While family is the most important social entity in child and adolescence education, school is the second effective one. What are important from educational point of view are different dimensions of education, which are logical, social, emotional, moral, spiritual, and corporal dimensions. This article studies the realization of education goals of "social studies" course in first grade of high school. This is a field research and the sample includes 400 participants of the population who were selected through cluster random selection, referring to Kerjecle, R.V. and Morgan. D.W table. A questionnaire was used in this research. The findings show that social education goals of the course in the fields of social, economic, political, and family qualifications among first grade high school students of Towns of Tehran are effective in a significant way. Results show that one of the findings of the research is that these students have the least qualification in political field and they don’t have enough information about the illegitimacy of the political system, taking part in elections, and talking about the candidates. Considering this matter the researcher suggests that schools and specially teachers of the mentioned course pay attention to the importance of providing enough information about the politics and emphasize on the importance of this knowledge in having a democratic society. Also it is suggested that a similar kind of research be done in primary schools and junior high schools.

According to the definition provided by World Health Organization (WHO), general health constitutes physical, psychological and social features. Therefore, health is a multilateral concept. The present study is an attempt to evaluate the general health of the workers of Iranian Offshore Oil Co., and determine the factors influencing it. Further the study applies, as its theoretical framework, theories such as William Goad’s role pressure theory, Merton’s role conflict, Marx’s alienation and energy scarcity. The study is a descriptive and derivational one, in which data gathering was performed through a survey. The population constitutes the whole workers of Iranian Offshore Oil Co. employed before 2010, of which 500 persons were chosen by cluster sampling method to fill in the questionnaire. GHQ questionnaire was applied in the study. The validity of questionnaire was assessed through formal validity, and its consistency through Internal Consistency (Cronbach’s Alpha). Among the most important findings of the study we may mention the significant difference between work area (platform or island) and type of work (shift-based or fixed-hours based) in GHQ test, in addition to the significant difference between on/ off basis work and general health of the workers and their families. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to type of work and work area in order to promote the general health status of the personnel.

This study is a survey on the relationship between family and school with the attitudes of high school students to social norms in Roudehen. It is a survey methodology and the studied statistical population consisted of both boy and girl high school students of Roudehen 186 of them were randomly selected as a sample, through Morgan table. The research tool was a questionnaire with 131 questions the accuracy of it was obtained by experts and in order to determine its validity it was performed experimentally on a sample of 30 subjects, and calculated the Cronbach’s alpha (0.83), respectively. Data from the questionnaire using pearson correlation analysis, had the results which shows, there are significant differences among components and the family oriented school students to social norms. By comparing the correlation between students’ family- oriented social norms (0.47) with a correlation coefficient with the tendency of students to the school social norms (0.33), we can say the family has more strongly associated with the tendency of students to social norms in comparison to the school and the family more effects are clearly evident.

Although immigration has been a common phenomenon throughout the history and in all communities, today the immigrats increasing routine especially of students is an alert for developing countries such as Iran. This research is carried out in order to recognize the social and cultural factors effective on Iranian students’ immigration to Hungary, by identifying the above mentioned factors’ role in immigration. This paper’s methodology was a survey research based on questionnaire technique and face to face interviews. This tool’s reliability coefficient was validated by Cronbach's alpha and the data analysis was performed by SPSS software and using descriptive statistics and inferential statistics (pearson’s test). The results showed that the foreign social attraction factors and the domestic cultural repulsion factors were effective on Iranian students’ immigration, and on the contrary, the effects of domestic social repulsion factors and foreign cultural attraction factors on the mentioned phenomenon are not confirmed.

Generally women have higher levels of life expectancy which could roots from biological conditions. Also, they enjoy higher levels of healthy life expectancy rather than men but it seems that, they do not enjoy of much more healthy life expectancy (HALE) in spite of their longer longevity, especially in less developed and under developed countries. This issue has this to say that in these countries gender equality is not conducted and women rights are violated. In this study, the relationship between gender inequality and gender gap, in couple of years, has been studied. The study is a analytical and correlation study and needed data for HALE was drown upon WHO statistics. Gender equality data has been chosen from UN annual report which being reported in form of human development reports. The period of analysis was 2001 until 2004. Finally, for studying the relationship between two main variables, correlation test and regression analysis was used. These study findings indicate that there is a significant and positive relationship between women educational, economic and income indicators with gender gap in healthy life expectancy. But there is no significant relationship between gender gap in healthy life expectancy and women political indicators. Results of regression analysis indicated that education indicator is a significant predictor of gender gap in healthy life expectancy. The results of this study pose the importance of socio-economic variables in health.

Rural- ubran migration is a phenomenon that has been grown after World War II. Not long after this time negative impact on the area of origin and destination were obvious, therefore the scholars and scientists in different fields have provided opportunity for research in this field.

The results show that social variables (social correlation), economic variables, departure repellent and destination attraction variables, culture variables and individual variables in regression analysis had the most role in immigration tendency of ruralist variance. Rurals of center part of Mahneshan had more rate of immigration tendency than Khorram Darreh Township.

This study examines the effect of self-efficacy among the University Staff. According to theoretical discussions, self efficacy is an expectations of success in job and individual efforts to achieve meaningful results through activity is defined. The self efficacy has been explained in Bandura's social learning theory framework. The base of this theory on human success is dependent on interaction between individual behavior, personal factors and environmental conditions.This study has been accomplished through social survey applied a total population of Azad university of East Tehran staff which concluded 112 cases and the final sampling size reduced to 85 valid cases at last. The findings indicate that the hypothesis of self efficacy with mental safety, job satisfaction, staff interactions were approved. The Regression models show the self efficacy is dependent on the mental safety, reward system and the expert of the staff. Finally, the variation of dependent variable is explained 40 percent by independent variables.
