The aim of this study was to predict self-efficacy of girls based on personality traits of their mothers. Method of study was correlational. The sample consisted of 351 females who were selected by random clustered sampling from high school students in Alborz province. Research instruments were the NEO Personality Inventory (MacCrae and Costa, 1985) and Self-efficacy Scale (Sherer at.al, 1982). The result showed that conscientiousness of mothers was the only predictive variable which could predict daughters&#39 self-efficacy. Regression coefficient of self-efficacy (&beta=0.226) showed a positive relationship between mothers conscientiousness with their daughters self-efficacy (P < 0.002). Also the average score of girls with regression coefficient (&beta=0.330) represented a significant and positive correlation and their self-efficacy (P < 0.0001), and maternal age with regression coefficient (&beta=-0.105) indicated a significant and negative correlation with daughters’ self- efficacy (P < 0.37). Therefore, considering the effect of both mothers’ role of responsibility and low maternal age gap with daughters on the self-efficacy of their daughters, it is necessary to increase self-efficacy of daughters by enriching the responsibility resources of mothers and encouraging mothers to have children at young age.

To analyze the data, Covariance analysis (ANCOVA) and LSD were used. The results indicated that there is a difference between the effectiveness of Teaching Self-Regulation, Neuro - Verbal planning (NLP), and combinational strategies on Academic Motivation. Also, the results indicated that combinational (p < 0/005), self-regulation (p < 0/005), and NLP (p < 0/005)strategies had the more effects on Academic motivation of the students respectively. The results indicated that the effectiveness of combinational and self-regulation strategies on academic motivation of male high school students was higher than female high school students, But, no significant difference was found in the effectiveness of neuro-verbal planning on academic motivation of male and female high school students.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of cognitive avoidance and fear of failure by mediating difficulty in regulating emotion in predicting academic procrastination. The method of this research is correlation. The statistical population of this study was secondary school students of Bastak. 234 students (122 males and 112 females) were selected using random multistage cluster sampling method. data were collected using Sexton & Dugas’ Cognitive Avoidance Questionnaire (2008), Conroy, Willow & Metzler’s fear of failure Scale (2002), Gratz & Roemer’s Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale (2004) and Solomon & Rothblum’s Academic Procrastination Scale (1984). The data were analyzed using methods of multiple regression analysis and path analysis by SPSS 20 and Amos 20 software. Data analysis showed that difficulties in emotion regulation subscale including non acceptance of Emotional response, difficulties engaging in goal directed behavior and limited access of emotion regulation strategies mediated to some extent between cognitive avoidance and fear of failure with academic procrastination. Therefore, teachers, trainers and consultants to reduce academic procrastination should challenge with negative and maladaptive cognitive and emotional beliefs(Cognitive Avoidance & fear of failure) and, on the other, to replace more appropriate strategies for management and regulation of emotions.

This study aimed to compare the effect of training choice theory principles and training ACT principles on self-differentiation in high school students. The method was experimental with pre-test, post-test with control group and follow-up. The statistical population consisted all high school students in Rasht in academic year of 2019-2018. After assessing, 45 students who had self-differentiation below the cut-point were chosen and then randomly divided into three groups of 15, two intervention groups and a control group. For the first intervention group, the choice theory and for the second group ACT principals were taught in 8 sessions and the control group did not receive any training. After 3 month groups had follow-up. To determine the effect of the intervention program, a pre-test, post-test and follow-up were conducted using the Skowron & Schmitt (2003) Self-differentiation Test. Data were analyzed using multivariate covariance (MANCOVA) analysis. The findings showed that intervention groups were significantly different in the post-test, compared to the control group in self-differentiation. The rate of self-differentiation increase after intervention and the size of this increase was higher in the choice theory group. The result showed that choice theory training has greater effect than ACT training on increasing self-differentiation. Manuscript profile

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of parenting styles on conduct disorder (CD) mediated by emotional and cognitive empathy in junior high school students. The statistical population included all male high school students in Kermanshah in the academic in 2020-2021, which was 234 students who obtained the highest scores in the pediatric symptoms questionnaire (parent form) (Gadow & Sprafkin, 2007) and They had the most symptoms of conduct disorder, were selected as a sample group based on multi-stage cluster sampling method, and participants completed the Alabama΄s parenting styles (Frick, 1991), the Baron-Cohen empathy quotient scale (Baron-Cohen & Wheelwrigh, 2004). Structural equation modeling on LISREL software was used to answer the hypotheses. The results of data analysis showed that direct and indirect path coefficients are significant in the research model (P <0.001). According to the findings of this study, efficient and inefficient parenting styles and emotional and cognitive empathy have a direct and significant effect on conduct disorder and efficient and inefficient parenting styles also have a direct and significant effect on emotional and cognitive empathy. Also, effective parenting style (positive parenting components and father participation) and inefficient parenting style (components of authority, poor supervision and corporal punishment) mediate emotional and cognitive empathy on students' conduct disorder indirectly. Based on the results of this study, it can be concluded that proper communication between parent and child enables the person to achieve emotional development and increases the ability to empathy and community friendly behavior in adolescents.

This study aimed to investigate the effect of emotion regulation, anger rumination, and self-criticism on social maladaptation by the mediating role of self-compassion and psychological flexibility in high school students of Ahvaz. The research design was descriptive-correlational through structural equation modeling (SEM). The statistical population of the study included all high school students in Ahvaz in the academic year 2020-2021 (In total, 49,744 students). From this population, 850 students were selected by the multi-stage cluster sampling method to test the research hypotheses. The instruments used in this study included the Gross and John’ Emotion Regulation Scale (2003), Sukhodolsky et al.’ Anger Rumination Scale (2001), Thompson and Zuroff’ Levels of Self-Criticism Scale (2004), Neff’ Self-Compassion Scale (2003), Bond et al.’ Acceptance and Action Questionnaire (2011), and Weitzman’ Social Development Scale (1990). The goodness of fit of the proposed model was examined through structural equation modeling (SEM), using SPSS-24 and Amos-24 software packages. The indirect effects were tested by the Bootstrap procedure. The results showed a good fit of the final model with the data. The results showed that emotional regulation, anger rumination, and self-criticism have direct effects on students' social maladaptation (p<0.05). The findings also showed that self-compassion and psychological flexibility mediate the effects of predictor variables on social maladaptation (p<0.05). According to the research results, emotional regulation, anger rumination, self-criticism, self-compassion, and psychological flexibility are the most important variables affecting adolescents' social maladaptation that should be considered when formulating and implementing interventions.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of academic buoyancy and academic self- handicapping on life satisfaction of second high school students through the mediation of adolescent perception of parenting educational methods by path analysis. The statistical population included students of Arak city who were studying mathematics, experimental and humanities in the Second Period public high schools and were selected by multi-stage cluster sampling method. The number of sample people was considered as 719 students, considering the probability of failure in completing the questionnaires. Data collection tools included Academic Boyancy Questionnaire (Dehghanizadeh & Hossein Chari), Academic Self- handicapping (ASHS) ( Schwinger & Stiensmeier-Pelster), Multidimensional Students’ Life Satisfaction (MSLSS) (Huebner) and Adolescent Perception of Parenting Educational Methods (POPS)( Robbins). The obtained data were analyzed by the structural equation model of latent variable type. In order to verify the model's fit, the values of the ratio of chi-square to degree of freedom, (RMSEA), (CFI), (NFI), (TLI), (IFI) and Cronbach's alpha were reported that indicate appropriate model reliability. Findings showed that buoyancy and academic self- handicapping have a direct and significant effect on life satisfaction and adolescent perception of parenting educational methods. The direct effect of the mediating variable on life satisfaction was also confirmed. By doing this research, by observing educational problems or lack of mental health and identifying the factors affecting it in students, appropriate programs can be implemented to increase life satisfaction in students.

Using instructional games in vocabulary learning is beneficial, but their effects in the Iraqi EFL context have been overlooked. This study investigated the effects of instructional games on Iraqi primary school students’ vocabulary learning and retention. To fulfill the objectives of the study, a quasi-experimental study with a pretest-posttest design was adopted. The present study's participants were 40 Iraqi primary school students selected based on a convenience sampling. The participants were divided into two groups, one experimental (N= 20) and a control group (N=20). The students in the experimental group (EG) received vocabulary instruction in the form of game-based teaching. The control group (CG) was instructed using conventional teaching procedures. In this study, a textbook (Family and Friends 2) was used as the material, and two tests were utilized as the measurement instruments. It was found that the group of Iraqi primary school students who were instructed through the games considerably outperformed the group of students who received the traditional teaching in the classroom. Furthermore, the results revealed that the Iraqi primary school students who received vocabulary through instructional games had much better vocabulary retention than those who underwent the traditional teaching methods. The findings might have some implications for the material developers and EFL teachers in Iraq. Manuscript profile

The aim of the present research was to investigate about the comparison of misunderstanding of the third grade high school students and B.A and M.A students about the concept of electricity. The research method was descriptive survey. The population of the study was consisted of all high school students in Tehran, all students of Computer Engineering (Software Engineering), the students of Information Technology (B.A) and the students of solid-state physics (M.A) in Tehran Payame Noor University, Robatkarim, in academic year 1391-1392.285 participants consisted the sample, including 125 students from high school (68 from math major and 57 from empirical science major), 130 undergraduate students (72 Computer Engineering students and 58 Information Technology students) and 30 M.A students (Solid-State physics). A diagnostic test comprising six questions with multiple-choice format was used to collect the required data. To ensure the content validity of the instrument, a panel of 20 teachers of physics verified the questionnaire. The reliability was confirmed by Cronbach's alpha as 0.87.The test was given in a normal condition with no in advance awareness. After the test was run, the frequency, frequency percentage, the tables and corresponding graphs were used. To assess how well students understood, the conceptual evaluation method was applied. In this method, the options were categorized in four types as: full understanding, partial understanding, misunderstanding and lack of understanding.The findings showed new misunderstandings about the concepts of static electricity. Based on these findings, it seems so necessary that physics curricula and instructional materials which are about to be recently revised by the Ministry of Education be taken into more considerations so as to organize the concepts of static electricity and its modeling in related textbooks.

The aim of this research was investigating understanding of Tehran’s second &lrm;elementary school students of the fraction concept (part-whole subconstruct) based on APOS and &lrm;SOLO theories. This study’s method was descriptive-survey &lrm;method, its statistical population was Tehran’s second elementary school students in the academic &lrm;year 1397-1398 and its sample was 598 people of the statistical population that selected by multistage sampling method. A test with an unusual task used for collecting data. The content validity of the research tools were confirmed by experts and scholars of mathematics education, and the reliability of the research tools was obtained based on Cronbach's alpha of 0.7. Results of this &lrm;study showed that students have a limited understanding of fraction’s concept and they have common misconceptions. The most common misconceptions &lrm;found include: (1) Disregarding the requirement of &lrm;equal parts in part- whole &lrm;subconstruct; 2- Understanding fraction in part- whole subconstruct as &lrm;the part-to-part ratio & 3- &lrm;Using approximate partitioning &lrm;to determine the exact fraction of the specified part.&lrm; Analyzing the responses based on the APOS theory also revealed students did not have ability to use this concept in dealing with unusual situations. In analyzing &lrm;the responses based on the Solo model, more than 60% of the responses were &lrm;in the multistructural level. The suggestions of this research &lrm;are not to over-emphasize the part -whole subconstruct, creating &lrm;equal opportunities for developing other subconstruct&lrm;s of fraction and emphasizing on &lrm;conceptual learning of procedures and algorithms relative to fraction &lrm;concept in content and &lrm;opportunities presented to students.&lrm; Manuscript profile

One of the important criteria for assessing the level of success or failure of educational system is the students’ academic achievement; increasing the academic achievement and reducing the level of their academic failure are among the most important goals of this system. The aim of current research was to investigate the relationship between basic psychological needs (autonomy, competence and relatedness), learning strategies (deep and surface) and students' academic achievement in a form of casual model. 285 high school students in Salmas city were selected using stratified sampling method and answered to learning strategies and basic psychological needs questionnaires. Path analysis was use for data analysis. The findings revealed that tested model had sufficient fit and predicted 23% of changes of academic achievement, 14% deep learning strategies and 13% of variance of surface learning strategies. Deep learning strategies had positive and significant effect on academic achievement. But the effect of surface learning strategies on academic achievement was negative and significant. Need for autonomy and competence had positive and significant effect on Deep learning strategies. But the effect of need for relatedness on this variable wasn't significant. Also, the effect of need for relatedness on surface learning strategies was positive and significant. Research findings showed that both motivational (e.g. basic psychological needs) and cognitive variables (e.g. learning strategies) have important roles in prediction of students' academic achievement.

The aim of the present study was to examine the relationship between academic self-efficacy, academic self-handicapping, and gender. Three hundred and eighty seven students of Tehran public high school in fourth grade (199 females, 188 males) completed the Academic Self-Handicapping Scale (ASHS; Midgley et al., 1996) and the Academic Self-Efficacy Scale (ASES; McIlroy & Bunting, 2002). The sample was selected by the cluster random sampling. The data were analyzed using Pearson correlation coefficient, Fisher’s Z test and multivariate analysis of variance. The results indicated that academic self-efficacy was negatively related with academic self-handicapping and gender couldn’t play a moderating role in the relationship between these two variables. The results also indicated that female students reported significantly more academic self-efficacy than males and male students reported significantly more academic self-handicapping than females.
