A sense of school belonging is an important psychological trait that affects on other components of schooling. The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of group gestalt therapy on the sense of school belonging in tenth grade students in District 4 of Tehran. The present study was a quasi-experimental study with pre-test and post-test design with control group and follow-up test. The statistical population included 10th grade male students in Tehran's 4th district in 2018-19. The final subjects(n=17) were randomly assigned to experimental (n = 9) and control (n = 8) groups. The experimental group underwent 8 sessins of group gestalt therapy and the control group did not receive any intervention. Then, after the test and also after 3 months, follow-up test was received from both groups and the results were compared with each other. The results of analysis of covariance showed that in general, the sense of scjool belonging in the experimental group is more than the control group (P = 0.001 and F = 19.08). Also, the effectiveness of the intervention was stable after 3 months (P = 0.001 and F = 46.72). Based on the findings of the present study, it can be concluded that group gestalt therapy is effective in increasing the sense of school belonging of tenth grade male students and this effect has a significant stability; Therefore, this intervention method can be used to improve the sense of school belonging in tenth grade students.

he purpose of this study is to investigate the national identity symbols of high school history and social science textbooks. To do this, the content analysis method was employed and entire pictures and questions of history and social science textbooks used in 1388-1389 were analyzed. The findings of this study indicated that national identity symbols have not been focused properly neither, in educational organization which has essential role in students' identity access process nor in textbooks which are the center of attention in schools. Although the long presence of students in school and present assignments in textbooks are very good opportunities for managers and educational planners to be used in identity giving process, but it is not used properly. In a society where the non school books have no place in family basket, attractive content of textbooks would be very effective to present facts like national identity and to attract teenagers to study these books.
