The present study aimed to predict job burnout in employed men and women based on work-family conflict mediated by perceived social support and psychological capital. This study is applied in terms of its purpose and descriptive in terms of its method and is of the correlation type. The statistical population of this study consists of all men and women employed in governmental and non-governmental offices and organizations in Tehran in the spring of 2024, of which 237 people were selected through available sampling. The research tools included the Job Burnout Questionnaire by Maslach et al. (2001), Multidimensional Measure of Work–Family Conflict by Carlson et al. (2000), Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support by Zimet et al. (1990), and the Psychological Capital Questionnaire by Luthans et al. (2007). The structural model fit was examined using structural equation modeling and SPSS and AMOS software. The results showed that burnout in employed women and men is predicted based on work-family conflict (P=0.001, β=0.500). Burnout in employed women and men is predicted based on work-family conflict with the mediation of perceived social support (P=0.001, Z=5.33). Burnout in employed women and men is predicted based on work-family conflict with the mediation of psychological capital (P=0.001, Z=5.07).

Aim: Issues related to academic adjustment are a major concern among students, because academic adjustment or non-adjustment has broad effects on students' overall development. Therefore, the present study aimed to investigate the relationship between parental phubbing and children's academic adjustment with the mediating role of loneliness in students. Method: The research method was correlational and, more precisely, structural equation modeling. The statistical population of the study included all ninth-grade male and female students in the academic year 2024-2025 in Yazd city. The sample consisted of 342 students (171 female students and 171 male students) who were selected through multi-stage random sampling method. To collect data, the University of California, Los Angeles Loneliness Scale , the Academic Adjustment Scale, and the Parental Phubbing Scale were used. The evaluation of the proposed model was carried out using AMOS software. Results: The results showed that parental phubbing has a direct, positive, and significant relationship with loneliness and a direct, negative, and significant relationship with academic adjustment. The results also showed that loneliness has a direct, negative, and significant relationship with academic adjustment. Finally, the results of the bootstrap test showed that loneliness plays a mediating role in the relationship between parental phubbing and children's academic adjustment. Conclusion: The model demonstrated a strong fit. The mediating role of loneliness in the relationship between parental phubbing and academic adjustment is a good model for explaining mental injuries of phubbing and applying it in the field of preventing academic adjustment problems in students

Objective: This study aimed to examine the predictive roles of parental anxiety and parental criticism on child internalizing symptoms in a South African sample. Methods: The research employed a correlational descriptive design with a sample of 470 parents of children aged 6 to 12 years, selected based on the Morgan and Krejcie sample size table. Participants were recruited from various regions of South Africa. Standardized instruments were used, including the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) for child internalizing symptoms, the Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI) for parental anxiety, and the Perceived Criticism Measure (PCM) for parental criticism. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 27, applying Pearson correlation coefficients to examine the relationships between variables and multiple linear regression to determine the predictive power of parental anxiety and criticism on child internalizing symptoms. Findings: Pearson correlation analysis showed significant positive relationships between child internalizing symptoms and both parental anxiety (r = .61, p < .01) and parental criticism (r = .53, p < .01). Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that both parental anxiety (β = .49, t = 12.67, p < .001) and parental criticism (β = .33, t = 8.82, p < .001) significantly predicted child internalizing symptoms. The overall model was statistically significant (F(2, 467) = 183.19, p < .001), with an R² of .44, indicating that 44% of the variance in child internalizing symptoms was explained by the two predictors. Conclusion: The findings demonstrate that higher levels of parental anxiety and criticism are associated with increased internalizing symptoms in children. These results highlight the importance of addressing both emotional and behavioral aspects of parenting in preventive and therapeutic interventions aimed at supporting child mental health.

Objective : The purpose of the present research was to investigate the impact of innovative organizational climate on the job performance of private sector employees, taking into account the mediating role of job motivation and self-efficacy. Methods : A descriptive-correlation approach was employed in the current investigation, utilizing structural equation modeling. The population of the study consisted of 384 employees from the private sector, aged between 21 and 49 years (with a mean age of 35.11±8.17 years), who willingly participated in the present study. The research was conducted in Tehran, Iran, in the year 2023. The participants were selected through a convenience sampling method, adhering to the guidelines outlined by Krejci and Morgan. Standard questionnaires were used for data collection. Pearson correlation test and structural equation modeling were used for data analysis. Results : Results revealed that innovative organizational climate significantly affected job performance (T=6.284). Moreover, innovative organizational climate significantly affected job motivation (T=11.594). Furthermore, innovative organizational climate significantly affected self-efficacy (T=9.509). In addition, job motivation had significantly mediated the relationship between innovative organizational climate and job performance (P<0.001). Finally, self-efficacy had significantly mediated the relationship between innovative organizational climate and job performance (P<0.001). Conclusion: Based on the findings of this research, it is recommended that market holders focus on promoting and enhancing the factors and components that contribute to the innovative organizational climate of private-sector employees. Additionally, greater emphasis should be placed on job motivation and self-efficacy of the private-sector employees.
