        The Dunning-Kruger effect is a kind of cognitive bias in unprofessional people who suffer from the illusion of superiority and incorrectly evaluate their ability to be overly real. This bias is attributed to the metacognitive inability of unprofessional individuals to identify their disability and is a blood stream in the human body. Financial managers also suffer from this cognitive error in their own assessment of others, as financial managers with a level of ability and experience usually evaluate themselves more often than they are. For example, those who have the capability of an accounting expert have their own accounting officer and those who have the ability to become accounting officer, they identify themselves as financial advisors and those who are capable of a financial manager, as financial advisers, and usually themselves more than what they are. Or vice versa, they are less than what they are, which is due to self-esteem or self-righteousness, or to Duning Kruger's. In this research, we examine the characteristics and general criteria of financial managers and identify the skills of financial managers, and the results show that the skills of financial managers are usually more than what they have in them.   Manuscript profile

        Communication skills are among the basic skills for living in the present age. Due to their job position, physicians must have sufficient skills to communicate properly with patients to enjoy comfort, satisfaction and health. The purpose of this study was the effect of communication skills training on flexibility, self-responsibility and professional commitment of Arak dental students in relation to patients. This study was a quasi-experimental pre-test and post-test with a control group. The statistical population included all dental students of Arak State University of Medical Sciences in 2019, who were selected by available sampling method of 24 people and randomly divided into experimental groups (n=12) and control (n= 12). After selecting the sample and performing a pre-test on both groups, the solution-based treatment program was performed on the experimental group during 11 sessions of 90 minutes (2 sessions per week) and no intervention was performed on the control group. Research instruments included the 20-item Cognitive Flexibility Questionnaire by Dennis and Vanderwall (2010), and the 16-item Responsibility Questionnaire by Salkovskis et al., (2010) And the Clikeman &amp; Henning (2020) 15-item Professional Commitment Questionnaire. To analyze the data from statistical methods of multivariate analysis of covariance and analysis of covariance was used. The results showed that there was a significant difference between the mean scores of flexibility post-test and self-responsibility knowledge of experimental and control students. Based on the results, it can be said that communication skills training has an impact on students' flexibility and self-responsibility. Therefore, the intervention method of communication skills training, due to strengthening the mental ability to control unpleasant and inflexible thoughts, causes mental flexibility and avoidance of automatic thoughts and irrational cognitive distortions in the individual. And performing student-professional duties strengthens them positively. Manuscript profile

        Although previous studies have highlighted the challenges of implementing the cooperative learning approach, they have not addressed the implementation strategies of this approach in order to develop students' leadership skills. On the other hand, studies have shown that leadership skills can be taught to children, but they have not clearly revealed how this happens. The aim of this study is to combine the results of national and international studies in order to fill this research gap. Sandelowski and barroso method was used in this study. Data were coded through Atlas T software. In order to complete, modify and validate the data, the method of focus groups was also used. Based on the results of the present study, improving curriculum elements such as facilities, subjects, learning environment, teacher and student, and improving the attitude of stakeholders and stakeholders can provide the basis for the development of leadership skills in students. The results indicated the prominence of some skills such as creativity, problem solving, self-confidence, adaptability, empathy, criticism, and responsibility. Some skills, such as adaptability, acceptability of criticism, revealed new dimensions of leadership skills and were able to contribute to the development of knowledge in this field. Based on these findings, it can be concluded that developing leadership skills through cooperative learning approach in educational activities in the classroom environment is feasible.

        The present study aims to contently analyze the" Life Skills" textbook of the 5th grade of primary schools, based on the principles of curriculum contents selection. It, also, provides corrective strategies expressed by the curriculum planning experts. The descriptive method is employed and the data have been gathered by means of a researcher-made questionnaire which includes 30 closed- answer questions and 3 opened-answer questions. The questioner along with the book has been given to the curriculum planning experts, who have been chosen based on the random access sampling method. What being shown from the findings is that curriculum planning experts believe that the principles of importance, validity, profitability, learning ability, students' eagerness and attention to the structure of knowledge are highly considered in selecting the contents of the very book while, principle of flexibility has, to some extent, been observed. Inductively analyzing the data by means of one-sample t-test indicates that curriculum planning experts believe that observing the principles of importance, validity, profitability, students' eagerness and attention to the structure of knowledge and learning ability are statically meaningful however, the same cannot be said for the principle of flexibility .once analyzing the opened-answer questions, curriculum planning experts came to these conclusion that: a) nine subjects should be added to the contents of the book, the most important of which is proper relationship. b) Three subjects should be omitted, mainly the subjects about sorrow, sadness and anger. C) Seven other subjects should be more emphasized on, among which problem solving has had the highest frequency. Manuscript profile

        Selves-theory has some implications for EFL learning. Among different English skills, writing is more tied to selves-theory since it requires ideology transfer as a main element of selves-theory. However, writing academically in a foreign language is a complex struggle for many undergraduate and graduate students and it has attracted much attention in the field of applied linguistics since the last decades of the twentieth century. The present study aimed to explore Iranian EFL learners&rsquo; possible selves construction as influenced by teaching IELTS writing skills. To this end,a quasi-experimental design was used. From among IELTS candidates taking part in five IELTS preparation centers in Kerman,90 (45 males and 45 females) candidates were selected as the participants of the present study through cluster sampling. The Possible Selves in Students Questionnaire developed and validated by Zadshir et al. (2020) was used to identify the expected possible selves of the participants. To analyze the data,descriptive statistics and Multi-Variate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) were run. According to the results, feared selves were stronger than expected and responsible selves among the participants before training on IELTS writing skills. Further,it was revealed that expected and responsible selves were stronger than feared selves among the participants after training on IELTS writing skills. Finally,it was proved that training on IELTS writing skills had a significant effect on EFL learners& construction of the possible selves as well as the dimensions of the possible selves in the future. Implications of the results for EFL curriculum planners,teachers and learners have been discussed. Manuscript profile

The review discusses the main findings of each study, highlighting the positive impact of brainstorming and related strategies on language skills. The review also identifies gaps in the existing literature and suggests directions for future research, such as investigating the effectiveness of these strategies in enhancing other language skills and exploring their impact on different learner populations.

Family social capital directly predicts children's social skills (p = 0.002; &beta; = 0.67). Findings showed that the indirect effect of economic capital on children's social skills is significant through family social capital (p = 0.002; &beta; = 0.37) and according to the variance accounted for index (VAF = 100%), this mediation role is complete.

        Purpose: This study was aimed at understanding the lived experiences of teachers about the executive challenges of life skills education in secondary school.Methodology: This qualitative research was performed using the phenomenological method. Data collection tools were semi-structured interviews. For this purpose, using the criterion-based method and chain-based sampling, 13 interviews with teachers who were familiar with the skills of education were conducted. Thematic analysis was used to analyse the data. To validate the research, Lincoln and Guba's evaluative criteria were used.Findings: The analysis of the interviews indicates four comprehensive themes (social challenges, economic challenges, content challenges, and method challenges), 17 organizing themes, and 43 basic themes. The results showed that items such as non-involvement of students, non-involvement of parents, unfamiliarity with the life skills, resistance of stakeholders, ideological view, lack of attention to the needs of adolescents, lack of appropriate resources, irrelevant content, overemphasis on knowledge, chaotic content structure, double financial burden on the education system, lack of financial involvement of stakeholders, No budget allocation, lack of familiarity of teachers in teacher training with topics related to life skills, multiple academic pressure on students, inappropriate assessment and inappropriate teaching tools play a major role in the ineffective implementation of life skills training.Conclusion: According to the above findings, it can be said that teaching life skills will not be effective regardless of the challenges that exist in this regard, so solving these challenges is one of the most basic prerequisites for teaching life skills.

        Abstract : The present study aims to investigate literacy stability rate among the trainees admitted to the transition course. The methodology is quasi-experimental with pre-tests and post-tests for one group. Total 165 trainees were selected out of the total trainees who had been admitted to the course, and their pass marks were considered pre-tests. Later, post-tests were administered to the selected trainees. Data collection instruments were achievement tests on mathematics, essay writing, sentence writing and spelling. The contents of all the tests were based on previously administered standard tests, with their content reliability measured by educational experts. The findings show that there is a significant difference between the results of the pre-tests and post-tests, which, in turn, indicates that the trainees had already forgotten approximately 15% of the learned content. The findings also show that there is a significant difference between the results of the pre-tests and post-tests on mathematics, which, in turn, indicates that the trainees had already forgotten approximately 38% of the learned content. Furthermore, the findings show that there is a significant difference between the results of pre-tests and post-tests on spelling, which, in turn, indicates that the trainees had already forgotten approximately 8% of the learned content. However, the difference between the results of the pre-tests and post-tests on essay writing and sentence writing were not significant. The findings of the present study point to the necessity of implementing appropriate planning and adopting useful strategies to address trainees&rsquo; needs after they complete the course.

        Today, most experts believe that critical thinking provides understanding and knowledge assessment for learners, and it is vital for working decision makings, clinical judgment, professional success and effective participation in community activities. Regarding the practicality of the rehabilitation graduates functions; this study was conducted to study critical thinking skills in students of University of Welfare and Rehabilitation Sciences. The research method is correlation, and 221 students were selected by using multi-stage random sampling and critical thinking test was given. For data analysis of the descriptive tests, the Independent T-test, r Pearson Reliability and One-way ANOVA were used. The results of ANOVA showed that there is no significant difference between the mean score of students ' critical thinking skills in terms of the total score and each of the subscales, (F=.698; p=0.594). There is a significant difference in the total score of critical thinking among students of different academic levels, (F=4.87; p=0.009). Also, there is no significant difference between mean of critical thinking (and its subscales) of the students and each of the variables of age, sex and location. The relationship between educational level and marital status and critical thinking skills is significant (p=0.01). The students' total score of critical thinking is in moderate to good, and in terms of their subscales is in lower moderate. In other words, students' critical thinking is not in good condition so appropriate revision of curricula and teaching critical thinking workshops can be effective for students in solving this challenge.

        این مطالعه به بررسی همبستگی بین دانش نحوی دانشجویان پیشرفته زبان انگلیسی و مهارت نوشتاری و گفتاری آنها پرداخت تا مشخص کند که آیا دانش نحوی دانش‌آموزان می‌تواند بر مهارت‌های تولیدی آنها تأثیر بگذارد یا خیر. در مجموع 50 دانش آموز پیشرفته بین 18 تا 25 سال به طور هدفمند برای شرکت در مطالعه انتخاب شدند. برای جمع‌آوری داده‌های مورد نیاز از چهار آزمون شامل آزمون تعیین محل، آزمون نحو از انتشارات دانشگاه آکسفورد، آزمون نوشتاری و یک آزمون مهارت گفتاری استفاده شد. از آنجایی که داده‌های این پژوهش کمی بود، طرح همبستگی/توصیفی برای تجزیه و تحلیل داده‌ها انتخاب شد. سپس محقق تصمیم گرفت تا بر اساس داده‌های به‌دست‌آمده، بین نمرات نوشتاری و گفتاری دانش‌آموزان و نمرات نحوی آن‌ها همبستگی پیدا کند. هر دو آزمون t و همبستگی پیرسون نشان دادند که بین مهارت نحوی، گفتاری و نوشتاری دانش‌آموزان همبستگی واقعی وجود ندارد. یافته‌های بیشتر نشان داد که بین دانش نحوی و مهارت گفتاری و رابطه دانش نحوی و مهارت نوشتاری تفاوتی وجود ندارد. مفهوم این مطالعه این است که صلاحیت دستوری پیش‌بینی‌کننده معتبری برای مهارت دانش‌آموزان در دروس نوشتاری و گفتاری نیست. اگر صلاحیت گرامری دانش آموز کم باشد، مهارت او در نوشتار و گفتار بسته به روند ارزیابی این مهارت ها همچنان می تواند متوسط یا حتی بالاتر از حد متوسط باشد. علاوه بر این، فراگیران باید درک کنند که داشتن درک قوی از دانش گرامری به طور اجتناب ناپذیری توانایی آنها را برای تولید زبان موثر در فرم گفتاری یا نوشتاری تضمین نمی کند.

        Education plays a fundamental role in institutionalizing sustainable development. This research, which is a descriptive survey, seeks to identify the factors involved in sustainable development decision-making and the degree of deviation and the optimal situation in education policy. To ensure the validity of the questionnaire, in the first stage, the ambiguous points were clarified consulting the experts and in the second stage, using SPSS and the results of confirmatory factor analysis, those questions whose factor loadings had an effect on the fit of the model, were keep in the measurement model. Also, regarding convergent validity, Smart PLS was performed and the value of factors was greater than 0.4 which indicates acceptable validity. To measure reliability, both Cronbach's alpha and combined reliability test (CR) were used and in both cases, the value was higher than 0.7, indicating acceptable reliability. A combination of sampling methods, including available, purposive, snowball, and theoretical samplings was used. The statistical population consisted of all education experts and policymakers and the sample size was 70. Ten of the participants were selected as a qualitative sample for in-depth interviews and 60 people were selected as a quantitative sample. Finally, based on the output of PLS, the ranking of responsibility, future orientation, system orientation, practical skills, and individual participation, respectively, were identified as the decision-making factors of sustainable development in education policy, and it was found that there is a gap about one unit between the current and the desired situation in this regard.

        Extended Abstract Introduction: Education is the cornerstone upon which individual growth and societal progress are built. Its multifaceted nature extends beyond the mere transfer of knowledge, encompassing cognitive, social, and emotional development. Yet, within this expansive landscape, the integration of architectural education into early learning stands as an often overlooked but potent catalyst for transformation. This study endeavors to delve into the nuanced implications of introducing architectural concepts to preschoolers, recognizing and emphasizing their profound impact on cognitive and intellectual development during the critical formative years. Architectural education, typically associated with advanced learning stages, extends far beyond teaching design principles or spatial awareness. Its introduction in early childhood settings is poised to play a pivotal role in shaping the cognitive framework of young minds. Understanding the depth and breadth of how architectural education influences the developmental trajectory of preschoolers holds promise for redefining educational paradigms. Methodology: The methodology adopted in this study was meticulously designed to comprehensively evaluate the influence of architectural education on the cognitive development of preschoolers. From a vast national pool of 30,000 educational centers, a meticulously chosen sample of 384 preschoolers underwent stringent selection using a combination of robust methods, including the Morgan, Kersey, and Cochran techniques. Each classroom, representing diverse demographics and learning styles, actively participated in a meticulously structured study. This carefully curated sample was methodically divided into a control group and a test group. Before the commencement of the study, both groups underwent comprehensive initial assessments, ensuring a clear baseline understanding. Subsequently, the test group received dedicated architectural training, while the control group followed the standard preschool curriculum. Furthermore, the study involved in-depth face-to-face interviews employing a mosaic method, allowing for a nuanced understanding of the diverse learning styles and individual responses exhibited by these young learners. Results: The empirical findings from this exhaustive study present compelling evidence supporting a robust correlation between architectural education and the enhancement of critical cognitive skills among preschoolers. Noteworthy advancements were discerned across a spectrum of cognitive domains: heightened spatial recognition (P Value= 0.0325, F= 6.14), amplified visualization capabilities (P Value= 0.0269, F= 6.3), adeptness in spatial reconstruction (P Value= 0.0017, F= 21.307), improved orientation skills (P Value= 0.00001, F= 51.822), enhanced comprehension (P Value= 0.004, F= 14.77), and a notable surge in problem-solving aptitude (P Value= 0.039, F= 5.17) among preschoolers exposed to architectural education. Conclusion: This research illuminates the pivotal role of architectural education as a transformative force that transcends conventional paradigms of knowledge dissemination. It emerges as a catalyst profoundly shaping the cognitive landscape during the crucial formative developmental years. The exposure to architectural concepts goes beyond imparting factual information; it fosters foundational comprehension and a nuanced understanding of spatial relationships. Furthermore, it ignites creative problem-solving abilities and cultivates holistic cognitive development, providing a robust groundwork for future educational endeavors and lifelong learning. Moreover, the implications of this study extend far beyond immediate educational contexts. They underscore the pressing need for the integration of interdisciplinary approaches in early childhood education. By integrating architectural education at the preschool level, educational systems can better nurture adaptable, innovative thinkers equipped to navigate and thrive in an increasingly dynamic and innovation-driven global landscape.

Another result of research was that level of students&rsquo; information literacy in PNU isn&rsquo;t desirable and there is a gap between status quo and desirable situation; therefore some interventions (such as: formal and informal instruction) for rising of students&rsquo; information literacy is proposed. &nbsp; Manuscript profile

        Nowadays,besides humane,financial and economic capital,another factor has been propounded in organizations which is called "social capital".social capital provides an appropriate enviroment for human resume productivity.On the other hand ,social capital has a significant role in making it possible to use other forms of organizational capitals.Social capital is a set of existing norms in social systems that increases the level of coopeation among members of society and reduces the relationships costs(Fokuyama 1999). Emotional intelligence may play a basic role in work environment (Mckee et al. 2002).Daniel Goleman (1998) defines emotional intelligence as self-awareness,self-managment,self-motivation,social-awareness and social-management. Given that social capital is linked to the relationships among individuals and emotional intelligence has a crucial impact on forming these relationships.This research has attempted examining the impact of the five dimensions of emotional intelligence as independent variables on social capital aspects(namely trust,communication networks,common goals,and language)as dependent variables among the researchers and managers of IRIB research center. this research is a descriptive survey in which the relationships among independent and dependent variables have been examined considering the data collected through questionnaires.Descriptive and inferential statistics have also been applied in order to conduct analysis and provide a model.the results show that there is a direct relationship between emotional intelligence and social capital.therefore,it is possible to increase the level of social capital in the organizations by considering emotional intelligence indicator at the beginning of recruitment and instructing it through the work.

        نقش راهکارهای مختلف تفکر انتقادی در خواندن متن منجر به مطالعات قابل توجهی شده است. این مطالعه ترکیبی با هدف بررسی تأثیرات راهکارهای تحلیل و مفهوم‌سازی تفکر انتقادی پیشنهاد شده توسط الدر و پل (2009)، بر مهارت‌های درک مطلب، و همچنین بررسی ادراک زبان‌آموزان زبان انگلیسی در سطح متوسط با توجه به جنسیت انجام شده است. بدین منظور 60 زبان آموز مونث ومذکر در محدوده سنی 25 تا 38 سال از مجموع 120 زبان آموز با استفاده از آزمون کمبریج C2 (CPE) در مؤسسه پویندگان چالوس انتخاب شدند. سپس به‌طور تصادفی در دو گروه آزمایشی برای استفاده از راهکار مفهوم‌سازی، دو گروه آزمایشی برای اجرای راهکار تحلیل متن و دو گروه شاهد برای دریافت روش مرسوم آموزش درک مطلب در مؤسسه قرار گرفتند. سپس آزمون استعداد تحصیلی (SAT) به عنوان پیش آزمون قبل از آموزش هشت هفته ای اجرا شد. پس از استفاده از شیوه های پیشنهادی، پس‌آزمون همراه با مصاحبه نیمه ساختاریافته با 12 فراگیر منتخب اجرا شد. داده های کمی با استفاده از آزمون تحلیل واریانس یک طرفه و آزمون تی جفتی مورد تجزیه و تحلیل قرار گرفت. نتایج نشان داد که اجرای متغیر مستقل تأثیر معنی‌داری بر بهبود درک مطلب داشتند. نتایج کیفی همچنین نشان داد که فراگیران دیدگاه های مثبتی نسبت به آموزش راهکارهای تفکر انتقادی اتخاذ کردند. با این حال، جنسیت نقش مهمی در استفاده از راهکارهای تفکر انتقادی در درک مطلب نداشت. پیامدهای مطالعه در پایان مقاله مورد بحث قرار گرفت.

        aim of the present study was to examine the efficacy of problem-solving skills training in parent-child relationships. The study design was quasi-experimental pre-test and post-test without control group. The sample consisted of 61 mothers of children ages between 4 and 7 years. Trained psychologists conducted the problem solving skills training two hours a session for nine weeks (one session per week). To evaluate the effectiveness of the training, the Mother-Child Relationship Evaluation Scale (Robert, 1961) was used. Repeated measurement procedure was used to analyze the data. The results indicated that the Raising a Thinking Child workshops decreased over-protectiveness and child rejection, and increased acceptance and improved mother-child relationships. There was not any significant difference in over-indulgence. Given the important role parents play in the development and socialization of children and the findings of this study, it can be concluded that problem-solving skills training will improve the interactions among family members, especially between parents and children. &nbsp; Manuscript profile

Twenty seven Iranian studies from 2001 to 2012 comprising of 3089 participants were used in the meta-analysis. Data was analyzed using standardized mean difference effect size method or Cohen&rsquo;s d (1988) for fixed effect model. Findings indicated that the mean of mixed-model of effect size for fixed effect model and for random effect model were significant, respectively 1.834 and 3.117(P&lt;0.001). Since the effect sizes were heterogeneous, moderating variables were searched. The results indicated that in terms of research designs and gender there were no significant differences between effect sizes across the studies. However, in terms of age and number of life skills training there were significant differences between effect sizes across the studies. Manuscript profile

        This study investigated the theory of mind development and its relation to social skills in children and adolescence with Visual impairment. Study population consisted of all students with visual impairment in Mashhad city. Using purposeful sampling, 43 children in four age groups (4, 7, 10 and 13 years old) were selected. To measure the theory of mind, two Tasks of False Beliefs (Task of Belief Prediction, Perner, &amp; Wimmer, 1987; Task of Action Prediction, Wimmer, &amp; Perner, 1983) were used. To assess social skills and behavioral problems, Social Skills Scale (teacher form; Gresham, &amp; Elliott, 1990) was used. Research data were analyzed using the Chi square test, Pearson correlation coeffcient and logistic regression analysis. Significant relationships were found between the performance of the Action Prediction Task and the overall scores of social skills, and between the performance of both tasks (the Action Prediction Task and the Belief Prediction Task) and the overall scores of behavioral problems. The results also showed that verbal IQ and age predicted the performance of the Action Prediction Task. Manuscript profile

        This&nbsp;study was conducted with the aim of recognizing the role of parenting attitude to literacy in predicting cognitive skills in children between the ages of 5 years old to 5 years old and 11 months. 128 children (66 boys and 62 girls) were selected from Borazjan, through randomized cluster sampling method. The study design was correlational and the children completed two scales of Early Cognitive Skills (Hamnavay-e Avay-e Royesh, 1394) while their parents completed the Home Literacy Environment Scale (Hamnavay-e Avay-e Royesh, 1394). Data analysis indicated that home literacy environment has a positive correlation with early child&rsquo;s cognitive skills. The results of multiple regression analysis indicated that home literacy environment explains 24% of the variance of early cognitive skills (14%reading-writing skills and 10% math skills) in children, and the parent&rsquo;s interest in reading subscale (from literacy environment scale) predicts 4% of children&rsquo;s reading-writing skills.

        The effectiveness of life skills training in relieving depression was examined. Sixty two female students in grade nine were randomly selected and assigned to an experimental or a control group. Biweekly, the experimental group received life skills training sessions of two hours, for 12 weeks. The both groups completed the Children Depression Scale (Lang &amp; Tisher, 1983) before and after the training. The results of ANCOVA posited that life skills training significantly decreased symptoms of depression: social problems, and mental preoccupation with illness and death. However there were no significant difference between the two groups in terms of affective response, feelings of guilt, self esteem and pleasure. It appears that a complete treatment of symptoms requires a more extensive training.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Manuscript profile

        The present study aims at prioritizing performance evaluation attributes in Iranian Taekwondo National Team coaches in the view of national athletes. The statistical sample was the same as the statistical population due to the low number of participants (n=61). A researcher-made questionnaire including seven sections was used as the instrument. Face validity and content validity were approved by eleven experts including university professors, National Taekwondo Team coaches, international referees, and Taekwondo experts and academics. Cronbach&rsquo;s Alpha (&alpha;=93/0) and composite reliability (83/0) were used to evaluate instrument&rsquo;s reliability. SPSS software and Friedman test were used for data analysis and coaching criteria ranking, respectively. Based on the findings, the criteria can be listed based on the order of significance as technique skills, managerial skills, technical skills, professional relationships, psychological skills, socio-communicational skills, and championship experience. With respect to these results, athletic managers in Taekwondo Federation should focus on technique and managerial skills before the other criteria for more development of Taekwondo.

        We explored Computerized Dynamic Assessment's (CDA) effect on Iranian English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners' pronunciation skills, with a focus on the moderating role of Digitalized Corrective Feedback (CF). Three intact classes from a language institute in Shiraz, Iran, totaling 60 lower-intermediate EFL learners, were assigned randomly to control and experimental groups. The treatment conditions received either CDA-only or CDA-plus Digitalized CF interventions, while the control group received traditional online instruction without mediation. Pretest and posttest assessments were conducted using a teacher-made pronunciation test. Results revealed significant improvements in pronunciation skills among learners in the experimental groups compared to the control group. Particularly, the CDA-only group demonstrated notable enhancements in pronunciation accuracy, while the CDA-plus CF group exhibited even greater improvements. The integration of Digitalized CF with CDA proved particularly effective in providing personalized and targeted feedback, leading to substantial advancements in learners' pronunciation proficiency. These findings underscore the potential of technology-enhanced interventions, such as CDA and Digitalized CF, in enhancing pronunciation instruction and offer valuable insights for language educators, materials developers, syllabus designers, and policymakers. Embracing dynamic assessment practices and integrating technology into language education policies can foster more effective and engaging language learning experiences for EFL learners.

        The purpose of this research was to investigate the effectiveness of the environmental education program based on the lecture and film screening method and the combined method (speech and film screening) on the environmental skills of Iran's continental shelf oil company employees (case study: Siri Island employees). The statistical population included all 600 employees of the Iranian continental shelf oil company, Siri Island, of which 45 people were randomly selected and placed in three groups. This research is a semi-experimental method and a 20-item environmental skills questionnaire was used to collect the required data. The reliability of the questionnaire was also estimated using Cronbach's alpha coefficient of 0.85. Two levels of descriptive and inferential statistics of covariance analysis were used to analyze the data. The results showed that the scores of environmental skills were normal and in line with the hypothesis of the research which was based on the comparison of lecture teaching methods, film showing and combined method (lecture and film showing method). There was a significant difference in the scores of the three training methods in the post-exam stage, that is, the training was able to increase the environmental skills scores of the employees of Iran's continental shelf oil company, Siri Island, in the post-exam stage.

        &nbsp; Abstract The interactive effectiveness between Spiritual Intelligence (SQ) and life skills training (LST) on improving attitudes of university students to life skills were carried out in a randomized block designs study. At first, 166 male &amp; female university students were randomly selected out of 11370 students at Islamic Azad University in Borujerd. Then attitude to life skills questionnaire (Ahadi, 1386), and Spiritual Intelligence questionnaire (Naseri, 1386) were filled out by the subjects. On the basis of the results of the Spiritual Intelligence questionnaire (higher or lower than the mean), the subjects were divided into four groups. There were two experimental groups, one with a higher score on SQ and the other with a lower score on SQ and two control groups under the same situation. The experimental groups in two separate classes of students with higher and lower score on SQ took part in 16 sessions of 3 hours of the LST, in a time span of 8 weeks. At the end of the course, subjects filled out the attitude to life skills questionnaire as the post test. Finally, after four months in order to figure out the stability or possible changes in the results, once more, in a follow- up study, the attitude to life skills questionnaire was administered. The results of statistical test of Independent-Samples t-test indicated that LST have a significant effect on improving attitudes of university students to life skills, though in an interaction with SQ, the two aforementioned factors have no significant effect on those.

        Having a child that developing a relationship with is difficult, affects the entire family system. The purpose of this study was to study the effect of communication skills training program on parental self-efficacy of mothers, who have children suffering from attention-deficit/hyperactivity. For this purpose, in a quasi-experimental design with pre-test, post-test and control group, 26 mothers of children aged 6 to 12 years with attention-deficit / hyperactivity were selected, in a&nbsp; purposeful way. They were randomly divided into experimental and control groups of 13 each. At first, parents were evaluated in terms of self- efficacy, after that the experimental group underwent 8 sessions of communication skills training in which each session lasted 90-minute.At the end, both groups were tested in terms of self- efficacy. The results of analysis of univariate covariance indicated that communication skills training program increased parental self-efficacy in women's of experimental group. There is a significant difference between the experimental and control groups in increasing parental self-efficacy variable. It seems, low self-efficacy of mothers with children suffering from attention-deficit / hyperactivity leads them not to have a good feeling in terms of their expectations and their perception of how they can act as a pleasant and effective parent. To enhance these mothers feelings of self-efficacy gaining knowledge and information in the field of effective methods of child care; besides an effective and desirable interaction and communication with their child are needed.

        Writing academically which has recently attracted much attention in the field of applied linguistics, is a complex process for many candidates. Among the four language skills, writing is more tied to selves-theory since it needs ideology transfer, the main element of the theory. This paper made an effort to examine the effect of training on IELTS writing skill on Iranian EFL students' construction of the possible selves in the future. In doing so, an experimental study was employed and 90 candidates of both genders were chosen to participate based on cluster sampling method. The instrument of the study was a related questionnaire (Zadshir et al., 2020) which was used to check the expected possible selves of the participants. Descriptive statistics and Multi-Variate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) were run to analyze data. Findings of the study indicated that expected and responsible selves were stronger than feared selves among the participants after treatment. That is to say, training on IELTS writing skills had a remarkable effect on Iranian EFL students’ construction of the possible selves and the dimensions of the possible selves in the future.
