This article studies the mobile phone effects on interpersonal communications of youths (through surveying students of Tehran universities). In fact, this study specifies whether the depth and width of interpersonal communications have been changed through mobile phone or not? This research has considered mobile phone communications of 387 students of state universities in Tehran through measurement methods. After gathering and examining data, it was found that personal characteristics of mobile phone owners have no effects on depths and width of interpersonal communications. But their recognition of modern technologies (IT literacy) has little effect on their usage of mobile phone. The results also showed that the mobile phone use has had effects (although little) on depths and width of interpersonal relationships. Of course, this effect was observed in students who had mobile-mediated communications in addition to face to face communications.

Metaphysical view takes language as the performance of human thought in action and considers it as a communicative mean and expression medium. When the Language as a general communicative medium mixes with human taste and merges with sentiment and imagination to manifest beauty in the statement then it is called art and changes to be a specific medium rather that a public one. Sometimes Art is represented by words configuration and play with letters and words, sometimes in the frame of line and paint, sometimes in form of a stone, an iron or a wood statue, and sometimes in the vibration of melody and music, then art named as poem, theater, sculpture and music. So poem should be considered as a typical pattern of art and art as a typical pattern of language, and it should establish some sort of particular generality –specialty relation between them. But Heidegger however by questioning the essence of being, truth, human, language, art and poem destructs the west metaphysical history and clears up the abyss of overturned bases and relations, from merging emergence of primordial neglect of the truth of existence and the lack of ontology in the setting of existence to sensual subjectivity and dispersion of the human nature in reality and totality of abiding of beings to Being in the form of nihilism, and find a new relation between existence, truth, human, language, art and poem.

The present article deals with the question of whether advertising and media technology have a power beyond reason or power of human will and if they have some sort of manner of their own? Does technology serve human purposes or advertising media will determine the goals and objectives? In summary and technical words are the technology, media and advertising autonomous? To answer this question, the content and the views of Heidegger's arguments (M. Heidegger) and Borgmann (A. Borgmann) and Ellul (J. Ellul), the general philosophy on technology has been introduced, in particular in the field of technology and advertising industry review will be cleared and finally ends with a critical assessment of the perspective of technological autonomy enthusiasts.

This research examined literary information flow among 1081 nodes and 32340 ties selected from 49212 nodes and 163169 ties sampled using cluster comprehensive snowball sampling method among Persian users of Facebook online social network and utilized measurements and formulas of social network analysis (SNA). In addition, it specified major influential users and ties, and visualized the network relations graph and measured degree centrality, betweenness centrality, closeness centrality, eigenvector centrality, density, diameter, average geodesic distance, page rank, and clustering coefficient. This study was carried out in winter of 2012 and was composed in April of 2012. It was the first study on this field in Iran that made use of social network analysis method in Facebook online social network; also it was the first research using social network analysis method to analyze more than 150000 ties in Iran.

Mass Communication Media are information highways which roles in culture and identity have recently interested social science scholars. In this regard, different conceptual frameworks have been of offered. Snowball communication is an idea that emphasizes the formation of identities through Mass media. On the contrary, some scholars emphasize information analysis. Still others emphasize a more balanced approach and point out the contradictory and dual role of mass media in both forming and eroding national identity. The purpose of the present article is to explore the level and content of TV programs, satellite channels, and internet sites on national identity of the citizens and their variables. The population of the study was the residents of Kashan, a traditional city that has recently begun movement toward modernity. The study is a survey work in which data have been collected through questionnaires and interviews. A 10-item Likert- scale questionnaire provided data on the main variable. The cronbach’s alpha reliability was 0.84. Results indicated significant positive correlation between TV use and tendencies toward national identity (Tb= 0.252). However, the relationship was negative for the use of satellite channels and the internet (TC= -0.271 and -0.199). Chi-square analysis also confirmed the data. Regression analysis (β= 0.268 and -0.276) also reflects the positive effects of TV and the negative effects of Satellites on national identity.

The use of Audio Software as effective element on the quality of programming has doubled and creating an audio scene, they can have dramatic effects. Nuendo and Adobe Audition software to create audio sceneries of virtual for listeners and viewers And create psychological effects of arbitrary in contacts and to provide powerful environment for recording, editing and mixing digital sound.
The main goal of this research is the study of usage effects of audio software on form and content of radio programs by program-makers. The survey method is making use of questionnaire application among some 135 person from the IRIB producers northwest: IRIB center in Ardabil, West Azarbaijan and Zanjan. The results of hypothesis testing using Pearson correlation test shows there is a significant relationship between variables indicative of the effects of using audio software with the territories of radio ambient in relation to form and content of radio programs by program-makers.
