The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of movement therapy on visual-motor errors of students with special learning disabilities in schools in Tehran. This research was conducted in the form of a quasi-experimental study with a control group and within the framework of a pre-test and post-test design for both experimental and control groups. The sample group consisted of 30 male students with special learning disabilities living in Tehran who were selected by cluster random sampling and then randomly assigned to the experimental and control groups, 15 in each group. The rate of visual-motor errors of the participants in this study was measured by the visual-motor test of Gestalt port in pre-test and post-test. Movement therapy program intervention was performed on the experimental group for 12 sessions of 90 minutes three days a week. After the end of the movement therapy program, the post-test was performed for both groups. The results of analysis of covariance showed that the rate of visual-motor errors in the experimental group decreased significantly at the confidence level (P <0.05). Therefore, it can be said that movement therapy can reduce the rate of visual-motor errors in students with special learning disabilities.

The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between organizational learning and communication skills with organizational conflict in the staff of the Education Department of the four districts of Karaj. The study method was correlational. The statistical population of the study included all employees of the Education Department of the four districts of Karaj. According to the statistical population, a sample of 265 people was selected by stratified random sampling. Data collection tools were Nif Organizational Learning Questionnaire (2001), Baron and Hadadi Communication Skills Questionnaire (1986), and Shirkhani Organizational Conflict Questionnaire (2011). Data analysis was performed using Pearson correlation coefficient and multiple regression test (stepwise). Findings of this study showed that there is a relationship between team learning and information skills variables with organizational conflict (P <0.05) and team learning and information skills variables have the predictive power of organizational conflict. It seems that by cultivating the spirit of learning in the organization and also improving the communication skills of employees, individual and organizational conflicts can be prevented.

Using Morgan table, the sample size was 86 individuals who were selected using simple random sampling method. Data collection tools were standard questionnaires of transformational leadership of Bass and Olivier (2000) and job burnout of Maslach and Jackson (1981). Data analysis was performed using multivariate regression method. The findings of this study showed that there is a negative relationship between the variables of ideal influence and individual consideration with job burnout (P <0.01) and transformational leadership style is effective on job burnout. Therefore, it is expected that by changing the leadership style to transformational leadership, positive consequences will be achieved and the job burnout of school teachers will be prevented.

The research method was descriptive-correlation. The statistical population of this study included teachers and male and female elementary school students in Chabaksar. 80 teachers and 200 students were selected using simple random sampling and cluster random sampling. Teachers answered the questions of the Communication Skills Questionnaire (Quindam, 2004) and teaching style (Gerash, 1996), and students answered the questions of the Academic Achievement Motivation Questionnaire (Walrand, 1992). Data analysis using stepwise regression method showed that the variables of classroom management practices and listening skills are the best predictors for the variable of academic achievement motivation, and there is a relationship between classroom management practices and communication skills with students' academic achievement motivation (P <0.01). As a result, teachers can benefit from effective classrooming styles and communication skills to increase motivation for academic achievement and prevent student burnout.

The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between early maladaptive schemas and burnout with the mediating role of psychological capital. The research method was descriptive-correlational in nature and applied in terms of purpose. The statistical population of the study was primary school principals in Tehran engaged in service in the school year 1397-98. The sample size was determined 200 individuals and selected using a multi-stage cluster sampling method. For data collection, the Lutans (2007) Psychological Capital Questionnaire, Maslach & Jackson (1985) burnout questionnaires, and Young's early maladaptive schemas (2006) were used. Their validity was confirmed by experts and academics and their reliability was confirmed by Cronbach's alpha coefficient test. In order to analyze the data, the structural equation method was used using LISREL statistical software, eighth edition. The results showed an early maladaptive schema and its dimensions (cut and rejection, impaired self-control and function, impaired limitations, other orientation and excessive distraction and inhibition) have a negative relationship with psychological capital and its dimensions, and a positive and significant relationship with burnout. Psychological capital has a negative and significant relationship with burnout and finally, psychological capital has a mediating role in the relationship between initial maladaptive schemas and burnout.
