Abstract: 

Objectives: In order to remove the difficulties of learning the verses of Holy Quran and facilitate, the relevant data were examined in the course of the present research, taking advantage of optimization of means of such learning. It should be noted that encoding such data (i.e. the verses) takes place in the phonological cycle and their retrieval takes place by triggering the implicit memory. Method: 120 school-boys, aged 15-16, were divided into an experimental group (N=60) and a control group (N=60). The subjects in the experimental group learned and memorized 21 selected verses, using modern learning methods. The subjects in the control group learned and memorized the same verses through traditional approaches. Two written tests were administrated to assess the subjects’ retrieval. After the administration of the first written test, the subjects were classified into three groups: weak, average and excellent. Findings: After a Chi square test was administrated, the results of the first and the second written tests demonstrated a significant difference. Further, the results of the first and the second written tests obtained from the Multiple-Sentence Logistic Regression Test, demonstrated that the subjects who were classified as “weak” in the initial assessments, had the chance to improve and move to the higher class. This chance was respectively 88 and 67 times greater among the ones who received modern instructions as compared to the ones who were taught by traditional approaches.

Abstract: 

Objectives: The present study was designed to investigate children’s motor skills and their neurological functions. Since children’s primary behavioral response is of the motor type, and since motor skills start with reflexive activities and become more complex as the central nervous system develops and gradually relate to higher neurological centers, an investigation of children’s motor development would provide insights into their neurological functionings. Method: 20 primary school boys, with mathematics learning disorder, were selected. Their neurological functionings were compared with those of 20 3rd and 4th grade normal school boys studying in Tehran using the Raven Progressive Matrix Test for Children, the Mathematics Learning Disorder Diagnostic Test and the Lincoln-Ozertsy Motor Development Test. The date were analyzed through correlation coefficients and t-test procedures. Findings: The findings demonstrated that general motor skills were more developed among normal students than those suffering from mathematics learning disorder. Furthermore, major and fine motor skills, motor coordination, motor speed and static balance were more developed in normal school children than in children with mathematics learning disorder students.

Abstract: 

Objectives: Stressful life events, coping strategies and attitude toward life have been known as important components in tendency toward substance abuse. This study, investigates coping patterns and dysfunctional attitudes among a group of clients at Mashhad Welfare Center as substance abusers comparing with those of control group. Method: 50 male substance abusers were selected randomly and matched with control group with regard to age, education, job and income level. Dysfunctional Attitude Scale and Coping Skills Questionnaire were applied in this study. Findings: Results showed that during stressful periods of life, substance abusers had weaker problem solving strategies, cognitive evaluation and social support compared with control group. Conclusion: This study showed that cognitive therapy and coping skills training could be beneficial for primary and secondary prevention.

Abstract: 

Objectives: The study was meant to measure the effects, of Ramadan fasting on students studying at the School of Nursery, Midwifery and Paramedics at Rafsanjan Medical College. Method.: The subjects comprised 67 randomly selected students (N=67) from various fields of study who managed to fast at least for 21 days, during the holy month of Ramadan. The research instruments consisted of a demographic questionnaire and the Coopersmith Self-Esteem Scale. The assessment was carried out on two occasions: 10 days before and 10 days after Ramadan. Findings: A t-test was administrated and the results showed a significant difference between the subjects’ self-esteem on the two occasions. Conclusion: The result demonstrated that Ramadan fasting significantly increased self-esteem among students.

Abstract: 

Objectives: The present study was designed to examine, within the framework of Cognitive-Behavioral Theory, the efficiency of cognitive-behavioral therapy in the treatment of depression among young adults. Method: Three case studies were carried out, with 15-17 year old females, suffering from depression. They were selected from among the patients referred to a psychiatrist’s office. Each subject received eight sessions of individual cognitive-behavioral therapy, with each session lasting 45-60 minutes. The sessions were held twice a week. The subjects were assessed using the Beck Depression Inventory and the Dysfunctional Attitude Scale at three point, pre-treatment, post-treatment and follow-up one-month after the end of treatment. Results: The results demonstrated that cognitive-behavioral therapy was effective in reducing both dysfunctional attitudes and depressive symptoms among young adults.

Abstract: 

Objectives: The study was designed to investigate the impairment of the ability to discriminate between nouns and verbs, resulting from the damage to the left-hemisphere, a condition which could lead to linguistic disorders proportionate to the depth and extent of the damage. Various experimental and clinical investigations have demonstrated that nouns and verbs may, independent of one another, become subject to dissociation as a consequence of various types of brain damage. Method: The subjects were 20 Persian speaking patients with aphasia (8 females and 12 males), aged 33-76, receiving treatment in speech therapy centers in Tehran. The data were collected through a Persian Aphasia Test. Findings: The descriptive and analytical research findings demonstrated a significant relationship between the ability to use nouns and the damage to the temporal lobe of the left hemisphere, near the angular gyrus and the corpus callosum. A similar relationship was found between the ability to use verbs and the damage in the frontal lobe of the left hemisphere. The important issue here is the difference in the location of damage to the areas of brain responsible for discriminating nouns and verbs, an issue that cannot be ignored.
