A set of questions, after confirming their face validity, was given to the participants and all collected data was analyzed through heuristic method (based on data from 400 precipitants) and then by confirmatory method (using data from 579 participants) to determine the construct validity of the developing test. Results: A scale containing 34 items was developed and the items were distributed among the three factors of "emotion / cognition exchange" (20 items), "engagement intensity" (7 items) and "culture exchange" (7 items). Taken together, these three factors accounted for 46.73% of the total variance of the questionnaire. Based on the results of the reliability analysis (internal consistency), the coefficients obtained for the factors were between 0.81 and 0.90, among which emotion / cognition exchange had the highest coefficient of internal consistency index, followed by cultural exchange and engagement intensity, respectively.; The overall internal consistency of the questionnaire was 0.92.

Abstract

Aim: The present study was conducted with the aim of investigating the relationship between the experience of cultural globalization (based on the three indicators of using foreign music, using foreign media, and individualism) and consuming western clothing. Methods: The type of research was descriptive and the method was survey. The statistical population included all female undergraduate students of Shiraz University in the academic year of 2022-23, of which 384 of them who responded came from colleges of economics, management, social sciences, literature and humanities who were selected trhough random multi-stage cluster sampling. Findings: Based on data analysis, it can be said that there is a positive and significant relationship between the use of foreign music and the consumption of western media (B=0.459), and between the use of foreign media and the consumption of western media. There is a positive and significant relationship with medium intensity (B=0.563); and finally, there was a positive and significant relationship between individualism and consumption of western clothing with relatively high intensity (B=0.667). In addition, the results showed that the three variables of using foreign music, using foreign media, and individualism (as indicators of cultural globalization) were able to explain and predict about 52% of the changes related to the dependent variable (consumption of western clothing). Conclusion: Based on the findings, it is suggested that the cultural policy makers, while taking the necessary measures to promote the media literacy of the youth, should make some kind of contextual adjustment in the direction of using satellite networks, in relation to the representation of the interests and tastes of the young generation in the programs of the domestic networks. To prevent the influence of culturally heterogeneous elements, the necessary investment should be applied in the direction of good music productions according to the taste of young people. Finally, in the field of Islamic-Iranian clothes, a variety of new and diverse designs according to the taste of women should be considered.

Abstract

Aim: The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between personality traits and the tendency to addiction with the mediation of emotion regulation in Yazd University students. Methods: The study employed descriptive-correlational methodology. The population included all students of Yazd University in the first half of the 1401–1402 academic year, from whom 210 people were selected through available sampling method. Data was collected using the Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (2001), Five Personality Factors NEO short form (1992), and Addiction Tendency (1992). The data were analyzed through path analysis using SPSS software (version 25) and PLS version 3. Results: The proposed model had a good fit. The findings indicated that the direct effect of neurotic personality traits on addiction tendency (ρ=0.00, β=0.30) was positive and significant, while the direct effects of extraverted personality traits (ρ=0.00, β=-0.32) and conscientiousness (ρ=0.00, β=-0.24) on addiction tendency were negative and significant. However, no significant direct effect was found between the agreeableness personality trait (ρ=0.09, β=-0.11) and addiction tendency. Additionally, the direct effect of neuroticism on maladaptive strategies (ρ=0.00, β=0.47) and the direct effects of extraversion (ρ=0.00, β=0.43) and conscientiousness (ρ=0.01, β=0.18) on adaptive strategies were significant. While there was a significant relationship between maladaptive strategies and addiction tendency (ρ=0.00, β=0.17), the direct effect of adaptive strategies on addiction tendency (ρ=0.06, β=0.12) was not significant. Furthermore, the indirect path of the neurotic personality trait on addiction tendency through the mediating role of maladaptive strategies (ρ = 0.00, β = 0.09) was significant. Conclusion: The results showed that personality trait as an independent variable and emotion regulation as a mediating variable is an important factor in predicting the tendency to addiction, which can be useful in planning preventive interventions and training workshops in the field of managing and controlling emotion regulation strategies.
