Introduction: The present study aimed to standardize and evaluate the validity of the Barnett and Fanshav’s High School Stress Scale (HSSS) (1997). Method:This research was descriptive-survey in terms of method and was considered in the field of developmental research in terms of purpose. To perform the research, high school stress scale was carried out on 445 high school students, and Goldberg and Hiller’s general health questionnaire (1979) was administered to 150 male and female high school students who were selected through multistage cluster sampling. In order to determine the factorial validity, factor analysis was used and to verify the internal consistency,Cronbach Alpha Coefficient was used. Results: The results showed that the test consists of nine subscales. Subscales consists of stress education including teaching methods, teacher-student relations, the workload of school, vulnerabilityfeelings, personal organizing, school environment, achieving independence, anxiety about the future, and communication with parents.To check the convergent validity, General Health Questionnaire was used. The results showed the convergent validity fortwo tests. Conclusion: Overall, the results showed that the High School Stress Scale is a valid and reliable tool for measuring high school students' stress.

Introduction: The purpose of this study Standardization and Normalization Memory Scale Retrospective memory - prospective Crawford et al (2003) For students Fits Retrospective memory - prospective In Iranian culture. Method: The tool used to determine the size and amount Retrospective memory - prospective Made by Crawford et al (2003). Content validity of the by Psychology faculty approval and On a random sample of 382 students Implementation Payam Noor University of Urmia. Questions with appropriate statistical methods to analyze Amount validity and reliability, cut off point and Norm scores were determined. Results: The test results Kolmogorov - Smirnov The assumption of normality of the data by Retrospective memory – prospective Equal to 0/703 the Level (P 0/05) Not significant, Therefore we can say that The data obtained from the questionnaires distributed, Its distribution among the normal population. In addition, Test the Kaiser - Meyer – Avlkyn equivalent 0/77 and Bartlett test 1632/835 That level error, Smaller than for 0/01 Was significant.the amount Cronbach's alpha for whole questionnaire equivalent 0/83. Conclusion: Test results show the high reliability.
