The purpose of this study was to develop a model for identifying the consequences of psychological distress during the spread of coronavirus pandemic by mediating role of family emotional climate, which was a practical research in terms of purpose and descriptive-correlative in nature. The statistical population of the study included all Iranians in the country during the spread of coronavirus pandemic. The sample was 590 people who were selected from men and women from different provinces. Sampling was performed based on multistage cluster method which twelve provinces were selected as the target and then the questionnaires were completed by online survey. Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (2002), Steger meaning of life (2010) and researcher-constructed feeling loneliness and Emotional Family Climate Scale were used to collect the data. Structural equation model was used for statistical analysis. Findings showed that psychological distress had a positive causal relationship with the feeling of loneliness and a negative causal relationship with the meaning of life and also, the emotional climate of the family had a mediating role in the relationship between psychological distress and loneliness and meaning of life. As a result, psychologists, sociologists, and other social media professionals should consider the high capacity of the family's emotional climate as a key factor in Reducing of the effects of psychological distress resulting from the spread of crises such as the coronavirus pandemic on individual and collective living condition.

The present study aimed to analyze the content of elementary school social studies textbooks based on Webster's wisdom theory in order to assess students' readiness to face with the world affected by the coronavirus pandemic. This research was fundamental in terms of purpose and descriptive in terms of nature. The statistical population included third to sixth grade social studies textbooks. In order to collect data, the Census method was used. The unit of analysis was the pages (text, chapter titles, image, questions or activities). The research tool included a checklist based on the five dimensions of Webster's theory (2007). Findings showed that in designing social studies books, only the dimension of openness to experience has been considered enough; While the dimension of humor and reviewing memories and reflection has been neglected in almost all grades, and emotional regulation has not received much attention in other grades except in the third grade. Attention to the dimension of challenging experiences was appropriate at other levels except the fourth grade. Shannon entropy represented a high information load for all dimensions and special attention to the components of memory review and reflection, emotional regulation and challenging experiences. The results of the research showed that filling the gap between the elementary grades in terms of wisdom dimensions and designing the content of books in order to cultivate wise, innovative and empathetic students to live in the current turbulent world is a great mission for educational institutions that it has been neglected somewhat.
