Writing Article from Theses: An Emphasizes on the Supervisors’ Role

M. Rezaeian
نگارش مقاله از پایاننامههای مقاطع مختلف تحصیلی، امر بسیار مبارکی است که باید همواره مورد توجه و تشویق قرار گیرد. این نکته سبب خواهد شد که نتایج چنین تحقیقاتی با سهولت بیشتری در اختیار سایر دانشمندان قرار گرفته و از این که پایاننامههای دانشجویان بدون استفاده در قفسههای کتابخانهها جای بگیرند، اجتناب شود [1]. با این وجود، ضروری است که اساتید راهنما نقش فعالتری در نگارش و ارسال چنین مقالاتی بر عهده بگیرند [2].
اخیراً، مجله دانشگاه با مواردی روبهرو شده است که نشان میدهند متأسفانه، اساتید راهنما نقش خود را در این زمینه به خوبی ایفا نمینمایند. در بدترین مورد، زمانی که مقالات مجله دانشگاه برای یک شماره در حال چاپ بود، متوجه شدیم که یک مقاله پذیرش شده و آماده چاپ، عیناً در شماره اخیر مجله دیگری به چاپ رسیده است! بلافاصله، این مقاله از نوبت چاپ مجله خارج شده و پس از انجام بررسیهای لازم، معلوم شد که مقاله مورد نظر، بدون نظر استاد راهنما و توسط دانشجو عیناً برای دو مجله ارسال شده است. ارسال همزمان یک مقاله به بیش از یک مجله، عمل غیر اخلاقی است[3] که متأسفانه دانشجوی مورد نظر از آن آگاه نبوده و با استاد راهنمای خود در این زمینه نیز مشورت نکرده است. این مورد و مواردی مشابه این نشان میدهند که اساتید راهنما باید اشراف کاملی بر روی چگونگی نگارش و اقدام برای چاپ مقالات حاصل از پایاننامههای تحت راهنمایی خود داشته باشند، تا دانشجویان آنها به طور ناخواسته مرتکب خلافکاریهای پژوهشی [5-4] نگردند.

Background
and Objective: Possible
implications of psychological disorders for
optimal functionality
in daily life have not received enough
attention in the literature.
To fill this gap, the present study investigated the relationship between
generalized anxiety disorder and obsessive-compulsive personality disorder and
psychological well-being through the mediator variable of passionate obsessive
love.
Materials
and Methods: In this descriptive study, three
hundred students of Lorestan University of Medical Sciences were recruited
using multi-stage cluster sampling method from January to mid-February 2014.
The questionnaires consisted of demographic questions, the Psychological
Well-being Scale (PWBS-18), the Passionate Love Scale (PLS-30) and the Millon
Clinical Multi axial Inventory-III (MCMI-III). Descriptive indices and
structural equations model were used for data analysis.
Results: The results
indicated that the relationship between psychological well-being with obsessive
love
(r= -0.44), generalized anxiety disorder (r= -0.28) and obsessive-compulsive
personality disorder (r=-0/27) was negative and relatively weak (p<0.001).
The results of structural equation modeling demonstrated that, as expected,
this relationship was fully mediated by passionate obsessive love.
Conclusion: These results indicate that
passionate obsessive love may be an important factor through which the negative
effects of generalized anxiety disorder and obsessive-compulsive personality
disorder on psychological well-being are brought about. Psychologists could
draw on these results in order to develop appropriate clinical techniques to
improve romantic relationships in young people, and cultivate emotion
management skills in order to manage the adverse effects of mental disorders.

Background
and Objective: Emotional intelligence is a series of emotions, feelings,
social knowledge and abilities that prepare people to adapt to the environment.
Considering the importance of emotional intelligence and lack of information
about its quantity among students, this study aimed to investigate emotional
intelligence of students.
Materials and Methods: This
cross-sectional study was conducted on 303 students of the Jundishapur, Azad
and Chamran Universities of Ahvaz in 2014. Data was collected by demographic
checklist and emotional intelligence Bradbry-Graves questionnaire and analyzed
by SPSS19 software using descriptive (mean and standard deviation)
and inferential (t-test, ANOVA, Tukey) statistical methods.
Results: Emotional
intelligence of most students (77.23%) was in the middle range. Mean of
emotional intelligence score of students was 77.02±9.26 and the mean scores of self-consciousness,
self-management, social awareness and relationship management subscales were
82.81±5.58, 70.47±13.93, 81.36±7.30 and 73.44±10.26, respectively. Results
showed no significant relationship between total emotional intelligence and
students age, sex, job, marital status, degree, overall grade point average and
kind of university, while a significant relationship was seen between some
emotional intelligence subscales and above variables (p<0.05).
Conclusion: As emotional intelligence of most students was medium and
regarding its importance in students’ health promotion and their academic
improvement, it is suggested that the university authorities should pay more
attention to developing educational programs in the dimension of emotional
intelligence among students.

Background
and Objective: Eating disorders are common mental / physical health disorders
which cause psychosomatic and psychological dysfunction and also the poor quality of life and even death. The purpose of this study was to investigate
the prevalence of eating disorders among adolescents of Gonabad
city.
Materials and Methods: This is a cross-sectional study. The samples were
attained from the first- and second- grade students of 20 high schools of
Gonabad city in 2014. They were selected by stratified randomization and Participated
in this study. Data were obtained using eating attitudes questionnaire (26-
EAT). Chi-square test was used for data analysis.
Results: The participants were in the 13-18 age range with an
average of 15.50±1.70. In this study, 15.7% of
students were at risk for eating disorders. Mental anorexia disorder and
bulimia were, 1.1% and 3.2%, respectively.
There was a significant
difference in eating disorder between girls and boys (p= 0.001). The prevalence
of this disorder also had a significant association with age and educational
level (p= 0.001). The prevalence of mental anorexia disorder was similar between
the opposite sex (p= 0.079) and various educational levels (p=0.115). The results showed that the prevalence of
eating disorders among
girls is higher. There was a
significant association in prevalence of this disorder among these opposite
sexes (p=0.014), with different ages and grads (p=0.003).
Conclusion: The results showed that the eating disorders are more
common in girls which may be due to the expansion of the West culture, poor

Background
and Objective: Avoidance of thoughts related to traumatic events
in traumatized people can play a role in incidence and persistence of posttraumatic
stress disorder (PTSD). Given the importance of this issue, the current study was conducted in
order to determine the role of experiential
avoidance and mindfulness
in predicting the symptoms of the PTSD in people exposed to trauma.
Materials and Methods: In this
descriptive study, 100 subjects were selected through the stratified random sampling
from traumatized people who are supported by Emdad Committee and Bonyade Shahid
organization located in Gilan Gharb city. Mississippi
Scale for PTSD, Acceptance and Action
Questionnaire and Mindfulness Questionnaire were used for gathering data. Collected data were analyzed by
Pearson’s correlation coefficient test and multiple linear regression.
Results: The
correlation results showed that the symptoms of PTSD have positive relationship
with experiential avoidance (r=0.768 p<0.001) and negative relationship
with total score of mindfulness(r=-0.351
p<0.001) and components of observing (r=-0.328 p<0.001), mindful
describing (r=-0.420 p<0.001), non-judgmental acceptance (r=-0.263
p=0.009). The results of linear regression analysis showed that 63% of variance of
posttraumatic symptoms was positively explained by experiential avoidance and
negatively by mindfulness (mindful
describing).
Conclusion: The results of the current
study show that the avoidance of thoughts related to the
traumatic events and low mindfulness can play a role in
predicting the symptoms of PTSD in traumatized people.

questionnaire was used. The first section has been designated to demographic
questions including gender, age, the history of teaching, the administrative
type of engagement, academic rank, number of presented credits, administrative
duties, department, school and participation in communication skills workshops.
The second part consisted of questions of Communication Skills Test-Revised
based on Likert's five-choice scale. The data were analyzed by
descriptive and analytical statistical methods including correlation
coefficient, and comparison of means tests.
Results: The score of communication skills
in our study was equal to 92.56±7.25. There was no statistically significant
relation between communication skills score and variables such as age, gender,
the history of teaching, the number of presented credits, department, school,
academic rank, administrative duties, the administrative type of engagement,
and participation in communication skills workshops.

Background
and Objective: Staphylococcus aureus is a major pathogen of human in the world.
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus is associated with
nosocomial infections. Recently, staphylococcal infections have been associated
with the community. The purpose of this study was to isolate and identify Staphylococcus
aureus virulence Panton-Valentine leukocidin (PVL) and methicillin resistance genes in clinical
samples using PCR techniques.
Materials
and Methods:In this experimental study after
collecting samples, it was performed biochemical and microbial tests and then antibiotic
susceptibility testing by disk diffusion method according to CLSI guidelines
with antibiotics of different groups. To identify the virulence and resistance
genes multiplex PCR test was used.
Results: The findings showed that the prevalence of methicillin-resistant
gene (mecA) in clinical samples are 50% and PVL 2.5%, respectively. Among the
antibiotics, resistance to azithromycin, linezolid,
ofloxacin and methicillin were 32.5%, 35%,
27.5% and 27.5%, respectively.
Conclusion :There is a serious threat for
public health because of the importance of Staphylococcus aureus as a
major pathogen in developing countries and due to the increasing use of
antibacterial agents. Multiplex PCR is a simple, sensitive, inexpensive,
relatively quick, and very unique test to identify multiple of genes,
simultaneously.

Background
and Objective: Of
all blood group systems, RH is one of the most important blood groups, which
its compatibility is one of the essential principals of transfusion. Two genes
(RhD and RhCE) locate on chromosome 1, and encode the Rh proteins. RhD is an
immunogenic antigen. We describe a rare Rh phenotype D-- in this report.
Case Report: A forty- nine- year- old man,
who received two O+ packed cells once time was studied in this report. He was admitted
to hospital for kidney transplantation that reiterative mismatch cross matches
were seen. Serologic tests of patient showed a rare Rh phenotype D-- with
frequency of one in ten thousand.
Conclusion: Considering the importance of Rh
in blood transfusion complications, typing erythrocyte and preparing autologous
blood will reduce transfusion complications.
