Environmental attitudes of people have a great role in preserving and optimizing the ecological environment of humans. Spirituality as an important human factor can explain many of our social behaviors. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between spiritual intelligence and environmental attitudes among students of Payame Noor University in Bojnourd. The methodology of this study is descriptive and correlational according to the nature of the subject and the desired goals. The statistical population of this study consists of 315 students selected by random sampling. To measure the variables of the research, King's Spiritual Intelligence Questionnaire (SISRI) (2008) and Environmental Thought Questionnaire (Thumpson & Bertton, 1994) were used. The results of the analysis showed that the components of spiritual intelligence can predict the environmental attitudes of Payame Noor University students (P <.5). The scores indicate that if one unit increases in the consciousness awareness and awareness variable, we will increase the amount of 20 hundredths of units in the environmental attitude. Also, an increase in the critical thinking and production of meaning scores will increase by 31% and 21% respectively in students' environmental attitudes. The way to a sustainable society in contemporary societies is to pay attention to the environment in any society, the nature of environmental attitudes is based on the values that the citizens of each society must have equipped to lead to ecological behaviors. Spiritual intelligence is one of the factors that facilitates and strengthens ethical values and ethical issues and urban world attitudes.

Democratization of Science and Society Relationships From Scientific Literacy to Knowledge Co-Production Mohammad Amin Ghaneirad Associate Professor of Sociology at National Research Institute for Science Policy Email: ghaneirad@yahoo.com Abolfazl Morshedi PhD Candidate, Tehran University Abstract Scientists seek to establish and maintain relationships with society and different groups of people, but these relationships have been rather one-directional and based on monologue logic flowing from scientists to the lay. During recent decades, however, the science and society relationships have witnessed changes: facilitating processes of dialogical and encouraging open/mutual participation. The present paper, while reviewing the literature, theoretical views and experiences of other countries, takes a glance at the Iranian situation and seeks to answer the following questions: 1- How have been the forms of science and society relations during recent decades? 2- What relations have exhibited these formations, echoing changes of society’s forms? 3- What parallels exist between forms of contemporary democracy and forms of science and society relations? 4- How the Iranian situation of science and society relations can be organized in a more democratic direction? The first section of the paper based on the study of the existing literature presents forms of science and society relations in three models of public deficit, public engagement, and public participation. The second section examines the link between three categories of science, society and democracy to clarify symmetry between these conceptual formulations with social changes and shifts in contemporary democracy forms. The finding of the paper shows the emergence of cultural and technological changes and that genesis of late modernity or postmodern society has been effective in democratization of knowledge and society. The final section of paper proposes several ideas for developing democratic processes in science and social relations in the country.

Purpose: In the classical era, the decision-making process was considered to be completely identifiable, but in the modern era, this assumption was increasingly challenged because decision-making is very complex and in various ways, intuitive, experimental, heuristic, static and dynamic rationality. It takes place in different situations and naturally the human brain may make mistakes in this process. Today, the concept of rational decision-making has been seriously criticized; Criticisms such as that the reasoning capacity of each person is limited and low and influenced by cognitive biases and hidden biases the aim of this study was to understand the decision-making orientations of organizational consultants based on the cognitive science approach.Methodology: The present study was applied in terms of purpose and qualitative in nature and method. The statistical population of the study was the organizational consultants of an industrial town located in Tehran province in 2020. The sample size of 10 people was selected due to theoretical saturation and through snowball sampling. Structured interview method was used to collect data and reliability method between two coders (Cohen kappa coefficient) was used to determine the reliability, which was obtained as 0.86 and was confirmed. The validity was also based on the interview protocol. Data analysis was performed using open coding equivalent to qualitative content analysis in Maxqda 11 software.Findings: Findings from interviews with consultants included: 3 main categories, 8 sub-categories, 28 concepts and 161 initial codes (3 main categories; excessive information, need to act quickly and lack of meaning) and (8 subcategories: availability, framing, reference effect, validation, representation, insistence, commitment and control illusion).Conclusion: The results showed that there are strategic prescriptions for all three main categories, which can be used to greatly reduce bias. Holding workshops such as critical thinking due to deconstruction in the mental framework of individuals, recognizing their personality type and others, clarifying goals before seeing and reviewing options, carefully estimating information sources and increasing the time for decision making reduce this incidence It becomes biased.

ABSTRACT The present study aims atinvestigating the designinglevel of social policy issues in textbooks and determiningthe kind of cognitions these books tend to convey to students with respect to social policy. The study also answers the question of “what principles and formal approaches to social policy are there in the textbooks” . For this reason, the contents of Persian textbooks of elementary schools in Iran were analyzed to find the degree of their relationships with target groups and social institution of the family . To validate the procedure, all Persian textbooks of elementary schools, including the teacher's guide, were accurately investigated. The results show that, chapters entitled“institutions, health, scientists, and environment”have been able to deal withthe issues intended in the titles, but not successful withthe targeted social policy and the relevance and coherence of different social policy issues and their mutual influence on each other . Moreover, issues such as empathy and sympathy with the poor and assisting the oppressed are come into view under various titles in the textbooks. In general, social policy issues are introduced to students in the context of promoting individualism and personal libertyand most probably this is done with an individualistic and nonconformist approach.It seems that the preceptand doctrine of personal choice in various social issues have been presented witha formal approach to social policy. This must be taken into account that the sense of moral and spiritual values, including dos and don'ts, are taking effect in school textbooks.

The study of human phenomena is the specific characteristic of social sciences. Since the dimensions of these phenomena are complex and multidimensional, social sciences have specific position in everyday life. Therefore, the present paper seeks to explore the hidden dimensions of inefficiency of teaching of social sciences in Iran. The main six challenges of teaching social sciences are identified as teaching methods, quality of teaching, evaluation, encouraging students to pure abstract thinking, dissimilarity of teaching methods in natural sciences and social sciences, and problems related to absence of educational technology. At the end with the emphasis on sociological imagination, which may improve the quality of teaching of social sciences in Iran, three suggestions are provided.

The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between motivational beliefs and academic performance of students with the mediating role of goal orientation. To this end, 403 students from the Farhangian University of Mashhad were selected by stratified sampling method and completed the questionnaire of learning motivational beliefs (Pintrich et al., 1991) and goal orientation (Elliot and McGregor Gore, 2001). The relationship of variables through the model Structural equation analysis was tested. Based on the results of this research, the proposed conceptual model, with respect to model indices, has the necessary fitness. The results showed that motivational beliefs predicted the goal orientation and academic performance of the students. Also, the goal orientation is the predictive performance of the student. Regarding the mediating role of variables, the results showed that motivational beliefs indirectly affect academic performance due to goal orientation

Family life is tied to many dangers that destroyed family life and family health. One of these dangers is marital infidelity, which has many problems and many psychological effects for someone who has been betrayed. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of two therapies, reality therapy and emotionally focused therapy on betrayed women in Tehran. The research design was quasi-experimental with two experimental groups and one control group. The community consisting of all married women who were betrayed and referred to counseling centers of the Behzisty organization of Tehran. A sample of 45 patients was randomly divided into three groups (Experiment 1, Experiment 2 and Control) and each group have 15 patients. The research instruments included marital quality questionnaire (Busby et al., 1995) and Enrich marriage satisfaction (Olson, Fornier, and Drackman, 1989). The statistical results indicated that both experimental groups had a significant difference compared to the control group. The results of multivariate covariance analysis also showed that there is a significant difference between the two groups in Glaser's therapeutic approach and Emotionally focused therapy on dependent variables. The results of the LSD test showed that there was no significant difference between the efficacy of Glaser's therapy and Emotionally focused therapy on marital quality in the post-test, but marital satisfaction score in EFT was higher than Glaser's therapeutic approach. Therefore, both treatments have been effective in increasing the marital quality and marital satisfaction, and emotion-focused therapy has been more effective in marital satisfaction than the Reality therapy.

The present research was designed and conducted by the aim of investigating The Role of Self-Construl in predicting social problem solving ability in university students. The present study used a descriptive/correlational method. Population of this study included all students who were studying in the University Kharazmi in the academic year of 2017-2018. Among the statistical population, 325 students were selected by multi-stage random sampling method. The subjects completed Self construal questionnaire of Hardin, Leong & Bhagwat, and social problem solving ability questionnaire of D’Zurilla and Nezu. The data analysis was conducted by using Pearson correlation test and step-by-step multiple regression method in SPSS v23. Results of Pearson correlation test suggested that there is positive and significant relationship between dependent Self-Construl and Independent Self-Construl with social problem solving ability. Results of step-by-step multiple regressions indicated that dependent Self-Construl and Independent Self-Construl could positively and significantly predict students' social problem solving ability. According to research findings, the self-construl factor as a cultural construct should be considered in predicting the students' social problem solving ability.

The Academic Education and Cultural Capital Studying the Relationship Morteza Monadi Associate Professor, Alzahra University Abstract Culture or in the interpretation of Bourdieu (1989) cultural capital, includes level of education, physical and material elements of culture and habitus which are always found in cultural behaviors and activities such as watching TV, listening to music, going to the cinema, museum or a theater, reading books, newspapers, etc. Such acts requires objective material and cultural elements such as having a library, paintings, sculptures and antiques. Based on this, the members who have higher levels of education, should contain most of cultural goods of the consumers or as Adorno (1384) interpreted, cultural industries. This means that the universities, in addition to improving the level of individual’s knowledge, should increase their cultural capital and educational level. This may occur in Western societies, but the two research projects conducted in Tehran, on the family and women's groups of different classes enjoying varying economic, social, cultural and educational levels, imply that there is not a considerable difference between the academic and non-academic individuals in the use of cultural goods. In other words, universities had not been able to increase the cultural activities of the people up to the level at which their cultural capital level is also raised. Another important point is that the theories of the Western world do not necessarily respond accordingly in our society because our society is in transition from a traditional path towards the modernization and finally to amodernity (Berman, 1389).

The data collection tool was a researcher-made questionnaire. Data analysis was performed using SPSS software at a significance level of 0.05 using Spearman correlation tests and logistic regression, UM Man Whitney and Croscalwalis.Findings: The results of the relationship between knowledge with financial attitude and attitude with financial behavior had a positive correlation and these dimensions have a direct effect on the level of students' financial literacy. The influence of gender was also confirmed as a factor of differentiation in the level of literacy and in the dimensions of students' knowledge and financial behavior (P <0.001).Conclusion: Based on the results, there is a positive correlation between knowledge and attitude, as well as attitude and behavior, but there was no correlation between knowledge and financial behavior. These results suggest that financial knowledge alone cannot improve students' financial behavior
