This Paper is to study the relation between morality and deviation known as“modeling” among young girls in order to present moral typology. The paper applied qualitative methodology. Data gathering process was through deep and semi-structured interviews with 32 models at mazandaran center of fighting with organized cyber crimes. Data analyses were accomplished through thematic analysis method under qualitative methodological movement. Three moral types were found out of research: Preference Hedonists, Instrumentalists, and self-alien habitual. The first moral types become apparent with three different views: Expressive, motive-centered consequentialism and pure art. Some of them find hedonism in being famous, some of them in being specific, some of them in being visible, some of them in advising other women, some group in making opportunity for women, some of them in lack of body management, and some in cat-walking as a pure art. But agents with instrumental morality observe modeling merely as an instrument to attach some specific goals such as escape from garrison-like family, or revenge from solid religious structure of family and patriarchy. The young girls who classified as self-alien habitual are not in search of any specific goal and hedonism. Formation of alienation in such a group, makes modeling as a habitual action for them.

Nowadays, young people particularly Iranian students are impressed by the features and elements of the modern world. Therefore, attitudes towards suicide, euthanasia and the fear of death have changed. This article studies their attitudes towards these phenomena according to their religiosity. This paper has been done by Interpretivism and interrogative strategy paradigm and qualitative methods. The data were collected from a sample of 19-27 year-old Students that were chosen both purposive and theoretically, through open-ended questions and in-depth interviews. They were analyzed by the application of grounded theory method. Outcomes and results show the centrality of religiosity of the students in their attitude toward suicide, euthanasia and the fear of death. Thus, the central issue is "religious-secular attitude toward suicide, euthanasia and the fear of death".

Using qualitative research strategy and the Delphi technique, this study aimed to identify the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting's (IRIB) dysfunctions in sports area. The data were collected through two steps. In the first step, a list of propositions pertaining to the media dysfunctions was prepared through searching bibliographic resources and theories on the communication area. Then in the second step, the elicited propositions were used as a baseline for preparing a semistructured questionnaire, and the Delphi Technique was used to collect experts' opinions about these propositions. The first and second steps included 20 and 17 experts, respectively. Members of the Group of experts included academic experts in the fields of sport management, media management, public administration and communication and executive experts who have more than fifteen years of experience in the field of media and sports that were selected by purposive sampling. Totally, 18 propositions were confirmed by at least 60% of experts, and six propositions failed to reach the minimum consensus. Eight propositions are consistent with the assumptions of agenda setting theory, three propositions are consistent with the assumptions of use & gratification theory and other propositions are consistent with the assumptions of framing theory, dependency theory, social identity theory, hegemonic theory and disposition based theory. Thefindings demonstrated that TV, as a media, was not solely an effective phenomenon in sports; however, despite its many positive functions, it had several undesirable functions which have not been dealt with enough so far. Ignoring such functional deviations can diminish even the ideal functions of this media in comparison with its various dysfunctions in sports area.

Also according to the t, there is not any significant differences (P<0.05) between the components of research among employees in terms of marital status (t=-1.76).
