This study aimed at investigating the relationship between burnout and job satisfaction, personality variables, and mental health among nurses. Methods: This applied research was a correlational study. A sample of 240 Lahijan county nurses were selected through random systematic sampling. For data collection, job burnout questionnaire Maslach and Jackson, Neo-Five Factor Personality Inventory, General Health Questionnaire, and Job Satisfaction Questionnaire were used. Convergent validity of these tools was 0.73, 0.68, 0.75, and 0.74, respectively, and Cronbach's alpha coefficient of reliability was 0.89, 0.93, 0.85, and 0.93, respectively. Finally, data was analyzed with Pearson correlation and multivariate regression using SPSS version 21. Results: The results showed that job satisfaction predictors of job burnout (β = 0.24 and P > 0.002) also revealed significant correlation between mental health and job burnout (P > 0.05) and between job satisfaction and burnout relationship (P > 0.05). However, there was no relationship between variables of job burnout and personality traits (P > 0.19). Conclusions: Therefore, it could be concluded that mental health may increase burnout, yet different aspects of personality and character is unable to predict burnout. Also, according to the findings, prevention and decrease of job burnout by providing training and skills related to promotion of mental health and job satisfaction is recommended.

This study explored the effects of a disclosure program for expressive writing about emotions on the 3 executive functions of working memory, planning/organizing, and cognitive flexibility in an Iranian context. In so doing, 40 third to fifth graders with learning disabilities were recruited and assigned to either experimental or control groups through certain recognition tests and interviews. The effects of the treatment on executive functions were stable after 2 months. It was concluded that such disclosure programs can reduce executive functioning impairments of students with learning disabilities.

The treatment system consists of electrocoagulation, microfiltration and reverse osmosis (RO) sections. Treatment performance is evaluated by measuring electrical conductivity (EC), chemical oxygen demand (COD), biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5), total suspended solids (TSS), total dispersed solids (TDS) oil and grease (O&G), total hardness (TH) and turbidity. Results showed that the maximum removal efficiency of BOD5, COD, TSS, O&G, EC, TH and turbidity were obtained as 94.49%, 92.17%, 88.18%, 80.8%, 89.84%, 86.66% and 71.72%, respectively. DO was increased significantly due to the reduction of BOD, COD and microorganisms. Results showed that the combination of iron and aluminium electrodes can be very effective in removing pollutants. In addition, the use of microfiltration before RO led to a significant reduction in salinity and TDS. Response Su...
