The purpose of the current research is to develop a causal model of evaluating body dysmorphic disorder using metacognitive assessment. It integrates positive psychological capital and spiritual well-being among women seeking rhinoplasty, with social harmony as a mediating factor. The research method is descriptive correlational, employing structural equation modeling. The study population consisted of all women seeking rhinoplasty who visited specialized and super-specialized cosmetic and nasal surgery clinics, including Top Clinic, Dr. Najaf Beigi Clinic, Tehran Beauty Clinic, and Tarah Tab Clinic, located in regions 1 and 2 of Tehran, during the autumn and winter of2023. Three hundred individuals were selected using the Convenience Judgmental Sampling method for the research sample. The research tools included the Metacognition Body Dysmorphic Disorder Questionnaire (Rabiei et al.,2011), the Psychological Capital Questionnaire by Luthans (2007), the Spiritual Well-being Questionnaire (Dehshiri et al., 2013), and the Al-72 Social Harmony Questionnaire (Lotfi, 1993). The data analysis employed Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) method and utilized the software SPSS and Amos. The findings reveal that the causal model evaluating body dysmorphic disorder through Positive Psychological Capital and Spiritual Well-being among women seeking rhinoplasty, with the mediating role of social harmony, exhibits a favorable goodness of fit.

Marriage for the second time will be a big challenge if any of the man or woman or both have children. In this case, there will be challenging factors including various cultural, economic, traditions and beliefs and many other problems. Even the existence of a child will be one of the main reasons for preventing them from marriage. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to examine the experience of the challenges of re-marriage with the presence of children and to identify its final structure in the participants who had experienced that. In this research, a qualitative descriptive phenomenological research has been directed to collect and evaluate information about the challenges of re-marriage with the presence of the children. Fourteen subjects who experienced remarriage in their married life were selected through targeted sampling and data collection was conducted through semi-structured interviews.

The objective of this article was to investigate the relationship between capitals, religiosity and loneliness among women in Shiraz, Iran. Using survey method, we chose 413 women between 19 to 65 years of age by cluster random sampling. Findings showed that being religious decrease emotional loneliness and more cultural and social capital decrease social loneliness. Employed women enjoyed more education and social capital in comparison to nonemployed ones and felt much less social loneliness. Emotional loneliness was not significantly different in two groups. Findings suggest that employment has many advantages for women. Employed women are more empowered so that they have more social and cultural capitals and they will not suffer of social loneliness especially when they come to age.

The present study aims to describe the rate of premarital skills among daughters of Martyrs and Veterans in Mazandaran Province, as well as to identify the impact of parents’ marital skills on their girls’ skills. The universe of the study is all of single, older than 15 years old girls whose fathers were martyr or veteran. 366 young girls have been selected as a sample of the study via two-steps proportional random sampling method. Descriptive results indicate that rate of premarital skills is less than expected level (9.4 out of 20 score). However, these girls were more skilled in communication and anger control skills, as well as problem solving than marriage expectation and fertility skills. On the basis of regression analysis, rate of premarital skills among young girls can be predicted significantly (R2= 0.45), by independent variables, such as receiving direct education on marital life from parents, being younger girl, having higher education level, having richer fathers financially, and observing less negative behaviors of their fathers at home. These findings imply on necessity of invest on the teaching of premarital skills to young girls, especially in order to regulating their marriage expectation and increasing fertility knowledge.

This study examines educational inequalities between boys and girls in secondary schools by using context, space, human resources, education coverage, education process, outputs and outcomes as comparative indicators. The research study is a descriptive - analytical survey. The required data have been collected through both using documents and questionnaires. Using stratified random sampling, the questionnaires were distributed among a sample of 815 high school students (419 boys and 396 girls) in province of Western Azerbaijan. Validity of questionnaires has been confirmed by using factor analysis and reliability by using Cronbach’s Alfa. The findings suggest that in the context of inequality, except for educational sensitivity of parents no other variable showed a significant difference between boys and girls. Given the disparity in the space, human resources and educational coverage indicators,, a significant inequality is evident between boys and girls. As to the question of inequality in educational processes, apart from inequality in the justice treatment, there is no significant difference between boys and girls. For the question of inequality in outputs and outcomes, the educational success of female students as well as their higher percentage of passing the university entrance and developed motivation toward school, shows higher status of girls.

Survey methods is used in this study and the statistical population included all women working in the city of Aran & Bidgol. Using Cochran's formula and Simple Random Sampling, 250 married women were selected as research sample. Statistical tests show that there is meaningful and direct relationship between Conflictin Social Relations, Conflict in Housekeeping, Conflict in Spouse Handling, Conflict in Children Handling, Age, Number of Children and Work Pressures. There is also an inverse relation between Education and Working Pressure. In the Multivariate Analysis and Path Analysis among the four first variables, only two variables, namely Conflictin Social Relations and Conflict in Housekeeping, entered into the regression equation and other variables are out of the equation. As a result, Work Pressure on employed women creates effects on their Social Relations and Housekeeping that in trurn, creates new conflicts for them. The paper argues how Role Conflicts, in particular Work Pressures, can create risks for physical and mental health of working women.
