“…46 Therefore, they may partly shape the students' perceptions, which influence their academic performance (i.e., a deep or surface approach to learning) 47 and educational outcomes. Since the educational outcomes are believed to be both individual and environmental, 48 the Student-SERM critically addresses the role of immediate educational context in manifesting adequate resilience in student populations.…”

Background: There is no validated instrument for Persian-speaking students to apply the social ecological resilience theory (SERT), which emphasizes the ecological resources for developing resilience. The study aimed at developing the student social-ecological resilience measure(Student-SERM) in Iran’s context. Methods: Three separate samples of undergraduates participated in this mixed-methods research from the University of Tehran, Iran. Phase-1 qualitatively explored the resilience features in the university setting, to devise the university-specific subscale (USS). Phase-2piloted the construct validity and reliability of the Student-SERM in 242 undergraduates, who also completed Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale (DASS-21). Phase-3, as a cross-validation study, investigated 487 undergraduates, who completed the refined Student-SERM, HospitalAnxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), and three indices screening academic performance, loneliness, and suicide acceptability. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), Pearson’s correlation, and Cronbach’s alpha were performed. Results: Phase-1 yielded nine items for USS. In phase-2, EFA indicated the construct validity of the main 20-item measure (RMSEA=0.06 and SRMR=0.04) and the nine-item USS (RMSEA=0.07and SRMR =0.04), and the reliability and convergent/divergent validity were confirmed. In phase-3, EFA (RMSEA=0.07 and SRMR=0.04) and CFA (RMSEA=0.07, CFI=0.89, TLI=0.87,and SRMR=0.07) in two separate subsamples and CFA (RMSEA=0.06, CFI=0.92, TLI=0.90,and SRMR=0.06) in the total sample indicated the construct validity of the refined StudentSERM, including family, peer, culture, growth, and USS subscales. The reliability and convergent/divergent validity were also reconfirmed. Conclusion: The Student-SERM incorporates ecological resources, accounting for the students’resilience. Since the resilience process involves a return to healthy functioning after adversity, further research can examine the application of Student-SERM in high-risk student populations.

“…And what spiritual well-being means is a matter of serious debate, and it may be difficult or impossible to reach a common definition. Although it has not yet been significantly incorporated into practical dimensions, the spiritual component has now found its place in the scientific recording of health, whether in the individual or the collective dimension ( 18 ). Engaging in the right and receiving the benefits of heavenly ethics and worship is necessary for maintaining spiritual health.…”

“…In Iran, despite the need and importance of examining different aspects of EBP, few studies have been conducted among physiotherapists in this field. These studies have often attempted to introduce the benefits of EBP and promote its use in physiotherapy (Mousavi et al., 2011; Pashmdarfard & Shafarood, 2018; Seyed Habibi et al., 2016). To support and increase the use of EBP in physiotherapy in Iran, it is crucial to understand the barriers and facilitators influencing EBP engagement among Iranian physiotherapists.…”

BackgroundTo facilitate evidence‐based practice (EBP) in physiotherapy in Iran and guide future improvements, it is crucial to identify what barriers and facilitators exist in the current system from the physiotherapist's perspective. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to explore the barriers and facilitators of EBP in physiotherapy in Iran.MethodsThis qualitative study was conducted using a phenomenological approach from January to July 2023 in Iran. The sampling process started with a purposive approach, and then an attempt was made to identify and interview more potential samples with the snowball approach. Thematic analysis was used to analyse the collected qualitative data.Results44 individuals, including 37 physiotherapists and seven faculty members, participated in this study. Several barriers and facilitators to evidence‐based physiotherapy practice in Iran were found and then put into three themes: (1) individual factors, (2) practice environment factors, and (3) extra‐organisational factors. The most common barriers were time/workload pressures, financial incentives, lack of motivation, weakness in English, managers' pressures, inadequate awareness among patients, infrastructure limitations, poor economic situation, Internet restrictions, inappropriateness of the educational curriculum, difficult access to scientific research, and lack of insurance coverage for up‐to‐date therapies.ConclusionsAlthough most of the participants had a very positive view of physiotherapy based on scientific evidence, various obstacles have prevented this approach from being well implemented in Iran. Therefore, it is necessary to move towards minimising the existing barriers at the individual, practice environment, and extra‐organisational levels by adopting effective multilateral policies.
