Therefore, this research was aimed at redefining the concept of happiness under the title of happy-living or wise happiness based on Ferdowsi's Shahnameh. This research was basic in terms of purpose, and qualitative research based on the grounded theory method. Verse was considered as the unit of analysis. The ground of data was taken from text of Ferdowsi's Shahnameh, revision of Jalal Khaleghi Motlagh. Statistical analysis based on the process of open coding, axial and selective coding was performed in MAXQUDA2018. In order to validate the designed model, the point of view of experts and researchers was used with the purposeful sampling method. The reliability of the coding of the components was found to be 0.89 based on the Kappa index. The findings showed that the happy-living or wise happiness in Ferdowsi's Shahnameh consists of 12 sub-components of happy-living based on moral principles, unchangeable difficulties acceptance ability, purposeful learning in the direction of living life, having rational thoughts and freedom from disturbing thoughts, focus on the present time, positive relationship, emotion regulation and impulsive self-control, spiritual relation with god, courageous and resilient confrontation with life's difficulties and sufferings, hope for the future and optimism in difficult conditions, physical activity and avoiding laziness and meeting the basic material needs of life had the most extracted free codes, respectively.

The goal of this study was identifying of existing and future opportunities and threats in various dimensions in relation with mental health in the face of coronavirus; to be able to draw positive perspectives and threatening issues. This qualitative research was conducted based on the Delphi research method by holding several sessions and three stages of strategic analysis. To collect of the data, theoretical and research background review and researcher-made questionnaire were used to obtain the opinions of experts. The statistical sample consisted of 17 experts in the fields of psychology, sociology, educational sciences and law who were purposefully selected. The findings show that experts believe that the basic available and forthcoming opportunities in the face of the crisis of coronavirus pandemic can be classified in the education, economic, personal, social, family, medical and legal fields and threats of coronavirus is observed in the psychological, sociological, economic, familial and cultural domains And these areas have the ability to affect the mental health of individuals. The results of this study showed that at first, the peoples, various societies, organizations and governments should not only pay attention to the basic dangers of the spread of the coronavirus pandemic, also perceive the current crisis can create opportunities in which both individuals and various organizations by making radical adaptations in a fundamental transformation, prepare themselves for life in the current turbulent world, and this will only be achieved if the current crisis be conceived as an opportunity; Not a mere threat

The aim of this study was to develop a model of psychological consequences of anxiety of corona epidemic and to investigate the mediating role of spiritual health. In terms of purpose, is an applied research and in nature, is descriptive-correlation. The statistical population included all residents of Lorestan province in 1398 that had faced with effects of coronavirus epidemic. The sample based on Cochran formula was 384 men and women. Sampling was done by cluster sampling and questionnaires were completed by internet survey. The Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD-7), Mello & Worrell's (2007) time attitude, Paloutzian & Ellison's Spiritual Health (1983), and the researcher - constructed Aggression and Relationship quality Questionnaire were used to collect the data. Generalized anxiety had a positive effect on the level of aggression and a negative effect on the quality of relationship and positive attitude toward the future. Spiritual health mediated the adverse effects of pervasive anxiety on positive future attitudes and quality of relationship with the family, but didnt show mediating effect on aggression. Due to the mental threats of corona epidemic, the necessity of recognizing the mediating factors is clearly seen, and the findings of this study to confirm the mediating role of spiritual health provide a strategic tool for the country's psychologists and planners. The results of this study suggest that spiritual health can be used as a cornerstone in maintaining the health of individuals as a fundamental factor in moderating the effects of generalized anxiety due to the corona crisis.

This study was conducted with the aim of testing the causal relation among task value, cognitive engagement, achievement emotions, academic self-regulation, and mathematics achievement. For this, 560 students (267 boys and 293 girls) were chosen from the high school 3rd graders who studied mathematics in high schools of Tehran by multistage clustering sampling and answered the task value subscale questionnaire (Pintrich and DeGroot, 1991), Cognitive Involvement Scale (revised (2F-R-LPQ)) (KamberBigs and Liong, 2004), Pre-exam Development Scale (AEQ) (Pekran, Quitz, Teets and Perry,2005) and achievement Self- regulation Scale (Pintrich and DeGroot, 1990). The results of structural equation analysis with use of experimental data showed that academic achievement is influenced directly and indirectly by predictor variables such as task value, cognitive engagement, academic achievement emotions and academic self- regulation. The results of this study show that all the indices except for AGFI were reported highly satisfying and the model fits the data well and this points to the linear relation between latent variables and structures. Consequently, the general hypothesis of the study which is “the preconceived pattern of causal relation between task value and academic achievement with the mediation of cognitive engagement, academic achievement emotions and academic self-regulation fits the data patterns” was confirmed.
