of variance and t-tests. The results showed that intrinsic attributional style and table attributional style in negative events were predictors of significant and positive depression. Intrinsic religious orientation was significant negative predictor of and depression. In addition, independent t-test showed that religious affiliation in females was significantly more than males. In addition, depression scores in females were significantly higher than that of males; furthermore, the difference between mean scores of intrinsic, global and stable attributional styles in positive and negative events simultaneously between females and males was not significant.

For this purpose, 40 items associated with moral behavior were designed using the comments presented by six experts and tested along with the Big Five Personality Traits Inventory (BFI), Ethical Sensitivity Scale Questionnaire (ESSQ), and Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI) on 329 undergraduate students.

The evidences related to convergent validity and internal reliability indicated the psychometric capacities of MBI.
