Students need to follow a curriculum on lifestyle factors. Therefore, the present study was conducted with the aim of evaluating the effect of healthy lifestyle psycho-educational training on quality of life (physical and psychological) and social health of students. Materials & Methods: In the present semi-experimental research with pre-test and post-test design, conducted in 2015-2016, 76 students of Islamic Azad University of Arak, Iran were selected by voluntary sampling method and randomly divided to education (37 students) and control (39 persons) groups that were matched according to age and gender criteria. The research instruments were a researcher-made questionnaire for demographic data, a quality of life questionnaire (SF-36), and Keys social health questionnaire. The lifestyle training program was conducted for a 30-hour course for the education group, and the control group did not receive any interventions. Multivariate analysis of covariance analysis was used to analyze the data. Findings: The mean post-test scores of the components of quality of life (physical function, physical pain, general health, vitality, social function, emotional role and mental health) was significantly different between 2 groups (p<0.05), but in physical role of quality of life and health, there was no significant difference between 2 groups (p> 0.05).

Since the patterns of spouse-selecting have changed from traditional to modern, and some scholars have shown the relationship between these two variables, this study aimed to investigate marital satisfaction in different patterns of marriage, and analysis of the results was done by using some Quran verses. Instrument & Methods: In this cross-sectional study in 2014, 880 married women in reproductive age (15-49 years) in Babol City, Iran, were selected through multi-stage cluster sampling. The spouse-selecting style questionnaire was used to examine marital satisfaction patterns and the Walter and Hudson marital satisfaction questionnaire was used to assess the marital satisfaction. Data analysis was performed in SPSS 21 software, using Chi-square, independent T-test and logistic regression tests. The overall results were analyzed by looking at Quranic verses. Findings: Autonomy in choosing a spouse, level of education, economic status and the pattern of marriage were effective in marital satisfaction. Marital satisfaction was 1.98 times higher among women who had a high degree of autonomy in choosing a spouse than women who did not have autonomy. Marital satisfaction in women with primary and secondary education was 40% lower than that of women with university education. Marital satisfaction in women with low economic status was 65% lower than women with high economic status. Marital satisfaction was 2.23 times higher among women who had a combined marriage pattern (p<0.05). This result was confirm to verses 5 of Sura Maedeh, 25 of Sura Nisa and 235 of Sura Baqar, which prohibited secret friendships before marriage.

Materials and Methods: The present study was conducted to provide an entrepreneurial e-banking ecosystem model that is integrated in terms of research approach and is inductive in its direction. In order to present the model in the qualitative part of the research, the content analysis method with semi-structured interview tools has been used. Examples of the qualitative part are experts and activists in the field of electronic banking who are proficient in the concept of entrepreneurial ecosystem. In this section, after reaching theoretical saturation with 15 interviews and by examining and classifying the descriptive codes obtained from the interview texts, 33 basic concepts were identified and according to their semantic similarity and closeness, they were classified into 8 concepts. In the next step to identify the relationships between the elements of the model obtained from the qualitative part, the fuzzy dimethyl technique is used, which is a quantitative technique to identify relationships. Also, structural equation modeling technique was used to validate the research model. Findings: Based on the designed initial model, it is clear that strategic banking management has an effect on banking policy and electronic management of human resources.

Materials and Methods: A total of 380 fifth grade students (188 Persian-Turkish bilingual and 192 Persian monolingual) students in Bojnourd were selected as a research sample using multi-stage cluster sampling. To measure short-term memory, complex Ray and Street (ROCFT) forms were used, to measure reading performance, reading and dyslexic performance tools (Nema) and mean year-end scores of mathematics, Persian and science courses were used to measure academic achievement. Structural equation modeling method was used to analyze the data. Findings: The results show that in both groups, the direct effect of short-term memory on academic achievement and the indirect effect of short-term memory on academic achievement through reading performance was positive and significant. In both groups, the highest path coefficient was observed between short-term memory and academic achievement and the lowest coefficient between reading performance and academic achievement. Bilinguals had scores on all components except the subscales for removing sounds and reading non-words (in the reading performance variable). Conclusion: The result is that learning the skills of one language, such as reading and writing, helps to enrich the skills of another language and increase the sounds and meanings in memory, and the proficiency gained in one language is transferred to another language.
