Objective: Experiencing stress and emotional disturbances due to ending and separating from a romantic relationship is one of the most painful events for some people. We aimed to evaluate a repetitive transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) protocol on a girl experiencing an unmarried relationship break-up.Methods: We aimed to evaluate a tDCS protocol to the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) (10 sessions, 2 mA current intensity for 20 minutes, one session each day) on a girl experiencing an unmarried relationship break-up (In Iran, the year 2022). In order to evaluate the effect of this protocol, the assessment of love trauma (Love Trauma Inventory (LTI), depression (Beck Depression Inventory (BDI-II), anxiety Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAM-A), Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (CERQ) and Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS) was done at different time intervals, before and after the intervention and follow-up.Results: Repetitive tDCS stimulation protocol with left anodal/right cathodal DLPFC montage may effectively reduce emotional disturbances after the experience of separating from a romantic relationship and lead to improved mood.Conclusion: In order to generalize the introduced stimulation protocol, it is necessary to investigate more in large groups of people who have experienced a romantic relationship breakup.

This study examines the influence of output-based podcasts (OBPs), the mediating effect of funds of identity (FoI), and teacher corrective feedback (CF) on L2 speaking of Iranian pre-intermediate learners and their willingness to communicate (WTC). The study also surveys the attitudes of the experimental groups toward OBPs and CF, as well as their probable attitude and WTC changes over time. To these ends, 60 participants were randomly divided into two experimental groups (the OBPs + CF and theOBPs – CF group) and a control group. Podcasts were created based on themes congruent and incongruent with students' FoI. The data was collected through pretest, immediate and delayed posttests, (attitude, WTC, and FoI) questionnaires, reflective journals, as well as an interview. Results demonstrated that OBPs improved the experimental groups’ speaking ability. Moreover, CF pushed learners to perform better. FoI also proved to be pivotal in triggering learners’ WTC. Learners had positive attitudes toward OBPs and FoI in improving their speaking skill. Furthermore, learners’ WTC changed positively over time as a result of creating podcasts. Integrating FoI into creating podcasts improved learners' performance, increased their WTC, and brought them more satisfaction. As such, OBPs based on students' FoI are suggested to serve as an alternative teaching method to traditional lecturing.  

Objective: The absence or weakness of political structures and institutions in the new Iraqi political and social sphere has led to a political leader, whether in power or in opposition, playing the most significant role in political actions. Therefore, an analysis of political and social trends in Iraq after the fall of Saddam Hussein's regime in 2003 indicates that the Sadr Movement has become the undisputed actor in the Iraqi political and social arena. This is attributed to its reliance on doctrines such as Arab nationalism, adopting an independent approach from other regional actors, fighting corruption, advocating for justice, equality, and eliminating political and social discrimination, and solving Iraq's economic problems.Methodology: The present study aims to systematically examine the evolution and development of the Sadr Movement in Iraq, stemming from the reflections of the Islamic Revolution. It will achieve its objectives and findings through a scientific, integrated approach combining historical, documentary, and in-depth, purposeful interview methods.Research Findings: The findings and documentation of the article indicate that the Sadr Movement, throughout its formation and evolution, which originated from the anti-American and anti-authoritarian discourse of Iran's Islamic Revolution, has gradually, under the leadership of Muqtada Sadr and according to the exigencies of the Iraqi political and social arena, reproduced itself from an anti-authoritarian and anti-occupation movement into a new political and social movement opposing the status quo. It has adopted a pragmatic approach and actions that are often contradictory to other Shia parties and groups by highlighting pluralistic identities, symbols, and policies based on Arab nationalism.Conclusion: The overall process of the Sadr Movement's evolution and development shows that Muqtada Sadr's activism has been very turbulent amidst transformations, and this personality has never considered himself to have a fixed role. Furthermore, Sadr has consistently adopted contradictory and unpredictable stances in his actions and statements, which has surprised political observers. This has caused ambiguity and confusion for other domestic and foreign actors in their interactions with him.

In this paper, the effects of firms’ board gender diversity on their financial statements fraud are examined by considering the role of state ownership. Using a logistic regression model, the role of female managers in financial statement fraud is examined for Iranian listed companies from 2013 to 2022. The methodology of this study is a quantitative and ex-post and the sample of this research is related to 153 companies on the TSE. The results of research regression analysis showed that there is a negative and significant relationship between firms’ board gender diversity and their financial statements fraud. The results also showed that in the group of non-state firms, there is a negative and significant relationship between firms’ board gender diversity and their financial statements fraud, but this relationship is not significant in the group of state-owned firms. According to the research findings, legislators and corporate supervisors should pass laws to encourages corporate gender diversity or requires the minimum number of female directors. Policymakers must also consider the nature of companies' ultimate controllers; Because state control over companies has conflicting effects on the regulatory effectiveness of board gender diversity.

Purpose: The main goal of this research is to design a model of human resource capabilities, with an emphasis on digital knowledge management, for Iran Oil Terminals Company. Method: This research is descriptive-survey in terms of research design, cross-sectional in terms of time, and applied in terms of purpose. It is categorized as exploratory research. The statistical sample consisted of 20 professors and senior managers from the Ministry of Oil in the qualitative section and 100 managers and experts from Iran Oil Terminals Company in the quantitative section. Data collection in the qualitative part was conducted through interviews and data analysis techniques, while the quantitative section utilized questionnaires and structural equation modeling techniques. Findings: The findings were categorized into 114 codes and 26 concepts, which were further grouped into three categories: human-behavioral capabilities, specialized-technical capabilities, and analytical capabilities. The research confirmed that the role of human resource capabilities in the growth and development of organizations is undeniable. It emphasized that human resources management must leverage this intra-organizational capital to foster organizational advancement and excellence. A lack of qualified human resources can be a significant reason for an organization's stagnation. Conclusion: The analysis revealed that human resource capabilities, with an emphasis on digital knowledge management, encompass behavioral, specialized-technical, and analytical capabilities. Ultimately, a suitable model for human resource capabilities, emphasizing digital knowledge management, was proposed for Iran Oil Terminals Company. Human resource capability is valuable, rare, irreplaceable, and difficult to imitate; thus, it is essential for creating sustainable competitive advantages. Proper utilization of human resource capabilities can enhance organizational performance. This study took a process-oriented approach to propose an integrated model that comprehensively considers key variables such as human resource capability and knowledge management effectiveness.
