We are... So, to reframe the inquiry: who are we on a metaphysical level? Which aspects of ourselves are the most universally representative of who we are? How do we fare in the face of the passage of time? For decades, philosophers have debated the concept of diachronic personal identity, which focuses on the question of what keeps us alive. An intricate debate has developed between those who hold the body view (animalism) and those who hold the psychological view (memory) on the question of who we are. The two groups will eventually become so firmly set in their views that they will be unable to compromise. Hylomorphic animalism, or the view that humans are rational animals, living bodies made of prime matter and a rational soul, is an alternative answer to this divisive question that I propose in this study, following in the footsteps of Aristotle and Aquinas. We only survive if matter and rational souls do.

Using the daylighting is the best way to reduce energy consumption in buildings and reaching to the zero energy building. Iranian architecture has to reach experiences in the methods of daylighting. In order to recognize the performance of windows, the relation between the area of a window and the area of a room and the sky viewing angel have been investigated. Seventeen rooms from twelve traditional and old houses from Yazd city in Iran was studied. Items which discussed include the geometry and the proportion of each room, the location of a room in the yard, the location of a window in a wall, the lighting surface ratio to from surface, sky viewing angle of each window in each room in front and section view. Data collection method was field observation and data analysis, Numerical analysis and with using the metrics and computational methods which was introduced in the standard books of natural lighting guide. Then the gathered information was analyzed in two levels: which included room’ s features, a geometry of each room and neighbors. In the neighbors, the distance of front view is very important and play a pivotal role in using the skylight in each room. After investigating rooms, research shows that there is a strong role in a traditional house to use daylight and sunlight in buildings. In terms of natural lighting can be considered the design of the room in two levels, first neighborhood situation and Ratio indoors and outdoors, which lets a room to see the sky and use the skylight. It is very important that this ratio can clear the needed sky view for each city. For instance, the ratio of sky view of Tehran is totally different from Yazd. The second level is about the dimension of a room and windows or geometry or form of a plan which can determine brightness levels and how the distribution in a room. Both of these levels are very significant for having daylighting and sky lighting in a room. As a result of the research, the exact relationship between the area of a window and the height of it with the width of a room and the sky view was found. There is a relationship between the surface of windows and the height of it, the depth of the room, and the visibility of the sky, which can be used to find the window proportions and the depth of a room for using the daylighting. This consequence can inspire the contemporary and young architects or designer to find the ratio of proportion windows and rooms in new buildings with an approach to the traditional architecture of Iran to create better space for users and reduce energy consumption. Moreover, this heritage can be presented for other countries to improve the level of our traditional architecture, when it can be examined by the newest standard of daylighting (CIBSE 2015) so its value is proved for the world of architecture. These rules help designers to consider the Features of the site.

The current research was conducted with the aim of identifying the employment competencies of educational graduates from the perspective of view of employers. This research was applied in terms of purpose and was among the qualitative researches of Grounded Theory type. The participants of this research included 24 employers in the field of educational (interviewers for the Education recruitment exam, directors of non-state educational institutes, directors and recruitment officers of non-state schools, directors of kindergartens and preschools) in Birjand city. Data were collected using semi-structured interview and analyzed by Strauss and Corbin method and using MAXQDA-2020 software. In order to validate the research, two methods of member control and peer review or feedback were used. Consecutive review and comparison of data resulted in the extraction of 28 categories and 6 themes. Data analysis led to the formation of a sub-theory. The model shows that the focal variable is the process of education and teaching skills. The focal variable, under the influence of contextual and intermediate conditions, leads to the formation of the strategies of "being a lifelong learner", "research skills", "planning skills", "classroom skills and classroom management", "purposefulness" and "problem solving skills". became Finally, "increasing employability" was the consequence of this process.

Dear Editor, A Paper with the title "Compliance of operating room sterilization procedures with valid scientific guidelines" was published by Dr. Batoolsadat Sajadinejad et al (1). in, Vol 9-Issue 4. 2021. This study, which is a descriptive-analytical cross-sectional study, aims to investigate the compatibility of current sterilization procedures of operating room environment and instruments (OR) with valid scientific standards in Vali-Asr Hospital, Birjand. The study results suggest that the quality of infection control and sterilization in the ORs of Vali-Asar Hospital, Birjand is not in accordance with the methods recommended by reasonable scientific standards and guidelines. With thanks and respect to the dear authors, some more points from the statistical point of view should be mentioned: Regarding the sample size, 50 questionnaires are mentioned only in the findings section of the abstract, and it is not clear from the text on which statistical formula and source this figure is based. . .

Background and Purpose: Since molar main canal preparation faciliates a good apical obturation and provides necessary room for "post" placement. This study focuses on the outcome of two different instrumentation methods in canal diameter and remained dentin.Materials and Methods: Main canal of 60 upper and lower molars prepared in 4 groups using step back (SB) and passive step back (PSB) techniques gross sections were made in molar roots in 5, 7, 9, 11 millimeters from apical foramina and measurements were done.Results: Canal diameter and width of remained dentin of the instrumented canals were measured by two methods. Results show no significant difference between the methods, using "T test".Conclusion: Both SB and PSB methods are recommended considering "Post" room preparation. Regarding minimal remained dentin in danger zone, care must be taken not to reduce the dentin width to less than one millimeter and not to produce strip perforation.

Introduction: Self-efficacy is the belief in one's ability and ability to perform the task. One way to enhance employees' job self-efficacy is the manager's leadership style. The purpose of this study was to determine the correlation between leadership style of operating room supervisors and operating room technologists' selfefficacy in teaching hospitals of Iran University of Medical Sciences in 2017-2018. Methods: The present study is a descriptive-correlational study which was performed on 220 operating room technologists of hospitals of Iran University of Medical Sciences by stratified random sampling. Data were collected using two questionnaires: "Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire" and "Job Self-Efficacy Questionnaire. " The content validity of the questionnaires was confirmed in previous studies, and their reliability was tested by the retest method. Data were analyzed using SPSS 21 software. Results: Most operating room supervisors (65. 5%) had a transformational leadership style. The majority of operating room technologists (71. 4%) had high self-efficacy. There was a direct and significant correlation between transformational, exchangeable, and non-interference leadership styles of operating room supervisors with occupational self-efficacy (P < 0. 05). Also, the mean score of self-efficacy in transformational and exchangeable leadership styles was higher than non-interventionist leadership styles. Conclusions: There is a direct relationship between job self-efficacy with all three types of leadership styles, but the mean score of self-efficacy in transformational and exchangeable leadership styles is higher than the non-intervention style. Therefore, it is recommended that supervisors use transformational or transactional leadership styles, or a combination of these two leadership styles, depending on the situation in the operating room.
