Psychology of theology has a great deal of scope and subcategories, and the study of the relationship between these sections as well as the dimensions and structure of each of its subclasses can help to understand the structure of this knowledge. for this reason, this study has been done to explore the Intellectual Structure of the Positive Psychology studies. The present research is applied in a practical way. It uses scientometric techniques and, in particular, the both occurrences of vocabulary method and text mining, to explore the internal structure and subject relations of positive psychological studies. The community of this research is the articles of the positive psychology field indexed at the Scopus base. The total number of articles in the period from 2000 to 2012 was 1086 articles. By extracting related terms from the title, abstract and keywords of the articles and applying the methods of text and rooting, a coincidence matrix with 43 × 43 dimensions was created. Results: The results of this study showed that among the 7 optimized clusters, the cluster 2 with 10 words and the cluster 4 with 9 words, are recognized as the main clusters. The cluster 5 has the largest number of main subjects among the selected concepts, and clusters 2 and 1 have the least distances, which indicates that the connection between the main and minor issues in these clusters is greater. In contrast to cluster 7, it has the greatest distance from most clusters, indicating at least the similarity of cluster threads with other cluster themes. Conclusion: Based on this, the most correlation was found between the internal structure of positive psychology between the concepts of adult, construct, individu, positive psychology and strength in cluster 1 with the concepts effects, chang, develop, educ, emot, model, optim, posit, role and support in cluster 2 is established. In this regard, it is anticipated that cluster 7 with its concepts will become an independent study area in the future.

AbstractPurpose: The purpose of this article is to scientometrics study of scientific production of the journal of tax research as the only scientific journal of the field of tax knowledge in Iran. Metholdology: This research is an applied research and is based on content analysis methodology. The data were collected by using checklist tool and statistical analysis has been done via Excel software and the range of research time is 10 years from 2008 to early 2018. Findings: Findings have been showed that during the years studied, 626 authors contributed to the production of 273 articles, of which 484 were men and 142 women. considering the level of education and scientific ranking of the authors, MA degree with 42% and assistant professors with 28% are in the top of the ranking list of authors. In the meantime, 15% of articles have only one author and 85% are the results of grouping work. Among the universities and scientific centers, Allameh Tabataba'i University with 27 articles ranked first and Islamic Azad University of Central Tehran Branch, along with the Office of Tax Studies and Research, with 16 papers ranked second. Conclusion: It seems that the main reason for the researchers' of the journal attention to issues such as evaluating staff and tax departments as a research topic, ease of access to their information for researchers, but in contrast to these matters, the subject of the assessment is the taxpayer, whose number of researches in the journal shows that the number of these studies is not even among the top 20 researchers. This is while research in this area has an important role in identifying the barriers and problems of the tax system and will help in the future plans of the state in the field of tax revenues. On the other hand, the topic of tax evasion in the third category of research priorities of researchers, suggests a serious problem in this area.

Abstract Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the average willingness to pay for the services of Kermanshah Medical Libraries and its effective factors.Methodology: The present study is based on a survey method and conditional valuation, which is part of the preferred method of reporting, to determine the willingness to pay. The research population of all users of Kermanshah University of Medical Sciences libraries was 7470 people. The sample was 553 people based on Michel and Carson's formula. A simple random sampling method was used to select the sample. The data gathering tool was a two-dimensional questionnaire. cronbach's alpha (0.86) was used to determine the reliability. Data analysis was done using statistical methods such as descriptive statistics and nonparametric logistic regression test using simultaneous input of variables.Findings: The average annual willingness of users to use the services of medical science libraries was 20600 toman. Also, the results showed that the education variable had a positive and significant effect on the willingness to pay the users. From the perspective of users, among the various resources and services of medical libraries, books and publications, online databases, offline databases and theses of first rank are other services, which will be worth the cost.Conclusion: The results of this study showed that users are willing to pay annual or monthly amounts to maintain the current services of medical university libraries. It can be said that if paying money would improve the services and change the current situation of the library, It is clear that according to the view of users, higher economic value and, consequently, the willingness to pay for a variety of resources and services of academic libraries will increase significantly.

Background and aim: The purpose of this research is to investigate the information-seeking behaviourof Shiraz Islamic Azad University postgraduate students, and how to prioritize and use of various information sources. The research also investigate the role of demographic characteristics in students information-seeking process, as well as use of various informationsources.Material and methods: The research method is surveying. The population of the study consisted of 298 postgraduate students that randomly selected through classified ratio sampling method. A researcher made questionnaire was developed and after measuring its validity and reliability, distributed among the sample in person. Data were analyzed by using descriptive and inferential statistics and SPSS software.Findings: The results show that the students use from the electronic, printed and humanities resources respectively for fulfilling information needs and updating information. Students believe that information and communication technologies have reduced their visits to libraries. Students seek help from librarians primarily to locate books and other documents and to search for information at the first stage. Students encounter a range of problems and barriers in their information-seeking process that the most important are the Lack of resources, Expensive resources and the scattered information. Conclusion: Despite of the effects of new technologies on students’ presence in academic libraries, all types of information resources are still consulted by them.Various purposes for of information acquisition determines the type of information source, and students identify and use the information resources according to their information needs.

Cloud computing is a computational model that provides software and web-based computing resources when requested by users. Cloud computing gives consumers' access to software in addition to cost savings. Accessibility, management, and exploitation of resources are the other virtues of virtualization. In this article, cloud computing standards are discussed, and at the end of the map, we provide a way to deploy cloud computing in libraries and information centers. Cloud-based templates are the foundations of technology that can a great new era in libraries and information centers.
