The present study was conducted with the aim of investigating the spiritual status and organizational commitment of elementary school teachers. It was an applied survey study and its statistical population included all elementary school teachers of district 1 in Kerman City which included a total of 1050 subjects. Simple random sampling was used in this study and the sample size was 285 subjects. Two questionnaires were used for data collection: a researcher-made spirituality questionnaire that included 13 questions with a Likert Scale of 5 which was an extraction of Kenda nd Foreman's (2010) questionnaire and Allen and Mayer's organizational commitment questionnaire (1993) which included 18 questions with a Likert Scale of 5. The content validity and reliability of the questionnaires were estimated by Cronbach's alpha. Descriptive and inferential statistics including one sample t –test and regression test were used for data analysis. Results of the one sample t-test showed that the teachers had a high level of spirituality and organizational commitment. In addition, results of the regression test showed that spirituality has managed to predict 0.91 of the teachers' organizational commitment.

The present study was conducted with the aim of investigating the relationship between students' mental health and happiness. It was a descriptive study following a correlational approach with a statistical population of all educational sciences students (bachelors and masters) in the University of Sistan and Baluchestan which included 400 subjects. The sampling was done in a simple random method and a number of 196 subjects were studied as samples based on Morgan's table. Research tools included Goldberg's questionnaire (1979) including 28 questions on General Health Questions (GHQ) and Argyle and Crossland's happiness questionnaire (1989) including 29 questions. The content validity of the questionnaires was confirmed and their reliability was estimated using Cronbach's Alpha. Descriptive and inferential analyses including Pearson's correlation coefficient and independent t-test were used for data analysis. Results of Pearson's correlation coefficient showed that there is a positive significant relationship between mental health and happiness of students. Results of the independent t-test showed that there is no significant difference between mental health and happiness of the students in terms of their marital status.
