THE EFFECT OF PREBIOTICS AND LACTOBACILLUS ACIDOPHILUS ON THE FATTY ACID PROFILE OF DOOGH

Abstract

The goal of this study was to investigate the effects of optimism skills on the emotional exhaustion of upper high school students in the Iranian city of Ashkezar. This study fell under quasi-experimental research and employed an experimental and a control group. The study also had an applied goal, and data was collected descriptively using the library method and a questionnaire. The statistical population of the study consisted of 472 students (380 girls and 92 boys) studying at the upper high schools of Ashkezar City in the academic year 2023 to 2024. The sampling method was the random cluster method, and two schools were selected, each involving 50 people (a total of 100 people). The Emotional Exhaustion Questionnaire was also administered to them. Out of the 100 people, 40 people who had scored less in class behavior management were selected as the sample. The experimental group received optimism skills training but the control group did not. Findings showed that there was no significant difference in the two groups of students’ emotional exhaustion in the pre-test stage; however, the post-test intervention noted that administering optimism skills to the experimental group had effectively reduced their emotional exhaustion.
