Single-question instruments have been among the most effective proceedings in the field of psychometrics in recent past decades. Therefore, the current research was conducted to design and validate the psychometric properties of the single-question life satisfaction scale. The present research method was descriptive-survey. The statistical population of this study included all the university students of Hamedan province; 600 subjects were selected from this population by a possible multi-stage cluster sampling. The research instruments encompassed the single-question life satisfaction scale, the Ryff psychological well-being scale, and the symptom Check-list (SCL-25). In addition, the reliability of retest and the validity of criterion were used to analyze the data. The results illustrated that the reliability score of retest was 0. 74, convergent validity with psychological well-being 0. 61, and divergent validity with anxiety and depression were-0. 36 and-0. 53, respectively, which is considered desirable. Furthermore, the life satisfaction mean difference of men and women was not statistically significant (p>0. 05). Accordingly, this scale possesses acceptable validity and reliability and is suitable for measuring the structure of overall life satisfaction. Consequently, the single-question life satisfaction scale can be used in immediate studies, as well as survey studies with a large sample size.

Kolmogorov-Smirnov tests, Pearson correlation, simple, and multiple linear regressions were also used to analyze the data. The results illustrated that sense of security, after, before, and during the match with beta values of 0. 382, 0. 312, and 0. 248, respectively in this sporting event, had the greatest impact on the re-presence of sports tourists (p < 0 0. 05).

This study aims to investigate the role of women police in preventing violence against women since they constitute a vast majority of our society. Due to psychological and biological characteristics, they are good targets for victimization. A great amount of the victimization is related to violence and different strategies could be applied to prevent it, including the adoption of preventive strategies in the context of situational prevention. The method of this research is descriptive-analytical. Using this method, we have investigated law books and dissertations, non-Persian sources, special police bill, and women's security bill against violence by taking notes. The results illustrated that women police providing some services can have a positive effect on preventing domestic violence. Therefore, Iran's police, like other countries', should use trained forces and special police for women, as well as the use of coercive and non-coercive tools in order to detect violence and prevent such violence
