Introduction: In the growing number of divorces in Iran, the present study aimed to investigate the prediction of divorce adjustment through an emotional adjustment emphasizing gender considerations. Methods: The present study was a correlation study, and data were collected through questionnaires, field study, and library. The statistical population was all divorced women and men in Tehran city in 2017, and the sampling method was purposeful. The sample included 112 divorced women and 134 divorced men with an age range of 20-40 years. For data collection, the Fisher Divorce Adjustment Scale (FDAS) (1) and Emotional Adjustment Measure (EMA) (2) were used. Pearson correlation coefficient, multivariate regression, and multivariate analysis of variance method were used for data analysis. Results: The results showed that there is a positive and significant correlation between emotional adjustment and divorce adjustment (p<0.01, r=.29), and men have higher scores than women in these factors; also, emotional adjustment was a significant predictor of divorce adjustment (β=0.720, p<0.01). Conclusion: The results of this study reveal a series of post-divorce crises requiring management and restoration by divorced subjects. Although the challenges of life after divorce affect both sexes, women are faced with more harm in post-divorce time due to gender barriers. Therefore, programs to help increase emotional compatibility after divorce is recommended. Also, clarification of the divorce phenomenon is better to be considered from different aspects.

The Impact

The present research was aimed to study the impact of communication skills training on the adjustment of opiate addicts. The research was quasi experimental. Statistical population consisted of all addicts in Tehran in 2014-15. Single-stage cluster sampling method was used in the present research so that one of the rehabilitation camps in West of Tehran was selected. Afterwards, 30 addicts were chosen as a sample size using simple random sampling method and were randomly assigned to experimental and control groups. Data collection was carried out based on Bell Adjustment Questionnaire (1961). The reliability was investigated using Cronbach's alpha and the obtained value was equal to 0.84. Moreover, content validity was employed in order to measure the validity of the test which the questionnaire was approved by the relevant experts and scholars in this regard. Analysis of the obtained data was performed using SPSS software in two parts of descriptive and inferential (Covariance Analysis). Findings indicated that communication skills training leads to an increase in the level of adjustment of addicts in every five dimensions of social adjustment, family adjustment, emotional adjustment, physical adjustment and occupational adjustment.

The Impact

In today's world, human capital is considered as the highest and most valuable asset of an organization, which affects the profits and losses of any company. The organizations that exist in these societies must be able to utilize human resources effectively. Job rotation is one of the management measures in the field of human resource management. It can create a creative, ideal, and secure organization that ensures commitment, knowledge transfer, skills acquisition, innovation, creativity, experience, job satisfaction, enthusiasm, exhaustion reduction, and human capital growth. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of job rotation system on work motivation (studied in the region of two gas transfer operations). The present study is a correlation from the field and in terms of purpose and nature of application and in terms of descriptive-survey method and in terms of cross-sectional time. The statistical population of the study is 850 personnel (managers, experts and employees) of the region of two gas transmission operations. Using Cochran's formula, the sample size for limited communities is 285 people. The statistical population of the study consists of heterogeneous groups (formal and informal forces, managers and employees) using stratified random sampling method. In order to collect data, a researcher-made questionnaire with 20 items and a standard job motivation questionnaire with 17 items were used. The questionnaire is divided based on a five-point Likert scale. Reliability and validity were calculated and the value of 0.881 was obtained, which indicates the appropriate reliability of the questionnaires. To investigate the relationship and research hypotheses, Pearson correlation coefficient and regression, SPSS software and LISREL software were tested. The results show that the dimensions of job rotation such as human capital development and changes in human capital are related to work enthusiasm. Pearson correlation coefficient is 0.842 and 0.368, respectively, which indicates a good correlation. Also, the development and changes of human capital have a significant effect on job motivation and the standard beta value was 0.343 and 0.281, respectively, and all research hypotheses have been confirmed.

Abstract Thorough understanding of interactions between all factors involved in soybean plant cultivation process is needed to increase the yield. This study is aimed to determine which interaction has the highest correlation according to the Pearson correlation coefficient, to define a certain model for said interaction, and to confirm the identicality of all samples that were observed using destructive sampling method. After being tested using Pearson correlation coefficient, the highest r value is 0,81 which is between plant height and number of leaves, proving they are highly related. Both parameters were simulated in several different ways until it was found that number of leaves variable is best described as function of plant height variable, the equation is y1 = 0,85x1 + c1 where y1 represents number of leaves and x1 represents plant height. Identicality between all plants is not confirmed, thus destructive sampling method is not recommended to be applied for similar studies.

Background: The aim of this correlational study was to investigate the multiple relationships between anxiety sensitivity, social support, and perception of pain with life expectancy. Methods: The statistical population consisted of all older adults in Isfahan (males and females) in spring 2016, of whom 250 individuals were selected by convenience sampling method from different places. In order to measure the variables, Hope Based on Islamic Sources, Perceived Social Support, Anxiety Sensitivity, and the Perception of Pain questionnaires were used. Data analysis was conducted by Pearson correlation and simultaneous multiple regression analysis. Results: The results indicated that there was a significant positive relationship between anxiety sensitivity, social support, and the perception of pain with life expectancy (P<0.01). Conclusion: This result implies that social protection enhancement, not only increases hope but also affects the fear of one’s anxiety observed by others, the perception of pain, and the fear of lack of cognitive control.

Introduction: In recent decades, researchers in the field of creativity, have become interested in recognizing the factors associated with the growth and development of creativity in children. Therefore, the purpose of this descriptive, correlational study is to detect the role of intelligence profiles and executive functions (selective attention, switching) in predicting creativity components. Materials and Methods: The statistical population included kids aged 13-15 years living in Isfahan City, Iran in 2015, and so 150 kids were selected by purposive sampling method. The study data were collected using the Delis–Kaplan Executive Function System (D-KEFS) CW simple Stroop test, Gardner’s multiple intelligence questionnaire, and Torrance’s creativity questionnaire, and analyzed by simultaneous multiple regression analysis and the Pearson correlation method in SPSS V. 22. Results: There were significant positive relationships  between  intrapersonal  intelligence and fluency component, as well as, between logical-mathematical intelligence and flexibility component. The results also showed a significant positive relationship between bodily- kinesthetic intelligence and naturalist intelligence with the originality  component.  There were positive and significant relationships between logical-mathematical, bodily-kinesthetic, intrapersonal, and naturalist intelligence with the elaboration component, as well as, between the selective attention and the fluency component. Conclusion: The characteristics of intelligence and selective attention can predict the components of creativity
