Introduction: Recent studies showed the effect of socio-cultural context on how to set privacy. The aim of this study was to investigate the semantic structure of privacy in Iranian culture.
Method: In a cross-sectional study 100 (40 people in the first phase and 60 people in the second phase) were selected using convenience sampling method. In the first phase through producing the associative terms task, 9 most-frequent words was extracted that were associated with privacy. In the second phase the participants were evaluated the pair relationship between these words with using judged-similarity task.
Results: Correspondence analysis results indicate that the mapping of components in two dimensions. So that extracted components related with privacy on its individualistic and collectivistic basis. While the individualistic components express the universal principles of privacy, collectivistic components is a sign of cultural influences in defining of privacy.
Conclusion: Results are discussed in terms of the universal and culture-bond basis of privacy.

Findings: Findings showed that the observed correlation coefficient between social development and social support with students’ resilience was significant at the level of 0/0001 with a degree of freedom of 378 times. It indicates that the more social support students receive, the more their social growth increases. There It indicates that a significant relationship between resilience and social support, in other words, the more social support students receive, the more their resilience increases. Conclusion: Findings of the research indicate that increasing the resilience of students with the improvement in social support and social development level is important, we can use the findings to formulate programs to increase student resilience.

To collect data, Wales’s meta-cognitive beliefs questionnaire (MCQ-30), Fifth Mindfulness Knowledge Questionnaire (FFMQ), Negative Fear Scale (BFNE-S) and Social anxiety Conor Questionnaire (SPI) were used. Then, the data were analyzed using Pearson's correlation coefficient and stepwise regression analysis. Results: The results of Pearson correlation coefficient indicated that there was a significant relationship between metacognitive beliefs, mindfulness and fear of evaluation with social anxiety in adolescents. Stepwise regression analysis confirms the role of predictor variables in social anxiety. In general, meta-cognitive beliefs, mindfulness and fear of evaluating predicted 17 percent of social anxiety changes in teens. Conclusion: It seems that metacognitive beliefs, mindfulness and fear of negative evaluation have an independent role in social anxiety in adolescents.

Introduction: The purpose of this study was to investigate the causal relationship of thin ideal internalization with body dissatisfaction with mediating role of social comparison. Method: 351 female undergraduate students of Kashan University who were selected by simple random sampling method participated in this research. In order to collect data the Iowa-Netherlands comparison orientation measure (INCOM), Physical Appearance Comparison Scale-Revised (PACS-R), Ideal Body Stereotype Scale-Revised (IBIS-R) and the Body Shape Questionnaire (BSQ) were used. Data analysis was performed using structural equation modeling (SEM) and SPSS-21 and AMOS-21 software packages. Results: The findings indicated that the model fitted the data relatively proper. Better fit and more meaningful results were obtained through correlating the errors of one path. The results also showed that there are significant relationships between the thin ideal internalization and social comparison (both general and appearance-related), and between social comparison (both general and appearance-related) and body dissatisfaction. The findings also supported the mediating role of appearance-related social comparison in the relationship of thin ideal internalization with body dissatisfaction. Conclusion: According to the findings of this research, considering the causal factors regarding thin ideal internalization and appearance-related social comparison could be beneficial in prevention of body dissatisfaction.

Self-efficacy is a person's confidence in his ability to cope with difficult situations. Method:The present study in term of purpose and data collection is a correlation study. For this purpose, 124 female teachers from Kahrizak city were selected by cluster sampling. Participants responded to general self-efficacy, self-resiliency, gender discrimination events and gender role questionnaires. For data analysis, Pearson correlation coefficient and step-by-step multiple regression were used. Results:The results showed that the resiliency, gender schemas and self-efficacy have a positive and significant relationship, and the gender discrimination events has a negative and significant relationship with self-efficacy. Resiliency, gender discrimination events throughout life, and male gender role schemas could predict 31% of self-efficacy variance.

Method: The present study uses a survey research (with correlation design). The statistical population consisted of all 7000 students of AzarbaijanShahidMadani University in academic year 2017-2018. The sample size was estimated using Cochran formula as 364 participants who were selected via stratified sampling method. The data collection instruments were the Self-Report Vandalism Scale developed byAliverdinia et al. (2014), the Adherence to Values Scale developed by Rasoulzadeh Aghdam et al. (2015) and the Sense of Anomie Questionnaire of Naderi et al. (2010). Statistical analysis of the research findings was conducted via the Pearson correlation test, multivariate regression, and structural equation modeling (SEM) techniques. Results: The results of the research indicated that there is a significant inverse correlation between adherence to values (family, religious, and social-cultural values) and students vandalism, while there is a direct correlation between the rate of anomie feeling (economic, social, cultural, political and anomie) and vandalism. In addition, there is a direct weak correlation between the use of students from the Internet and their vandalism. Moreover, independent variables in the research regression model can explain 21% of the variations in students’ vandalism.

The purpose of this study was to explain the effect of religiosity& parenting style on meaning in life by mediating of identity style in female adolescent through structural equations modelling. This is a correlation study using causal modeling. The statistical population of the study was 4476 students in the third year of high school. A sample of 200 people was selected through multistage cluster random sampling. . Measurement tools included a religiosity questionnaire (Glock & Stark,1966), identity style (Berzonsky, 1989), Parenting Style (Baumrind,1991), and meaning in life questionnaire (Steger et al., 2006). Data were analyzed using structural equation modeling approach. . The findings indicated that the direct effect of the variables of religiosity, parenting style and identity style, on the meaning variable in life was significant. Also, the indirect effect of religiosity variable on a meaning in life is significant if the variable of identity style is mediator. Consequently, meaning in life is anticipated through religiosity, parenting style and identity style.
