In this study, 48 sub-jects participated in 3 experiments in which the purer role of temporal properties of stimului were examined. Data were provided by a tem-poral oddball paradigm and the analysis was implemented by repeated measures analysis of variance in experiments 1 and 3. In experiment 2, a psychometric function was used to deter-mine the modified estimations in temporal pro-cessing system. Findings showed that despite removing the non-temporal change in expe-riment 1, the temporal change between repea-ted/non-repeated stimuli can produce time con-traction and dilation respectively. The result was only for the auditory system. In experi-ment 2, an efficient threshold for temporal oddball was suggested. Using the updated threshold, experiment 3 revealed concordant repeated/non-repeated effects on time percep-tion in both modalities.http://psychological-research.com/Article/32901cognitive and sensory processing sensory modality psychophysics method time perception method of constant stimuliper Psychological Researchپژوهش های روانشناختی1019-9616 1019-96162020-112223153articlemohsen Golparvardrmgolparvar@gmail.com1Reza Sadeghisadeghish@yahoo.com2Abstract: This research was administered with the aim of strengthening success by psycho-logical capital through weakening job stress among female teachers. The statistical population of the study consisted of female elementary school teachers in Isfahan city, of which 221 teachers were selected by simple random sampling method and then responded to Psychological Capital Questionnaire (PCQ), Job Stress Questionnaire (JSQ) and Career Success Questionnaire (CSQ). Data were analyzed using Pearson’s correlation coefficient and structural equation modeling (SEM). Results revealed that there is a negative significant relationship between psychological capital and job stress, but there is a positive significant relationship between psychological capital and career success (P<0.01). Results of structural equation modeling and mediation analysis indicated that job stress is a partial mediator on the relationship between psycho-logical capital and career success.http://psychological-research.com/Article/32902career success job stress psycho-logical capital female teachersper Psychological Researchپژوهش های روانشناختی1019-9616 1019-96162020-112225475articleMostafa ZareanZarean@tabrizu.ac.ir1Shahriar Shahidishahriarshahidi@hotmail.com2Fons van de VijverFons.vandeVijver@uvt.nl3Mohsen DehghaniM.Dehghani@sbu.ac.ir4Professor, Department of Psychology and education.Shahid Beheshti University, Tehran, Iran.The present study aimed to investigate the cultural dimensions of anxiety and depression in Azeri, Kurd, and Fars (Persian) ethnic groups in Iran. In a cross sectional qualitative design, 44 individuals with emotional problems participated in an in-depth interview including perceptions of emotional disorders, their causal factors, and help seeking behaviors. Data were analyzed using conventional content analysis. Primary findings represented relative similarity between these three groups in the reported themes, which could be summarized in three main themes, namely negative emotionality, somatization, and maladaptive cognition. Perceived etiological factors for emotional disorders included more psycho-logical processes rather than social and environmental components. The extracted themes consisted of a heterogeneous set of psychological constructs, and provided further evidence to reiterate the importance of contextual variables such as culture and ethnicity in assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of emotional disorders.http://psychological-research.com/Article/32903cultural dimensions anxiety depression emotional disorders Iranper Psychological Researchپژوهش های روانشناختی1019-9616 1019-96162020-112227694articleFariborz Nikdelfnikdel@yu.ac.ir1دانشگاه یاسوجThe present study aimed to investigate the relationship between coping styles and critical thinking skills of university students with their perceived stress after Yasouj earthquake (April 2018). The research method was non-experimental and correlational. Statistical population of the study consisted of students of Yasouj universities in the academic year of 2017-18. The sample of the study included 280 students selected through multistage cluster random sampling. Perceived Stress Scale (PSS), California Critical Thinking Disposition Inventory (CCTDI), and Coping Innventry for Stressful Situations (CISS) were administered. The results showed that there was a negative and significant relation-ship between problem-oriented coping style and students' perceived stress. Also, there was a positive and significant relationship between students' emotion-oriented coping style and their perceived stress. The relationship between avoidant coping style and students' perceived stress was not significant. Critical thinking had significant negative relationship with students' perceived stress. The results of step wise regression analysis showed that emotion-oriented coping style, critical thinking, and problem-oriented coping style were respectively predictors of students' perceived stress.http://psychological-research.com/Article/32904critical thinking skills coping styles perceived stressper Psychological Researchپژوهش های روانشناختی1019-9616 1019-96162020-1122295113articleEsmaeil Naserie.naseri@ihcs.ac.ir1Abstract: The book "Science of Mind or Psychology from the Standpoint of Education" by Ali Akbar Siassi (1938) is mentioned as the first academic textbook of psychology in Iran. In this article, an attempt has been made to review and critique this work according to the book review method of the Council for the Study of Humanities Texts. This work has most of the apparent indicators of the books, including the title page, preface, table of contents, list of terms, list of names, and list of gravures (photos, figures, tables, and diagrams). The lack of an introduction, both at the beginning of the book and at the beginning of the chapters, and the lack of a list of sources at the end of the book are among the most significant shortcomings of this work in the later form. In terms of content, the relevance of the book's content to the current topics of general psychology, the organization of the book's chapters according to the topics of the science of mind, attention to empirical psycho-logy, pioneering word retrieval, attention to educating children and adolescents, examining important theories of psychology and Criticism of them, and attention to Iranian sources, are among the strengths of the book. The weaknesses in referencing and not updating the latest editions of the book, are among the most significant shortcomings of this work.http://psychological-research.com/Article/32905psychology science of mind shape critique content critiqueper Psychological Researchپژوهش های روانشناختی1019-9616 1019-96162020-11222114128articleMehdi Ganjiganjimehdi@gmail.com1mehrdad sabetmehrdadsabet@riau.ac.ir2Hamzeh Ganjir.s@riau.ac.ir3Khadijeh Abolmaaliabolmaalialhoseyni@yahoo.com4The goal of this study was to examine the correlation between personality traits and use or abuse of hallucinogens. The statistical population consisted of all Iraninans who had used a hallucinogen at least once or abused these drugs. The sample group consisted of 100 men and women users or abusers and the control group consisted of 100 individuals who had never used these drugs. Participants answered an online survey consisting of a questionnaire for demographic background and the NEO Five Factor Personality Inventory (NEO-FFI). Demographic, personality, and hallucinogenic drug use data were analysed using logistic regression analysis method. The analysis revealed that users/abusers of hallucinogenic drugs, compared to nonusers, are more open to new experiences and are more agreeable.http://psychological-research.com/Article/32906personality hallucinogens openness agreeableness per Psychological Researchپژوهش های روانشناختی1019-9616 1019-96162020-11222129136articlezohreh Majdabadimajdabadi@yahoo.com1نداردhttp://psychological-research.com/Article/32975Evaluating Web Resources Checklistper Psychological Researchپژوهش های روانشناختی1019-9616 1019-96162020-11222137148articleAhmad Behpajoohbehpajooh@ut.ac.ir1Hamed Maghrebiahmad.behpajooh@gmail.com2University of TehranUniversity of Tehranنداردhttp://psychological-research.com/Article/32976bibliographyAttention Deficit #Hyperactivity Disorder #(ADHD)#
