Meta-analysis can provide comprehensive results and make future researchers needless to spend time and cost on duplicate research. The purpose of this study was to provide computer-assisted education on learners's academic performance. The statistical population consisted of studies that were available from 1390 to 1395 at home and from 2010 to 2016 abroad as a full-text article in internal and external databases. The checklist of the research designs was used to collect the information. In order to analyze the data, sensitivity analysis, Funnel analysis, fixed and random models and heterogeneity analysis using CMA software were used. Data analysis of the research showed that computer-assisted education has a positive effect on academic performance. Also, the effects of computer-assisted education on academic performance varies according to sampling methods, but there is no difference in gender. Regarding the results of meta-analysis, it can be said that using computer-assisted education is more effective in academic performance.

One of the key features of a successful test is to have an appropriate reliability. This study determined the validity and reliability of the Persian language placement test of Sa’adi Foundation. This test consists of three main sections: language knowledge, writing and speaking. The language knowledge section consists of three sub-sections: grammar, vocabulary, and reading. The statistical population of the test consisted of 140 language learners from 41 countries. To calculate the reliability and the construct validity, Cronbach's alpha coefficient and Pearson correlation coefficient was used respectively. The reliability index in the language knowledge sub-sections’, grammar was 0.71, vocabulary was 0.817, reading was 0.861 and for the whole language knowledge was 0.916. The reliability of the two sections of speaking and writing was 0.749 and the total test was 0.895. Considering that the acceptable reliability index in Cronbach's Alpha method was at least 0.7, it was found that the test in various sections and sub-sections, and the test overall, had an acceptable reliability. The correlation coefficients obtained from the test sections, between language knowledge and speaking were 0.175, language knowledge and writing 0.186, and writing and speaking 0.602. Perhaps at first glance, test validity is not acceptable, but by comparing the correlation between the sub-sections of the language knowledge and the skills of speaking and writing, it can be concluded that the students have acted poorly in the productive skills, and this shows that in their educational background, they are concerned only with language knowledge or declarative knowledge, not the procedural knowledge.one of the application of this article is that Persian curriculum should focused on improving procedural knowledge of the Persian learner.

Previous studies have shown that Movement Imagery ability is effective in motor performance and learning in sports and rehabilitation. Appropriate inventory for assessment of this ability in adults (e.g. MIQ-3) development and validated in Iran. However, there is currently no standard tool for using children in Iran. To address this gap, we sought to examine the psychometric properties of the Persian version of imagery ability questionnaire for children (MIQ-C). The statistical population included children from 7 to 12 years old (135 boys, 109 girls) who were selected by random cluster sampling. Results replicated that most items had good discrimination and threshold parameters and high item information values and IRT replicated that all questions have an appropriate coefficient of detection (a) and threshold (b). So the Persian version of the current questionnaire is recommended to measure the Movement Imagery ability to children from 7 to 12 years of age in Persian.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Metacognitive Awareness Inventory and its relationship to Achievement Goals between female’s secondary school students in Shahriyar city. From statistical population consisted of 10500 high school female students of Shahriyar Secondary Schools in 97-98 academic year with a sample size of 561 by multistage random sampling and responded to the Schraw and Dennison (1994) meta-cognitive awareness questionnaire and the Elliot and McGregor (2004) achievement goals questionnaire. To evaluate the reliability of the metacognitive awareness questionnaire, using a T-test method on 53 subjects over two three-week intervals, the coefficient α = 0.79 for the whole questionnaire and α = 0.82 for the scales and subscales. It was achieved to indicate the characteristic of test stability over time. In addition, the results of the validity of the questionnaire with Cronbach's alpha method on a sample of 561 individuals, for the whole questionnaire was α = 0.82 and for the subscales and scales α = 0.84 indicating internal consistency of the question. Eight factors were obtained to investigate the construct validity using exploratory factor analysis, consequently confirmatory factor analysis, it was found that the instrument had an acceptable fit. In order to investigate convergent validity, the factors obtained from exploratory factor analysis were analyzed. The results show that the factors of the questionnaire have good convergent validity, that is, they measure what they need to measure. Concurrent validity confirmed the correlation between the metacognitive awareness questionnaire and achievement goals.

This study investigated the validity, reliability and factor structure of Delaware school climate- student (DSCS-S) (Bear, Gaskins, Blank, Chen, 2016) in Iranian girl high school students. 500 girl high school students from grade 11 (250 experimental sciences, 250 human sciences) were selected through multi-stage sampling method and Persian version of DSCS-S was administrated among three towns of Zanjan province. The results based on item analysis showed that Cronbach's alpha coefficient for the scale was 0.92. Then the internal consistency of the scale was high. Confirmatory factor analysis also confirmed this structure and the existence of 7 factors: teacher-student relations, student-student relations, student engagement, clarity of expectations, fairness of rules, school safety and bullying. The factor structure of the scale was invariant by major. Goodness of fit indicates of confirmatory factor analysis confirmed the 7 extracted factors. Based on the results, Persian version of DSCS-S can be used as a precise instrument among girl high school students in Iran.
