        This study aims to examine the relationship between moral conscientiousness and goals of progress with source-mediated control. This research was a descriptive-correlational study. The statistical population of the study consisted of undergraduate students of Shiraz University, from which 440 students (221 girls) and (219 boys) were selected through multistage cluster random sampling. They responded to task-oriented ethics questionnaires, locus of control, and goals of progress. To respond to the research hypotheses, path analysis was used in structural equation modeling. The results showed that although conscientious and trustworthy with all three achievement goals performance approach, mastery approach & mastery avoidance Have a positive and significant relationship; But with performance approach the relationship is greater. The results also showed that locus of control can mediate the relationship between moral conscientiousness and achievement goal. The results of this study contribute to the development of theoretical knowledge about the antecedent role of moral conscientiousness and locus of control in relation Achievement goal. Also, in practical terms, the implication of the research results is that by moral character, conscientious, and trustworthy (locus of control) can help develop appropriate development goals.

        Abstract: The purpose of the present study was to determine the relationship between spiritual in-telligence and locus of control with students' men-tal health. To do so, 400 male and female under-graduate students at Shahid Chamran University of Ahwaz were selected as subjects through ran-dom multistage sampling. The subjects completed the King's Spiritual Intelligence Self-Report In-ventory (SISRI-24) the Nowicki-Strickland's Lo-cus of Control Questionnaire (LOCQ), and Ge-neral Health Questionnaire (GHQ-28). By apply-ing simple correlation, the findings showed that there was a significant and positive correlation between spiritual intelligence and its three dimen-sions (personal meaning production, transcend-dental consciousness, and consciousness state ex-pansion) with mental health. However, there was no significant correlation between critical thinking (one dimension of spiritual intelligence), and men-tal health. In addition, there existed asignificant relation between locus of control and mental hea-lth. The results from regression analysis indicated that locus of control and spiritual intelligence, res-pecttively, play a role in predicating the mental health. Besides, the regression analysis of spiritual intelligence dimensions (critical thinking, personal meaning production, transcendental consciousness, and consciousness state expansion) indicated that only the personal meaning production can pre-dicate 0.05 of mental health.

        4 - Locus of Control in Quran’s View, with an Emphasis on Concept of Determinism & Free Will

        Man’s health in all areas is deeply affected by his lifestyle. On the other hand, lifestyle and actions and conducts originate from man’s mental and psychological processes and his style of thinking. The locus of control of man’s character is among personality traits that significantly affect the way one thinks and behaves. Research findings show that many of men’s problems and troubles are rooted in a belief in external control on individuals. But what affects does internal control have on individuals? Does external control not have any positive effects? A study of Quranic concepts, especially those related to the issue of determinism and free will point to the fact that Quranic discourse rules out absolute free will on the one hand and considers limited effects from external determinism on individuals, on the other. Hence, Quran’s view of the locus of control is something in the middle of internal and external control. Manuscript profile
