The purpose of this study was to predict academic self-efficacy based on learning strategies, taking into account the mediating role of achievement goals. The research method is descriptive and is a type of structural equation modeling. The statistical population of the study was all students studying at Azad University of Tehran Markaz Branch in the academic year of 2016-17. The sample size was 401 students who were selected by clustering method (20 undergraduate classes from 5 faculties of Tehran central unit). The research tool was the self-efficacy questionnaire of Own and Feraman (1988), the scale of the Vienna-Stein learning strategies (1987), and achievement goals scale of Migley et al. (1988). The collected data were analyzed using structural equation modeling. Results of data analysis showed that the predictive model of academic self-efficacy based on learning strategies, considering the mediating role of achievement goals based on the experimental data, has a good fit. The direct and indirect effects of learning strategies on academic self-efficacy of students were confirmed with 95% confidence. The achievement goals directly affect academic self-efficacy.

The aim of the present study was to determine the effectiveness of a lifestyle intervention intervention package on bullying and impulsivity in secondary school male students in Shiraz. In this regard, experimental method with pre-test and post-test design was used. The statistical population of the study consisted of all male students studying in Shiraz high schools in the city of Shiraz randomly selected and 30 of them were selected by convenience sampling method and randomly divided into two groups. The experimental and control groups (each group 15) were included.First, members of both groups were tested using impulsivity scale (Bass & Perry, 1992) and bullying scale (Oliveus, 1996) (pretest). Then, the experimental group received eight sessions of lifestyle intervention training while the control group did not receive any training. At the end of group sessions, posttest was taken from both groups.Findings showed that after intervention, the overall impulsivity variable and its components (physical impulsivity, verbal impulsivity, anger and hostility) as well as bullying and its components (especially bullying prevalence) were significantly reduced in the experimental group compared to the control group. Based on this, it can be said that lifestyle intervention package training is effective in reducing impulsivity and bullying in adolescents and therefore, it is recommended that lifestyle intervention package training be considered as part of the school curriculum.

AbstractThe research literature has paid a great deal of attention to the ability of students to self-regulate their learning. Considering the important role of self-regulatory strategies in learning, a meta-analysis was conducted to study the relationship between self-regulatory strategies and academic achievement. In order to conduct meta-analysis technique, the effect size of the relationship of academic achievement and self-regulatory strategies were identified. Among 31 studies, 16 of which were checked against pre-determined criteria for eligibility of relevance. This study was based on 4088 samples and 16 effect size. The effect size of the study was computed by Hunter & Schmdit’s stages of meta-analysis. The results of the study revealed that the mean of effect size of the relationship between cognitive and meta-cognitive strategies with academic achievement based on Cohen’s table (r=0.29). The effect size of cognitive strategies (r=0.41) were established. However the combination of the effect size of cognitive and meta-cognitive strategies (r=0.38) were computed. The effect size of relationship between motivational strategies of self-regulated learning (motivational beliefs, achievement motivation, achievement goals, goals orientation, and self-efficacy) and academic achievement (r=0.34) obtained.

Purpose: The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of the psychological learning environment on students' academic satisfaction through personal meaning mediation. Method: The research method surveys. The population of the study consisted of 956 students of secondary schools in Babol city who were selected using a cluster sampling method. Data were collected using a questionnaire called "What is Happening in this Class" (Smith, 2013), a Personal Factor Meaning Questionnaire (Riker, 1992), and the Academic Satisfaction Scale (Smith, 2013). Descriptive and inferential statistics (Pearson correlation coefficients and structural equation modeling) were used to analyze the data. Results: The results indicated that there is a positive relationship between the variables of the psychological learning environment with the personal meaning of a factor and academic satisfaction as well as between academic satisfaction with personal meaning. In addition to the direct impact on academic satisfaction, the variable of the psychological learning environment has a direct relationship with the mediating factor of personal meaning and has a positive effect on academic satisfaction. Conclusion: In the previous research, similar results were obtained for the relationship of the components between these three domains. The results of this study are focused on the effect of the learning environment on the components of meaningful personal meaning and students' educational satisfaction. Thus, it can be said that the emphasis on self-knowledge and the development of transcendent consciousness should be a central part of the educational paradigm of schools.

The purpose of this research is to systematically study the characteristics of a learning environment that are considered in all aspects of the teaching-learning process in the curriculum and its practical implementation. This environment is influenced by culture, tradition, technology and richness in design and construction. The approach of this research is quantitative. In the designed model, the components of learning environment that were identified using content analysis in 7 dimensions are: learner, teacher, teaching-learning process, curriculum approaches, teaching content, learning environment physics, and evaluation.This model was validated by a researcher-made questionnaire. In the first part, the exterior model of the study is evaluated using first-order confirmatory factor analysis, presenting the results of convergent validity and divergence validity, and after establishing the validity condition, structural equation modeling using second-order measurement model is presented. For convergent validity, mean extracted variance (AVE) and reliability (CR) were calculated and Lisrel software was used to evaluate the designed model based on X2 indices of freedom, fitness index (GFI), adjustment index. Fit (AGFI), Soft fit index (NFI), Soft fit index (NNFI), Incremental fit index (IFI), Adaptive fit index (CFI), and Root estimation of second root estimation error (RMSEA) were used.

Turnover of the video game industry is three times larger than the cinema. Students are the most consumer of this market. Games in addition to theirs benefits can causes many problems as Increasing violence. The study seeks to investigate the using rate of violent games and its relationship with the amount and type of bullying of elementary school male and female students in Bojnord. Data were collected through two questionnaires: Illinois bullying scale and a researcher-made game questionnaire. Findings showed that the rate of violent games among boys is significantly higher than girls. And the rate of bullying fights and victimization is higher among boys too. Contrary to expectations, the most important finding showed that there is a negative relationship between playing violent games with the dimension of bullying, the dimension of fighting and the dimension of victimization that in first two is meaningful. That is, games not only didn’t have a significant relationship with increasing violence, on the contrary have with reducing it. There are theories that can explain this finding, so that these games calm children by discharging the latent violence and therefore have a positive effect on their behavior; especially if the conditions and lifestyle were how they couldn't experience in real environment. The findings of this study, although challenging the mainstream, do not recommend the use of violent games to reduce school bullying; because moral, psychological and physical harms still remain, moreover there are other ways to prevent and reduce bullying at school.

Self-regulation enables individuals to direct their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in a purposeful way. The main purpose of the present research was to improve the level of self-regulation through the training of executive functions, which emphasizes the role of inhibition because inhibition is a kind of self-conscious that can lead to self-regulation. The statistical population of this study was all students in the fifth, sixth and seventh grade in the academic year of 2018-19. The sampling method is convenience sampling. The research was a semi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest and 45 days follow up with a control group. In the experimental group, 20 students received 8 sessions of 90 minutes of training base on an educational researcher-made package, while the members of the control group received no training. The research tool was The Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function. For analysis of data, structural models with partial least squares approach were used in the form of a MIMIC model. From significant findings of this study, we can mention the fitting of the conceptual model as well as the direct and indirect effect of executive functions education on self-regulation. These effects persisted in the follow-up phase. Therefore, considering the importance of self-regulation in the academic and non-academic life of students, it can be concluded that a researcher-made educational package can be used to improve this concept.
