Abstract
The study of how individuals with disabilities spend their leisure time in order to identify their limitations and weaknesses based on their viewpoints is an essential element in planning. The results will be effective in improving the services and investment with the goal of improving, at least, part of their leisure time quality. The purpose of this study is to identify how individuals with physical disabilities in Kashan spend their leisure time. The research tool for this applied study is a questionnaire with 66 items which was developed after the study of the background and theoretical foundations of the research with an approach to empowering individuals with physical disabilities in managing their leisure time. The tool was validated with the help of experts in the field and its reliability was caluculated using the Cronbach's alpha coefficient to be 0.776. The results of the questionnaire were analyzed using AMOS and SPSS softwares. Findings indicate that home-activities with a factor load of 0.93 had a greater role in the leisure time of individuals with physical disabilities. Socializing with friends with a factor load of 0.77 ranked in second followed by computer activities, mass media, and the family. The results of the study on the problems of individuals with physical disabilities in spending their
leisure time indicate that low safety of sports equipment and lack of proper equipment for exercise with a factor load of 0.90 are the main barriers to performing leisure time activities. Other important obstacles are a lack of leisure facilities such as benches and sports facilities, lack of standard footpaths, adequate floor coverings and parking spaces with regression weights of 0.88, 0.82, 0.81, 0.77 and 0.57, respectively. In order to improve the leisure-time patterns of individuals with physical disabilities community-based rehabilitation programs are required. In this regard, planning for and empowerment of individuals with physical disabilities can be more effective with six rehabilitational activities including family education, community education, individuals with physical disabilities referring to higher levels of support and guidance, providing rehabilitation aids, employment, and social support for individuals with physical disabilities.

The continuity and development of any science depends on the research that is done in that field. Stagnation in research in a scientific field paves the way for stagnation in that field of knowledge, and dynamism in research guarantees the development of that science and the growth of its scholars. Therefore, in order to be aware of the position of a scientific discipline in the current situation, what process it has gone through so far and what is its perspective, it needs to do some Internal analysis. To achieve this, the sum of research conducted in a scientific field should be recognized as the subject or domain for an independent critical research. The present research is an attempt has been made to critically examine the academic research conducted in the field of social work in Iran during five decades of the research life of this field. However, in conducting such research, not only these considerations have been satisfied, but also a redoubled effort has been made to investigate the thematic relationship of the laws passed with this discipline in the framework of an institutional relationship. Quantitative content analysis method has been used to examine both areas. In applying this method, 645 academic researches and 169 legal documents have been used as valid sources of data collection. Among the findings of this study, we can mention the relationship between the institution of science and the institution of legislation, which has experienced convergences and divergences during the period under review.

Attitudes of University Students to Substance Abuse and its Predictors Leila Nobakht[1] Received: 25/1/2015 Accepted: 15/3/2016 Abstract The present study aims at assessing attitudes of university students towards addictive substances and identifying the factors affecting it as well as factors influencing the formation of the attitude of the students. Addiction to drugs is a social issue resulting from deviant behavior and there are different reasons for students’ tendencies towards addiction. To do this, the researcher considered a framework combining theories of Crach, Cruchfield, Ballachey, Newcomb, Hess, Jennings, Niemi, Zajone, Bandura and Suterland; six hypotheses were determined to identify factors forming attitudes of students. Accordingly, an appropriate questionnaire was designed and 375 students were tested through multiple- stage cluster sampling. The research method is survey. All data were analyzed through the Pearson test as well the Spearman test, Phi and v-Cramer tests. The results have shown that the attitude of families toward narcotic drugs, how friends treat drugs, the consumption of substances by family members and drug abuse by friends, affected the students attitudes toward addictive substances and contribute to the formation of the students’ attitudes to drugs; whereas, families social- economic status and intimacy with family did not influence the attitude of students.

This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of education. Entrepreneurial information-motivational empowerment was done on self-efficacy in job decision making and life expectancy of female-headed households. Twenty-two female heads of households referred to the Imam Khomeini Relief Committee of Ardakan were selected by convenience sampling in spring 1398 and were randomly divided into two experimental and control groups, each containing 11 individuals. The experimental group received 8 sessions of training based on the psychological empowerment components protocol based on the theory of Thomas Waltheus (1990), while the control group received no intervention. To evaluate the subjects, Taylor and Betz (1983) job decision self-efficacy questionnaire and Snyder's life expectancy questionnaire (1991) were used. The results of covariance analysis showed that motivational information empowerment training in entrepreneurship domain, increased self-efficacy in job decision making and life expectancy of female head of household had a significant impact. Career decision making and life expectancy were effective for female-headed households; this intervention is recommended for female-headed households in support institutions and on a larger scale to prevent further harm to these women.

Using a quantitative method of surveying, the present study aimed at investigating the relationship between poverty and emotional relationships among couples living in District 16 of Tehran, Iran. Applying cluster sampling, 400 individuals were selected as the statistical sample. The data were collected using a researcher-made questionnaire and were analyzed using descriptive and analytical statistics given by SPSS (Ver. 20). The results showed a significant negative relationship between economic poverty and emotional relationships between couples (p = 0.001), indicating that the more the economic poverty in the family, the less the emotional relationships among the members would be. In addition, a significant statistical correlation existed among economic poverty, negative behaviors, violence in the family, trust, and supportive behaviors (p = 0.001). In general, economic poverty increases violence, which by itself affects the emotional relationships between couples. Therefore, it appears that if adopted policies focus on improving the household economic status and income, the size of the family and community harms will decrease significantly.

One of the most important responsibilities of social workers is economic support of the needy patients based on professional evaluation and diagnosis. The present research is a qualitative contractual content analysis. Data was collected from 18 social workers of the headquarters, universities of medical sciences, and medical centers, following focused group discussion (FGD) method with multiple-question design. The findings obtained from analyzing the codes, subcategories, and themes/category were grouped as poor intra-organizational cooperation and collaboration and irresponsible inter-organizational challenges influential on the discount topic. The inter-organizational dimension involved topics such as the weakness of hospital HIS system, interference of others in recording the discounts, poor instructions, occupation of social work posts by graduates of other majors, poor documentation, lack of personnel and facilities, lack balance between the authorities and responsibilities, and the unfamiliarity of health workers with the nature of social work. The inter-organizational dimension included the poor performance of other supporting organizations, growing social paths and undocumented immigrants, insurance role, lack of attention to some of the vulnerable groups, imposed expenses, growing visits to public hospitals, and the culture of using public resources. According to the findings of the study, different factors influence the amount and type of the economic support that the social workers provide for the needy patients and this fact imposes a great expense into the healthcare system of the country. On the other hand, it has deprofessionalized the social work profession and created a negative and low level perception towards it in the society.

Corona Pandemic, quarantine, and restrictions imposed on businesses, especially in the field of informal employment and services, women in their businesses have faced many problems in terms of providing and developing services. The purpose is to identify the problems of the group of women heads of households who are responsible for home baking and economic affairs and managing family financial resources. Therefore, in this study, from a qualitative approach and thematic analysis method, semi-in-depth interviews were conducted with 15 women and then coded by Max Q.D.A software. A total of 2 main themes, 4 subthemes, 12 concepts, and 110 phrases were extracted. The two main categories of causes of female unemployment in the Covid period were the nature of the job and the effect of the disease on some occupations. Consequences of unemployment in three categories of psychological consequences (decreased self-esteem and depression, reduced female resilience). The decline in women's resilience is due to job losses or unemployment or a reduction in their income. Job consequences, such as lack of skill development and role mixing and the mother-teacher phenomenon, have left women trapped in poverty and precarious jobs, and put double pressure on women. The findings indicate a lack of support based on gender sensitivity. Depression is not only due to economic problems but also due to the increase in gender roles and the return of previous roles of women that were previously left to institutions such as schools or kindergartens;

Eventually, a coherent account of these experiences was reached in the form of a chronological order. In this study, the statistical population includes 20 divorced women in Tehran in 1399 and purposive sampling method was used and data collection and analysis were performed simultaneously. According to the analysis and also the main and sub-categories extracted, the story of divorced women can be narrated in the form of 7 situations. The divorced women studied were not acquainted with their husbands in a suitable position and "context of couples' acquaintance" and the grounds for their "decision to marry" were not provided in the form of motivations and criteria for marriage. In the meantime, with the "issuance of the marriage contract" among the subjects, whispers of differences gradually began, and also with the holding of a wedding and the formation of life, the couple enters a new phase of "living behind closed doors." In the continuation of life, "spouse infidelity", "spouse addiction" and "domestic violence" are the main backgrounds of "sparks of divorce" in their minds. "Court trauma" is a campaign to end their family life formally and legally. When a woman decides to divorce; An agreed-upon divorce is based on an "agreement as a dowry" so that he can separate from his wife.

Domestic violence against men has several dysfunctional consequences that affect not only the individual and the family, but also the middle and upper levels of society. The aim of this study was to study domestic violence against men under sociological explanation. This was a descriptive-explanatory study in which data were collected from married women between 18 and 65 years old in Mashhad in 1398 with a sample size of 394 people by multi-stage cluster sampling. Spss and Amos softwares were used to analyze the data.The results showed that the overall average of domestic violence against men in a range of 0 to 100 was 18.16, and in general, 75.4% of men were slightly abused, 21.3% were moderately abused and 3.3% were severely abused. Also, among the dimensions of violence, the highest amount belonged to the psychological dimension (Mean: 21/09). Among the independent variables, experience of violence, observation of violence, feeling of injustice and life satisfaction had a significant effect (P <0.01) on domestic violence against men, which the most impact belonged to the experience of violence (Beta = 0.50, P <0.01). Social variables played an important role in facilitating violent behavior against men, which necessitates educational needs through school, media and family

Research shows that two-thirds of the prisoners are likely to commit crimes again within the first three years of their release. It is critical to study the factors associated with committing crime again for public planning. In this essay, we try to identify not only the risk factors affecting this phenomenon by studying published articles about recidivism, but also, given the contradictory results of the research, we will examine the effect size of a summary of the research. This paper is a meta-analysis. In this study, Hege’s g index was selected as the indicator of the effect size of studies. The CMA2 software was used to calculate the effect sizes. The random summary effect size was 0.396, and the effect sizes of the variables from the highest to the lowest were that of personality disorder, low age of the offender, offenders’ attitudes, poor education, dysfunctional family, family history of crime, problematic personality traits, crime background, criminal associates, victim type, psychological disorders, alcohol and drug abuse, unemployment and status of residence, respectively. In conclusion, the summary effect size of risk factors, according to Cohen's classification, shows small and medium effects. The most studied risk factors were at the individual level, indicating that the individual's perception of committing crime in the research literature was overcome.

Abstract This present study is descriptive and aims to examine the attitudes of women with disabilities who reside in the city of Tehran toward childbearing. The studied population consists of all married women with disabilities in Tehran (1500 people) based on the results of 2017 National Population and Housing Census in Iran. The sampling method was a systematic sampling method and the size of the sample was determined through Cochran formula through which 300 people were selected as the sample of the study. The required data for the Study were collected through questionnaires. Results of the factor analysis have proved that there is no correlation between the measures of any factor with the measures of other factors and any factor has its own impact on the disabled women’s attitude toward child bearing. According to calculations of the Chi-square test, there is a significant correlation between the attitudes of women with disabilities toward childbearing and economic, social and cultural factors. There is also a significant relationship between the attitudes of women with disabilities toward child bearing and the number of their brothers and sisters as well as their family size. There was a significant relationship between the attitudes of women with disabilities toward child bearing and social welfare, circumferential justice and benefiting from social security. Regression results have shown that demographic factors with over 57%, social factors with more than 69%, economic factors with more than 58% and cultural factors with more than 63% have been effective in determining the attitudes of women with disabilities towards childbearing.
