The control group included 650 servicemen who joined the service within this period. The analysis of psychological features of servicemen was carried out with the help of the following methods: “Determination of Type Accentuation of Character Traits and Temper” Questionnaire, “Self-Esteem Structures of Temper Questionnaire”, “Multilevel Personality ‘Adaptability’ Questionnaire”, “Progressive Matrix”, “16 PF Questionnaire”, and “Self-Esteem Structures of Temper Questionnaire”. Cluster analysis was used to differentiate servicemen who committed incidents under the influence of alcohol.

This technique is particularly employed in patients with ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS), which leads to heightened blood estrogen levels. The purpose of this study was to compare the percentage of pregnancy and abortion between patients who used the frozen embryo method due to OHSS and others who practiced the same method for other reasons. Materials and Methods: This retrospective, cohort study was conducted on a total of 338 patients who visited in vitro fertilization (IVF) section of Kowsar Hospital of Urmia-Iran to employ the frozen embryo method (May 2013 to December 2015). The patients were classified into two groups, i.e. the OHSS group (N=150) and the non-OHSS group (N=188). Data were obtained and examined by evaluating the files in a questionnaire. Results: The two groups did not differ significantly with regard to their mean age (p = 0.57). There was also no statistically significant difference between the OHSS and non-OHSS groups regarding the quality of frozen embryo transferred (P = 0.17).

Based on the research model analysis, organizational commitment did not have impact on efficiency, and job anchors had a positive and significant impact on efficiency. Eventually, the modified model showed that organizational commitment variable moderates the connection between job anchors and efficiency. Conclusion: In light of the findings of this research, managers of military organizations should develop programs to create and improve organizational commitment in personnel.
