Abstract
This study aims to investigate the mechanisms contributing to the effect of business ads on the social identity of Ianian women. 60 ads of the Iranian TV were analysed by quantitative and qualitative methods. Frequency analysis revealed that the image of a desired and successful woman is mainly affected by these factors; 1) Employers' benefit; 2) discourse type: 3) targer population; and 4) the semantic strategies used in ads. The analysis of verbal ad visual content in detail showed how characterization of women in this medium is inducing a certain metanarrative regarding success. These findings are further analyzed in a critical framework and their relationships with the machnisms of the formation of social beliefs in face of material development of the society are discussed. In conclusion, the signs of a slow and deep change in the attitude of both provate and state sectors involved in advertisement are clarified.

Abstract
The formation of social interactions requires a spatial container. Public spaces can lead to the formation of a sense of identity, belonging and a sense of place by increasing the amount of communication, convergence of different individuals and groups, providing a platform for various activities and events, and thus inducing collective memory among the residents. All of which are components of social capital. , In the present study, an attempt has been made to explain the relationship between social capital, public spaces and neighborhood identity, the various dimensions of this issue. Therefore, the study of the impact of physical and social dimensions of space on the components of social capital such as trust and interaction and incidental participation in social networks can explain the role of public spaces in social capital and neighborhood identity. This research has been done through correlation and regression tests in spss-minitab software.

Abstract
This study seeks to investigate the relationship and impact of place identity and dependence, which are two important dimensions of spatial belonging, to the city among the urban youth of Amol. This research uses the theoretical framework proposed by Lefebvre and operationalizes the concept of the right to the city presented by this thinker, to benefit from the concept of the right to reveal the city and examines its relationship and impact with belonging to a place that has two dimensions of identity and spatial dependence. The study population is 420 young girls and boys living in Amol who were selected using multi-stage sampling technique. Research data analyzed using SPSS and Amos, show that the results of path analysis indicate that among the studied environmental variables, three variables of Place attachment, Place identity, and Place dependence are included in the model. In examining the direct effects of the above variables, it was found that belonging to a place with a beta coefficient of 0. 255 has the greatest effect and place identity with 0. 097 has the least indirect effect.

Abstract
Recently, the association between religious beliefs and English language teaching (ELT) has gained great attention. Yet, when reviewing the literature in ELT, it becomes clear that studies have been mainly concentrated on other religions such as Christianity. However, the relationship between Islam and English language education has remained considerably under-investigated. This qualitative multiple case study is an endeavour to address this scholarly gap. For this objective, ten male and female Iranian Muslim English language teachers, including six male and four female, in Iran were selected through purposeful sampling. This study aims to investigate the link between religion and construction of professional identity. By using in-depth interviews as the main source of data, and following the principles of an inductive content analysis approach, the study indicates that Islam influences the participants’ professional identity in three ways, namely: (1) increasing the teachers' wellbeing, (2) affecting their relationship with learners, and (3) providing them with a sense of duty to preserve the students’ religious values. Finally, theoretical and pedagogical implications as well as future research direction are presented.
