Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between virtual education and mobile learning on students' academic self-handicapping during the outbreak of COVID19. Research Methodology: The present study is a descriptive study of correlation type. The statistical population includes all primary school students in Zabol city. Using Cochran's formula and Morgan’s table and cluster random sampling method, 277 people were selected as the research sample. Data were collected using the Jones & Rudwalt (1982) Academic Self-handicapping Scale Questionnaire, Mobile Learning Ability Questionnaire, and Virtual Learning Questionnaire. Results: The results of statistical analysis indicate that there is a positive and significant relationship between students’ academic disability and virtual education. The intensity of this relationship is very strong and virtual education has the power to predict academic self-handicapping(P?0.05). Besides that, there is no significant relationship between students’ academic disability and mobile learning. Conclusion: Therefore, we conclude that students who are more prone to academic disability are less likely to participate in the classroom. Limitations: One of the most important limitations of the present study is that due to the timing of the conference, researchers did not have enough time to conduct follow-up tests to sustain the impact of brain teasers.

Background: The long-term outbreak of coronavirus (COVID-19), accompanied by high mortality rates, hysteria, and economic pressures, has profound, irreversible psychological effects worldwide. Objectives: This study compared mental health and post-traumatic impacts of the COVID-19 outbreak in the peak period of the pandemic in five regions of Iran. Methods: A web-based cross-sectional survey was carried out at the peak of the pandemic using free Google Forms® software. A snowball sampling method focused on the general public in the north east-west, central part, and south east-west of Iran was utilized from March 24 to 29th of 2020. The Impact of Event Scale-Revised (IES-R) and the Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale (DASS-21) were applied as data collection tools. Results: The current study included 749 respondents from all provinces in Iran. Most of the participants were from the southeast and the central part of Iran and stayed at home for about 20 to 24 hours during COVID-19 outbreak. The results of MANOVA indicated that there were no significant differences between the means of mental disorders and the impacts of COVID-19 outbreak in these five regions (F = 1.188, Wilks’ Lambda = 0.97, P ≥ 0.05). Nevertheless, one-sample test showed that the IES-R mean score was above the cut-off point, indicating the presence of post-traumatic stress disorder symptoms in all regions of Iran (t = 8.025, P ≤ 0.05, 95% CI: 3.22 to 5.31). Conclusions: As a result of this study that shows the presence of PTSD symptoms in all regions, mental health care is a necessity and should be provided to the general public so that psychologists and mental health teams have to provide psychological services in-person or online method.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between school culture and academic enthusiasm with academic hope and motivation in high school students. Research methodology: The present study is applied in terms of purpose and is among the descriptive studies of correlation type. The statistical population includes all high school students in Zahak city,whose number in the academic year 2021-2022 is 1324 people.Using Morgan table and Cochran's formula, 297 students were selected by statistical random sampling as a statistical sample.To prevent statistical sample loss and better adequacy, a sample of 320 questionnaires was distributed by multi-stage random cluster sampling method. Results: The results of the analysis showed that there is a positive and significant relationship between academic motivation and students' academic enthusiasm.The intensity of this relationship is very strong and academic motivation has the power to predict academic enthusiasm. There is no significant relationship between school culture and academic motivation and school culture does not have the power to predict academic motivation. Limitations: What should be considered by school parents is to pay attention to creating a correct and flexible culture in school, because each student spends more than half of his time in school and is exposed to school relationships and culture, and these relationships over time. Contribution: Among the limitations of the research are the lack of sufficient scientific content around the research variables,the lack of cooperation of some schools in the implementation of the questionnaire and the limitation in the generalizability of the results of this research.

Background: The purpose of this study is investigating the effectiveness of mindfulness-based stress reduction training in reducing post-traumatic stress and its effects at the peak of the COVID-19 epidemic in abused and unattended adolescents in correctional centers. Methods: The present study was a quasi-experimental study with a pretest and posttest design in a control group. The statistical population of the present study consisted of all abused and unaccompanied adolescents in correctional centers. The sampling method was convenient, and 30 adolescents were selected based on the inclusion criteria and randomly assigned to two groups of 15 (experimental and control). Withers et al.'s (1993) list of post-traumatic stress disorder was used to collect data. Results: For statistical analysis of data, covariance analysis and independent t-test were used with the help of SPSS software. The results showed a significant difference between the control and experimental groups (P < 0.05) in such a way that the stress reduction training based on stress mindfulness after the accident had a direct and significant effect at the 95% confidence level. Conclusions: Considering that badly-supervised and unsupervised teenagers are a vulnerable segment of society, mindfulness training is a suitable way to reduce future harm.
