The effectiveness of creative performance on promoting altruism, empathy, and self-control in preschool children in Kermanshah city
Fatemeh Shaterabadi 2026purpose: This study aimed to investigate the impact of creative drama on enhancing prosocial behavior, empathy, and self-regulation in preschool children. Metod: The study employed a quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group. The statistical population included all preschool students enrolled in the 2024-2025 academic year. The sample consisted of 40 conveniently selected children (20 girls and 20 boys), randomly assigned to either the experimental or control group (20 children each). Both groups were pretested using three instruments: the Prosocial Scale from Goodman’s Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (1997), the Parent-Reported Empathy Quotient (EQ) by Auyeung et al. (2009), and the Self-Restraint Scale by Babadi & Meshkani (2010). The experimental group then participated in a one-month creative drama program (nine one-hour sessions) focused on enhancing prosocial behavior, empathy, and self-regulation, while the control group received no intervention. After the program, both groups were reassessed. Four weeks after the sessions, a follow-up test was administered to parents. The collected data on prosocial behavior, empathy, and self-regulation were analyzed using software and ANCOVA. Results: The ANCOVA results revealed a significant difference between the experimental and control groups. Children in the experimental group showed higher scores in prosocial behavior, empathy, and self-regulation after the creative drama intervention compared to the control group. Additionally, the data indicated that girls in both groups scored higher on average than boys, with female participants demonstrating greater improvement. The follow-up test confirmed the lasting effects of the intervention in the experimental group. Conclusion: The findings suggest that creative drama positively influences prosocial behavior, empathy, and self-regulation in preschool children, enhancing their performance in these areas. In other words, creative drama proves to be an effective, engaging, and enjoyable educational tool for fostering these skills in children. Thus, it is recommended that creative drama be utilized in educational, clinical, and therapeutic settings as an indirect yet fun and interactive teaching technique to address challenges related to prosocial behavior, empathy, and self-regulation. Keywords: Creative drama, prosocial behavior, empathy, self-regulation, preschool children

Factors affecting psychological Entitlement in female single child adolescent female: a mixed study
Shokofeh Rahimi 2025Entitlement, as a psychological construct, has a significant impact on the quality of life and the level of satisfaction of individuals with it. This phenomenon, which is associated with the belief in excessive superiority and entitlement over others, can affect various aspects of individual and social life in various ways. One of the reasons for the importance of this research is related to the behavioral problems that most only children have as a result of being the center of attention in the family and the way they interact with interpersonal and social relationships. The purpose of the present study was to identify the factors that cause psychological Entitlement in single-child adolescent girls in Kermanshah. This research is applied in terms of purpose and mixed in terms of method (quantitative-qualitative). The statistical population of the study included all female students with high psychological Entitlement who were studying in the second secondary school in Kermanshah in the academic year 1403-1404. Sampling was carried out in two stages. The aim of the first quantitative stage was to identify female students with high psychological Entitlement. For this purpose, 150 students from the second secondary school in Kermanshah were selected using a multi-stage cluster sampling method to complete the psychological Entitlement questionnaire. Then, in the second stage of qualitative research, a phenomenological study was conducted using a purposive sampling method to examine the factors affecting psychological Entitlement in female students with only one child. For this purpose, participants were selected from 26 female students with high psychological Entitlement who had obtained a score higher than the standard deviation for interviews. Qualitative data were collected using a semi-structured interview and analyzed using the Colaizzi method. The interviews reached theoretical saturation with fourteen participants, meaning that in both The last interview did not extract any new information. Analysis of the experiences of female students with high psychological Entitlement led to the identification and extraction of 66 open codes, 14 axial codes, and 3 selected codes. The results of the study showed that a more accurate understanding and recognition of the characteristics of Entitlement, especially among adolescent girls with only children, can be of great importance. Paying attention to the environmental resources affecting this group can also help us design and implement preventive measures and practical interventions.

Shima Shahsavari 2025The aim of this study was to evaluate the economic value of university library services and understand the return on investment in the central library of Razi University. The present research method is a descriptive-survey type that was conducted using the Return on Investment (ROI) method. The statistical population of this study is all male and female students at the undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral levels of Razi University who were studying in 1402-1403.

The research findings showed that more than 70 percent of students are willing to pay an annual amount to receive library services, and the average willingness of students to pay annually is 35 thousand Tomans. The highest percentage of students' willingness to pay is related to interlibrary loan services, database services, and loan services, respectively. Also, regarding demographic factors, the findings indicate that all demographic variables have a positive effect on individuals' willingness to pay, except for the income variable, people who stated that they had no income were not willing to pay. Also, the findings regarding the rate of return on investment indicate that in fact, the central library had a negative rate of return on investment considering the expenses it incurred. Considering the willingness to pay stated by most of the patrons, the central library of Razi University can charge users for more services. Also, the results indicate that the services that the central library provides to students have to some extent failed to meet their needs and demands in order to meet their information needs, and the library has not gained any benefit from this. Keywords: Economic valuation, rate of return on investment (ROI), central library, Razi University.

Metodology: The current research is applied and conducted by survey method. The statistical population includes all students in the Faculty of Social Sciences of Razi University who are studying in the second semester of the academic year 1400-01. To collect the research data, Torrance's standard creative thinking questionnaire, Ricketts' critical thinking questionnaire, and also a questionnaire taken from a research entitled: "Information seeking behavior by researchers and faculty members" were used, which is valid. It was approved by the professors of information science and epistemology. To measure reliability, it was ensured by using the latest version of software (version 26) and by using Cronbach's alpha method. In the end, the data of this research was measured and analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Findings: The highest average of information-seeking behavior of students is in the field of psychology and the lowest average is related to the field of social sciences. The average score of the respondents in creative thinking is 84.52, which is in the above average level of creativity. The score of 72/101 in this research for critical thinking shows that the level of critical thinking in the mentioned society is very high. The results of Pearson's correlation test regarding the relationship between creative thinking and information-seeking behavior of students showed the lack of significant relationship between these two variables. Nevertheless, there is a very weak correlation between the two components of flexibility with the amount of Internet use, and the expansion component with the amount of use of various information sources. Also, the results of the Pearson correlation test indicate that there is no significant relationship between the two variables of critical thinking and information-seeking behavior, but there is a weak correlation between the two components of perfection with communication channels, and an average correlation between the components There is a commitment to barriers to access and use of information. In terms of creative thinking and critical thinking, no significant difference was observed in gender, education, levels and age of students, but there was a significant difference between different groups. In terms of creative thinking and critical thinking, no significant difference was observed in gender, education, levels and age of students, but there was a significant difference between different groups. Conclusion: The level of creative and critical thinking is desirable in contrast to the information-seeking behavior of students of the Faculty of Social Sciences. Despite the importance of the library in meeting the need for information, its use is not a priority for students. Problems such as: not using scientific and specialized search engines, not being familiar with the features of search engines and Boolean operators, insufficient mastery of the English language are evident among students.

A historical study of Islamophobia in Hollywood cinema (case study of films related to the history of Islam 2001-2018)
2021Abstract This study seeks to examine the history of Islamophobia and the role of Hollywood cinema. A look at the history of Islam shows that the main goals at the head of this religious school are planned against "colonialism" and "infidelity". In; In the early days of Islam, we witnessed wars to spread the religion of Islam throughout the world. This study sought to examine the alternative futures of Hollywood cinema activities in the field of Islam by using the scenario method with the critical uncertainty approach and using Mick Mac software. According to the results, the two drivers of the US National Security Doctrine and globalization have the most uncertainty, and from their intersection in two axes, four scenarios (terrorist scenario, third world scenario, globalized scenario, alien scenario) ) About the alternative futures of Hollywood cinema in the field of Islam. In the meantime, Hollywood cinema has focused more on this issue than others and has produced films whose main message is the spread of Islamophobia in the world. Today, the knowledge of history has found many tools and resources; Sources that did not play a role in the study of history in ancient times but now play a decisive role in the history and policies of countries; One of these tools is the media. "The media also play a major role in the political-diplomatic propaganda tools of governments. y defending foreign policy and by valuing and valuing diplomatic discourses and media images, they play a justifying role in legitimizing government policies and conveying the messages of countries' diplomats to the elites and the world. "In addition to Hollywood, Western news networks play a major role in the most important new propaganda tools to combat Muslim beliefs in the field of anti-Islam." From the contents of this study, it was concluded that Islamophobia seems to be a type of perception management that is mostly done by the media. These perceptions seem to be guided by various goals, including preventing the growth of Islam in the West and the internal destruction of Muslims. Regarding the historical course of the developments of Islamophobia in Hollywood cinema, it should be said that this issue has become more prominent as it gets closer to the contemporary time, and in the films under review, made from 2001 to 2018, the prevalence of Islamophobia has become more serious. they have payed. Factors influencing Hollywood cinema's approach to Islamophobia are taking a stand against Iran's justice-seeking policies to build a world without discrimination and power superiority over the rest of the world, which has had a detrimental effect on contemporary history.
