Since there is not an appropriate toll in Iran to completely evaluate it, the goal of this study was validating a foreign sample called UseLearn and its implementing in e-learning universities of Tehran. The research method was descriptive–correlational. A sample size of 288 was chosen through proportional allocation. The tool used in this study was UseLearn. The data were analyzed by confirmatory factor analysis, Cranach’s alpha coefficient, one-sample t test, ANOVA and MANOVA. Results showed that 12-factor model tested in this study was approved by AGFI. Also, factor loadings obtained for the questions (except question 29) indicated the validity of the questionnaire. Single-sample t test results indicated that the e-learning systems in e-learning universities of Tehran are not in a good situation in terms of usability. Results of MANOVA showed that there was a significant difference between the means of components of UseLearn questionnaire. Thus, UseLearn questionnaire can be used as a valid tool for assessing the usability of e-learning systems in the country. Manuscript profile -

The MoreThe aim of this research was to make a valid and reliable questionnaire for assessing the information literacy of distance learners. The statistical population of it included all students that enrolled in all branches of Payam-e-Noor University of Hamedan province. The total number of those was 28530 people. For sampling of subjects, a cluster sampling method was used. On the basis of this method, 387 subjects were selected based on Kerejsi and Morgan table. To gather data, a research-made questionnaire was used. This questionnaire was made based on the Likert scale (very high, high, moderate, low, and very low). The components of the instrument (questionnaire) included 5 standard competency of ACRL. The questionnaire is composed of 30 items in the form of self-report statements. To make the items suitable, discriminative power method was used, and to validate the items, content, formal and construct validity (convergent validity and factor analysis) were used. Based on the convergent validity, the correlation coefficient between this questionnaire and Asghrnia’s Questionnaire (2009) was 0/77. Also, results of explanatory factor analysis on the items of questionnaire led to extraction of 6 factors with a total cumulative variance explained nearly 66%. For making items reliable, the Cronbach’s alpha was used (a=0/94). Results show that the research-made scale (information literacy questionnaire) is a suitable and a reliable instrument for assessing the information literacy of distance learners. Moreover, other results of the research shows that there are a significant and positive correlation between learners’ level of information literacy skills and their age. Manuscript profile -

Although there have been many theoretical studies about the characteristics and obstacles of the party system in Iran, none has been done so far about development drivers based on different variables in the four constructions. Given this lack, the basic question of this article is: What are the driving forces behind the development of political parties in the Islamic republic of Iran? The hypothesis obtained in this research is that the most important drivers are strengthening the democratic structure of power and political freedoms, strengthening party discourse, strengthening social capital, developing civil society institutions, party independence, developing a culture of participation and collective work, and facilitating the circulation of political elites, The structure of parties and their supervision. The prospective research framework used in this research is based on library methods, questionnaires and the use of Micmac software. The most important finding of this research is the discovery and description of the drivers of party development. Manuscript profile -

As the future builders of the country, it is essential that pupils have a very high mental health level, so this study evaluated the effect of color on their mental health. The approach of this research is "applied" and interventional. In order to measure the child's strengths and weaknesses, a questionnaire (SDQ) that has five subscales of emotional symptoms, behavior problems, hyperactivity-attention deficit, communication problems with peers and pro-social behaviors has been used. Based on the results, it can be said that male students' hyperactivity symptoms before and after coloring are distinct, since the significance level for boys is lower than that of 0.05. However, the significance level for girls is greater than the significance level of 0.05, which means that with 95% confidence, there is no difference between the mean hyperactivity symptoms of female pupils before and after coloring. As a result, the coloring of the classes affected the signs of hyperactivity of male pupils, but it did not affect the signs of hyperactivity of female pupils. Manuscript profile -

The Portrait Value Questionnaire (PVQ; Schwartz et al., 2001) was administered to 1532 students (766 females, 766 males) in eighth- and eleventh- grades (age groups 14 and 17, respectively) who were selected equally from six educational districts of Tehran using stratified random sampling. The Smallest Space Analysis (SSA) technique was performed to analyze the structure and content constellations of values. Findings indicated that the content and structure of human values among Iranian adolescents were widely consistent with the universal theoretical model of values proposed by Schwartz (1992). There were no sex differences in defining the meaning and structuring of values. However, some variations of the expected model were observed. The location of benevolence value type was not consistent with the prototypical structure of values, and the dynamic relation between the "self-transcendence" and "self-enhancement" higher-order values was violated. These modified structures represents Iranian adolescents' specific characteristics (culture index). The present study suggested some controversial findings regarding the nature of moral values in Iranian adolescents. Manuscript profile -

Data provided by 535 married Iranian participants (244 males and 291 females), completing the RBQ, resulted in omitting 13 items due to low item total correlation and factor loadings. Cronbach's alpha for the remaining 58 items scale and test-retest reliability were 0.95 and 0.93 respectively. The result of explanatory factor analysis using oblique rotation method showed that the scale included seven factors, including expectations to: a) be perfect in a marital relationship, b) be interdependent, c) have monogamous relations, d) be devoted, e) be rational and open to each other, f) read each other’s mind, and g) be aware of each others past thoughts, feelings and needs. The extracted factors confirmed by confirmatory factor analysis. A positive correlation (r = 0.32, P < 0.01) between RBQ and the Irrational Beliefs Test (Jones, 1968) supported the convergent validity. No university educated participants showed more irrational beliefs than did more educated participants. There were no gender or age differences in irrational beliefs about marital relationships. The length of marriage and number of children also were not correlated to such irrational beliefs. The standardized scores of RBQ measures are presented. Manuscript profile -

The present study aims to explain the alterations in structure of Iranian students’ values dealing with an approach to the original theoretical model in terms of causal effects of socio-political conditions, particularly the increasing impact of mass communication during last decade. 400 students (200 females, 200 males) completed the 40–item version of Portrait Values Questionnaire (PVQ-40, Schwartz et al., 2001) and using Smallest Space Analysis (SSA), value structure relations were determined. Compared with previous sample structure, as well as the original theoretical model, the following cross-cultural similarities and dissimilarities were recognized: 1) in spite of previous study, the achievement value appeared in its expected position, 2) a new alteration in the order of hedonism value, in regard to circular arrangement of values was observed, and 3) national security and social order items were transferred to universalism value as before. The study demonstrated that despite the impact of modernization and convergence process on the students’ values, tendency towards idealizing senses of certain values still remains.

Addiction to the Internet can cause fundamental changes in human life. Due to the importance of the subject in this research, the psychometric properties of Young's Internet Addiction Questionnaire and its relationship with Basic psychological needs were determined. The statistical population is the students of Roudehen University in 1400, of which 481 people were investigated by multi-stage random sampling method. Young's Internet Addiction Questionnaire and Desi and Ryan's Basic Psychological Needs Questionnaire were used to measure the research variables. SPSS and AMOS software were used for data analysis. Cronbach's alpha coefficient value of 0.928 of the whole internet addiction test showed that the internal consistency and in other words the validity of the questionnaire is very high. In order to analyze the factors, an exploratory factor analysis was performed, as a result of which, three factors of tolerance were extracted as the first factor, salience as the second factor, and mood change as the third factor. Finally, the structural model of the relationship between basic psychological needs and Internet addiction was fitted and the inverse and significant relationship between basic psychological needs and Internet addiction was determined. Also, a significant relationship was found between all components of basic psychological needs and internet addiction with the main variable. Manuscript profile -

The results of multi-group confirmatory factor analysis revealed the cross-group invariance of factorial structure, factor loadings, and factor variances and covariance’s of the AGQ-R across male and female university students. Internal consistency for the different types of achievement goals consisting of mastery-approach, mastery-avoidance, performance-approach and performance-avoidance goals was 0/76, 0/78, 0/90 & 0/85, respectively. In sum, the findings emphasizing the group invariance of factorial structure of AGQ-R in male and female students suggested that it measured the same construct in these two groups. On the other hand, these findings provide evidence for the validity and reliability of the AGQ-R to measure achievement goals in the 2×2 conceptual framework in both sexes. Manuscript profile -

This article is a part of development-applied research in terms of purpose and descriptive-survey type in terms of data collection method. The statistical population included all gifted and ordinary high school students in Isfahan in the academic year of 1397-98. Cluster random sampling method was used and 400 people were tested individually with a questionnaire to assess the level of wisdom of adolescent students (WMQ). Data were analyzed using Spss and AMOS software using correlation coefficient, heuristic and confirmatory factor analysis. The results of the analysis showed that the mean index in the gifted group is higher than the normal group and gifted male and female students have a higher score in the Wise Behavioral Indices Questionnaire. Eight factors with eigenvalues greater than one were able to explain 71.494% of the variance of items. The results of the first-order confirmatory factor analysis showed that the model fit index is at a desirable level. The reliability of the questionnaire was calculated in terms of Cronbach's alpha coefficient 0.895. The coordination between the factors with the total score is acceptable and the model fit index is at a desirable level, which indicates that the questionnaire is sufficient. Manuscript profile -

The research method was testing and its statistical population was all undergraduate, master and Ph.D. students of Tehran, Al-zahra and Azad universities in 2020. Of these, 287 were selected through available sampling. The data were analyzed using Cronbach's alpha indices, composite reliability, content validity index, content validity ratio, and confirmatory factor analysis. Cronbach's alpha was 0.60 for all drivers’ Questionnaire standards. Also, the composite reliability scores 88%. CVR was more than 62% and CVI more than 79%, indicating good content validity of the scale. The results of confirmatory factor analysis showed that factor loadings were greater than 0.3 and all paths from items to hidden variables were significant at the .001 level and the scale had appropriate construct validity. CMIN/DF 1/83 (p=.001); GFI 0.92, CFI 0.91, NFI 0.90, and RMSEA 0.54 were within acceptable thresholds. Given the desirable psychometric properties of the Persian version of the Drivers Questionnaire, it can be suggested to psychologists and counselors in research and diagnostic situations.Keywords: Accreditation, Factor Analysis, Psychometric Assessment, Drivers Questionnaire Manuscript profile -

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the validity and reliability of five dimensional mindfulness questionnaire in the Iranian society. For this purpose, 335 students were selected from available sampling and were analyzed with the five dimensional mindfulness questionnaire, multidimensional avoidance of experience and the quality of life questionnaire of the World Health Organization. The results of exploratory factor analysis indicated that the five dimensional mindfulness questionnaire in the Iranian population has six dimensions and shows satisfactory internal consistency (81/0 to 93/0). The total score of mindfulness has significant correlation with the total score of avoidance from experience and some of its factors (behavioral avoidance, delaying activity, and an aversion of mental distress). The results are convergent with the validity and reliability of the five dimensional mindfulness questionnaire. Accordingly, the five dimensional mindfulness questionnaire can be used for the evaluation and assessment of mindfulness in an Iranian society. Manuscript profile
