Abstract
Introduction: Spiritual intelligence as the foundation of one's beliefs has a crucial role in different aspects of human life particularly in provision and promotion of mental health. On the other hand, the role of happiness in mental health, physical health, and efficient social partnership is considered to be very important. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between spiritual intelligence, happiness and academic achievement in students of Qom University of Medical Sciences.
Methods: In this descriptive, analytical research conducted in 2011-2012, a census sample of 353 medical, nursing, and midwifery students were studied. Data gathering tools included the Oxford Happiness Questionnaire and spiritual intelligence Questionnaire of Badie. Data were analyzed via ANOVA, Pearson correlation, and t test.
Results: The mean and standard deviation for total score of spiritual intelligence and happiness were 152.93±18.83 (out of 210) and 48.33±16.22 (out of 87), respectively. A direct, significant, and moderate relationship existed between the spiritual intelligence and happiness scores(r=0.599, p=0.0001).There was a weak but significant relationship between the spiritual intelligence and academic achievement(r=0.12, p=0.041). Mean score for happiness was not correlated with academic achievement (p>0.05). The mean score of spiritual intelligence in males (149.74±17.11) was significantly different(t=3.98, p=0.048) from that of females (154.32±19.45). Also statistically significant differences were observed in the mean scores of happiness among students with different fields of study(F=3.94, p=0.020) and also with different economic status were significantly different (F=3.98, p=0.008). Mean scores of spiritual intelligence of students with different fields of study (F=3.65, p=0.027) and with different economic status (F=4.15, p=0.007) were also significantly different.
Conclusion: Higher spiritual intelligence was associated with more happiness and academic achievement of students. It seems that promotion of spiritual intelligence creates a cheerful mood and promotes academic achievement of students of medical sciences and thus improves the quality of medical care to patients.

Therefore, this study was performed to investigate the association of personal characteristics and educational experiences of the students with their academic achievements.
Methods: This descriptive correlational study was conducted on the students of Shahid Sadoughi Medical University within 2011-2012 academic years. Students were selected through random stratified sampling based on gender and discipline (n=300). The research tool was the college students’ experiences questionnaire (CSEQ). Data was analyzed using descriptive statistics and multiple regression.
Results: All three dimensions of college students’ experiences including perceptions of quality of environment, quality of effort, and social integration are significant anticipators of their academic achievements respectively and predict 0.43 of achievements variance. In addition, students’ experiences inpredicting their academic achievement differ considering gender, major, and educational level it means that experience dimensions in male and female students predicted 0.38 and 0.31 of the achievement, respectively. Moreover, all dimensions of the experiences of health students predicted 0.31, allied health medicine students 0.38, nursing and midwifery students 0.43, medical students 0.22, and dental students 0.18 of achievement variance. The predictability rate for bachelors, masters, and graduate students were 0.45, 0.33, and 0.42, respectively.
Conclusion: Purposeful planning for promoting students' participation in on-campus activities as well as interaction with administratory personnel can affect students’ efforts and ground for fulfillment of their and non-intellectual achievements in an acceptable level.

Abstract
Introduction: Happiness can boost faculty members’ positive emotions on the one hand and enhance productivity by decreasing negative emotions on the other. Previous research on workplace happiness has ignored the role of employment status. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to compare workplace happiness among tenured and contract faculty members.
Methods: This study was a descriptive cross-sectional research. Statistical population included all faculty members of University of Sistan and Baluchistan. A sample of 183 (121 tenured and 62 contract faculty members) were selected by stratified random sampling method. The following standard questionnaires were used to measure the variables: organizational justice, job security, job meaningfulness, job interest, participation, interaction and organizational learning. Content validity and Cronbach’s alpha coefficient were utilized to determine the questionnaires’ validity and reliability. Data were analyzed using independent t-test.
Results: The mean scores of tenured and contract faculty members respectively were calculated for the areas of job interest (3.99±0.56 and 4.08±0.57, P=0.322), job meaningfulness (3.96±0.59 and 4.01±0.69, P=0.759), organizational learning (3.96±0.41 and 4.01±0.33, P=0.395), participation (4.06±0.55 and 4.09±0.52, P=690), interaction (4.17±0.55 and 4.25±0.48, P=0.380), job security (4.89±0.39 and 4.05±0.56, P=0.001) and organizational justice (4.21±0.42 and 3.91±0.67, P=0.001). A significant difference was found between the two groups in organizational justice and job security of tenured faculty members.
Conclusion: Although findings indicated that workplace happiness of faculty members was not much affected by the employment status, university administrators could facilitate the contract-to-tenure process and thus improve job stability and workplace happiness of contract faculty members.
