This research was administered with the aim of studying the role of educational ethic in relationship between educational justice and injustice with educational cheating. Research statistical population was the psychology students of Islamic Azad University, Esfahan branch, Iran. Research instruments consisted of Golparvar’s (2010) educational ethic, educational justice and injustice, and educational cheating. Data which were gathered from research questionnaires were analyzed using structural equation modeling (SEM). Results revealed that for educational cheating structural model, there is a positive significant relationship between educational justice with educational ethics, and between educational injustice with educational cheating, but there is a negative significant relationship between educational ethic and educational cheating (p<0.01). The results of current research revealed that educational justice through reinforcing educational ethic can decrease educational cheating. In contrast educational injustice can directly reinforce educational cheating.

The spontaneous language sample forms an important part of the language evaluation protocol. Language samples give us some useful information about how children interact with others, and evaluation of speech performed regarding continuous speech sample. The purpose of this study is to compare of linguistic structures of Conversation(CV), Freeplay(FP), and Story Generation(SG) as Methods of Language Sample Elicitation. 30 semnanian 5-year-old boys, who have a normal development in language and speech, were selected among active kinder garden throught the town by cluster sampling method. Their language samples elicited by these 3 language sample elicitation methods in 15 minutes. Linguistic structures of these language samples, with use of 3 quality evaluation methods of speech including 1. number of utterances, 2. mean length of the utterance(MLU), and 3. lexical variety, are assessed. Means of these structures are analyzed by dependent ANOVA. The result show no significant difference regarding number of elicited utterances among these 3 language sample methods. Story generation, in comparison of FP and CV, elicits more MLU, and conversation, in comparison of FP and SG, elicits more lexical variety. Therefore we can conclude that in clinical evaluation, when there is more MLU, we have to use story generation, and when there is more lexical variety, we have to use conversation method for elicitation.

This study is designed to investigate the relationship between religious practice and coping styles in students of religious and secular high schools and discover the impact of approaches taken by schools to religious education on the students’ religiosity and application of religion in their lives. Therefore, two religious and two secular non-profit high schools were selected through accessible proportional stratified sampling, and the students completed questioners measuring religious practice (Golzari, 2000) and coping styles (Frydenberg & Lewis, 1994). The results showed that there was no significant difference between students of secular and religious high schools in coping styles, yet some significant differences were found in coping strategies between these students. There were also significant differences between the students of secular and religious high schools in religious practice, so the mean of students of religious high schools were higher than the students of secular high schools. These differences demonstrate that students of religious high schools are in better situation because of their high scores in religious practice and some coping strategies.

ackground: The Cognitive style is mainly peculiar to theoretical and academic descriptions with bipolar dimensions. These styles are composed of field dependent and field independent ones which are not constant but current. Objective: The present paper aims to clarify the relationship between the cognitive styles and students' performance in writing response and multiple-choice evaluations. Method: The research methodology is applied in its objective and descriptive in data collection. The target population of this study comprised all students of Mahabad Islamic Azad Universit in the academic year of 1387-88. Among them, 280 have been selected by faculty and sex through stratified random sampling. In connection with the cognitive style, EFT, the learning styles questionnaire has been used to collect the required data and for the students' performance measurement in multiple-choice and writing response evaluations the two parallel forms, quadruple response form and writing response form have been employed. Results: The results revealed that there is a positive and direct relationship between field independent cognitive style and the students’ performance in writing response evaluation, but there is no relationship between field dependent cognitive style and the students’ performance in multiple choice evaluations. Also, there is a significant difference between students from such fields as human, basic, agricultural, and technical sciences due to learning styles. Finally there was a positive relationship between the male and female students’ learning styles. Conclusion: Cognitive styles (field independency and field dependency) should be considered while assessing students' academic performance using multiple-choices and writing response tests

The present research has been carried out with the aim of evaluating Farsi book’s contents of elementary sixth- grade based upon Gilford’s creativity factors including memory cognition, convergent and divergent thought, and evaluative judgment. The statistics society of the entire Farsi book’s contents contains text and test in the academic year 1391-92. The collection tool of this research’s data is the researcher- made contents analysis form based on Gilford’s creativity indexes. Its justifiability has been gained by getting professors’ opinions of study planning & educational psychology and tool permanency from integrating and operating definition of Gilford’s creativity indexes and selecting 0.20 contents of the above mentioned book through using Cronbach’s alpha was assessed 0.85 percent. The survey of the adjustment rate context in text with Gilford’s creativity indexes showed that cognitive level with an explanation for .0.94 of the book’s contents had the most significance followed by 4.61, 0.80, 0.23 for divergent thought, convergent thought, and evaluative judgment respectively. Concerning self-evaluation adjustment, it is true to say that convergent thought, cognitive memory, and divergent thought have scored 40.7, 31.48, and 27.77 percent respectively. It could be possible to reach this conclusion that in Farsi book’s contents of elementary sixth- grade, therefore, cognitive memory has received more attention than the high levels of creativity and most attention has also been paid to divergent thought in self- evaluations.

Computer games, with increasing variety, have become one of the most popular ways of entertainment and play among children and adolescents. They are divided into several types in terms of structure‚ content and complexity and have been categorized into violent and non-violent genres. In recent years, numerous researches conducted on computer games show that they improve cognitive abilities such as spatial visualization‚ visual memory‚ mental rotation ‚ processing speed and problem–solving thinking. In the present paper, meta-analysis is made on 34 studies about the effect of these games on selective reaction time‚ working memory and spatial visualization as independent variables. The statistical population consists of all relevant researches in between 2003 and 2012. The results are combined in the meta-analysis review. The findings show that no matter what the type of research is (experimental or non-experimental), the size of effect of the research combination is r+ =0.34 for selective reaction time, r+ = 0.2 for working memory, and r+ = 0.27 for spatial visualization. Experimental researches show lower effect size. Also the longer the playing is, the greater is the effect size.

This study aims to determine effectiveness of group conceptual mapping on cognitive - emotional indicators of chemistry courses. Participants include 147 first grade high school female students and the intended educational content is chemistry. The research project is designed based on a quasi-experimental plan along with post-test and comparison group. Participants are selected using single-stage cluster sampling and specified to the test group (60 individuals) and control group (87 individuals) randomly. In test group, group conceptual maps were drawn by participants after teaching, while in control group participants were learning the same contents with common methods. Cognitive and emotional indicators of the study were evaluated by a researcher designed test and self-effectiveness questionnaire (Morris, 2001), respectively. Results of the study show conceptual group mapping has positive effect on cognitive indicators of learners on chemistry courses, however, other parts of the findings indicate conceptual group mapping can only meaningfully influence educational self-effectiveness as one of the elements of emotional indicators, and has no meaningful effect on other elements (social and emotional) of self-effectiveness.

The purpose of this study was to develop and normalizing a Existing Beliefs Scale Is Based on the Holy Quran (With Emphasis on Vews of Allameh Tabatabai) for pationts with MS. The population in this study were included of all MS patients covered by social security insurance and were referred to pharmacies such as 13 Aban, 29 Farvardin, Shahid Kazemi and Red cross and from which the patients of the 13 Aban pharmacy were selected randomly in this study. The sample were consisted of 150 patients . The first version had 39 items, and the primary analysis with face and content validity on 30 children, (Cronbach’s Alpha = .97), and correlation of the items with the total score revealed that the scale is acceptable with 39 items for the general population. Then, with omitting 2 items due to low correlation, the reliability of the scale (Cronbach’s Alpha = .77) was approved. Utilizing an exploratory factor analysis, construct validity showed KMO was .687, and Bartlett's Test of Sphericity was significant (P < 0.01). Furthermore, an expletory factor analysis and Varimax rotation were performed, and primary factors with factor-load bigger than 0.3 were maintained. Then, complex items were omitted and finally 28 items and 50 options remained in form of 4 subscales (1. Being in significant world, 2. Faith and truth, 3. self-awareness and responsibility, 4. forgiveness and love to others). Reliability and internal consistency of the scales with 25 items was approved (Cronbach’s Alpha = .70). Pearson correlation analysis manifested a significant relationship between the subscales and the total scale (P < .01). Finally, standardized and normalized scores were computed. The results showed that the Existing Beliefs questionnaire has Usability as a reliable and standardized tool for Research and clinical status.

The aim of the present study was to investigate the effectiveness of the online peer assessment method on the academic satisfaction of students in the course of educational psychology during the Corona era. The method of the present research was a pre-test-post-test experiment with a control group. The statistical population of the research was made up of all the students of the Faculty of Literature and Human Sciences of Arak University in the academic year of 1401-1401. Among the above population, 38 people who had taken a course in educational psychology were selected using available sampling method as the sample size of the research, and then the selected sample was randomly placed in the form of experimental and control groups (19 people in each group). The participants of the experimental group benefited from the peer assessment method for one academic semester to review and give feedback on the tasks of the educational psychology course. Data collection tool was Lent et al.'s (2007) education satisfaction questionnaire. In order to analyze the data, descriptive statistics (mean and standard deviation) and inferential statistics (correlated t-test and analysis of covariance) were used. The results of the analysis showed the effect of the peer evaluation strategy on the academic satisfaction of the experimental group participants. Based on the findings of the research, it can be said that the integration of new assessment methods, including peer assessment, along with other methods in electronic learning can increase the academic satisfaction of students.
