The aim of this study was to investigate the psychometric properties of the online self-regulated learning questionnaire (Lau, 2021) in students of Tehran universities. The Chinese version of the self-regulated online learning questionnaire (COSRQ) consists of seven subscales: goal setting, time management, environmental structuring, effort regulation, cognitive/ monitoring strategies, help seeking, and self-evaluation. Participants in this study were 453 students of different stages of public universities who were selected by random sampling. Participants responded to questionnaires on self-regulated online learning questionnaire (COSRQ), academic engagement (RAEQ), motivated strategies for learning questionnaire (MSLQ), and the academic procrastination scale (PASS), provided online. The psychometric adequacy of the questionnaire was assessed in several steps including item analysis, exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, convergent validity, divergent validity and reliability coefficient. The results of item analysis showed that all items of the questionnaire are sufficient in terms of descriptive features. Exploratory factor analysis by identifying 5 items that were in the unrelated factor led to the identification of six factors. Confirmatory factor analysis also confirmed this six-factor structure. The results showed that this questionnaire has convergent and divergent validity and good reliability.

The present study aimed to construct and validate the coping style questionnaire in the feacing of the corona epidemic. The statistical population of the study included all people living in Lorestan province who faced the effects of coronavirus epidemic in 1398. The sample was 384 people based on the Cochran's formula, which was selected as a sample of men and women in relatively equal proportions. For data analysis, factor analysis; included exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis based on the structural equation model was used. In the findings , the reliability of the questionnaire was confirmed based on Cronbach's alpha. The correlation between anxiety and coping styles;Confrontation, Escape and avoidance, Emotional distancing and responsibility was 0.62, 0.37, -0.38 and -0.57; which indicates the Critical validity of the questionnaire. The results of exploratory analysis showed that the adequacy of sampling and the fact that the questionnaire was eight factors were confirmed. Also, Confirmatory factor analysis confirmed the results of content validity and exploratory analysis based on Multidimensional construct of coping styles questionnaire in the face of the Corona epidemic. the finding showed that the constracted questionnaire in this study is a proper tool for determining the type of individual reactions in the crisis of epidemic diseases such as Coronavirus; by measuring the types of coping styles in feacing with Coronavirus epidemic,

The society development counts on the kinds of activities which perform in universities. Teachers play an important role in universities’ development and finally the society development. Studying teachers’ motivation, behavior causes, and efficient factors can affect performance improvement, and educational system development. The purpose of this research was to study the scale factor structure of teachers' vocation duty motivation. The study method was descriptive. The statistical population was 262 teachers in Islamic Azad University, Central Branch. The sampling method is random. The result of exploratory factor analysis showed all scale factors in the society studied and confirmatory factor analysis indicated data values. Cronbach's Coefficient Alpha showed that the validity of Motivation Scale of Teachers’ Vocation duty is acceptable. At last, the result showed that there was a positive relation between teachers’ vocation duty motivation factors and self-efficacy. There is a negative relation with job burnout. This study created new motivation concept and also its assessment tool in higher education system.

The goal of this study was to determine ongoing obstacles of smart School development from managers and teachers’ viewpoints. In order to collect data, a researcher-made questionnaire was used. The kinds of questionnaires were determined and brushed up by experts. Exploratory and confirmatory factors were used to analyze the data. Koroti Battery test, as a pretest, was used and KMO test was used to investigate accurate sampling and data (KMO= 0.80, Koroti Battery. Test= 2335.13). Extracting exploratory factor, 5 factors revealed ongoing obstacles of smart school development by dint of calculation of %46/23 variance. The results showed human resources, hardware, software, culture and management as taking smart of schools play role basically.

Objective: This research examined factorial invariance of Child Behavior Checklist by using confirmatory factor analysis. Method: The form was administered on a sample of non-referred students (697 boys and 650 girls) which were selected from primary, secondary and high schools of the city of Tehran. The sample was selected by means of multistage stratified random method. To estimate parameters and fitting a 8 correlated• syndrome model, weighted least square (WLS) function was used. The adequacy and fitting the model was assessed by RMSEA, SRMR, CFI, TLI, GFI, and AGFI indices. Results: The findings indicated that Achenbach 's 8 correlated factor model has good fit with data. This finding provides evidence about internal construct validity of CBCL. In addition, the results showed none of syndromes overlapped completely, indicating that syndromes were empirically distinguishable and possessed discriminate validity. Conclusion: The results of this study supported filling of the Achenbach model to our data and CBCL could be used lo assess emotional and behavioral problems of children aged 6-18 years.
