 The aim of this study was to investigate and compare the effectiveness of mental deactivation therapy and cognitive-behavioral therapy based on Hofmann's model on state-trait anxiety and fatigability in adolescents with generalized anxiety disorder.

 This experimental study used a pre-test-post-test design with a control group and a follow-up test. The population of this study included all adolescents with generalized anxiety disorder in Bushehr County, from which 45 individuals were selected using purposive sampling based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. The participants were randomly assigned to three groups: 15 to the first experimental group, 15 to the second experimental group, and 15 to the control group. Participants responded to the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (Spielberger et al., 1983) and the Fatigue Severity Scale (Farmer & Sandberg, 1986). Group 1 received a 12-weekly-session, 120-minute therapy program based on the Jelodari Guide (2021), and Group 2 received a 12-weekly-session, 120-minute therapy program based on the Hofmann and Otto Guide (2008), while the control group did not receive any intervention. Data were analyzed using univariate and multivariate covariance analysis and Bonferroni post hoc test with SPSS-26.

 The results of the multivariate covariance analysis indicated a significant difference between the post-tests of the groups (p < .001). Bonferroni post hoc test results showed that both experimental groups led to a reduction in anxiety (p < .001) and fatigability (p < .001) compared to the control group. Moreover, mental deactivation therapy had a better performance in reducing anxiety (p < .001) and fatigability (p < .001) compared to cognitive-behavioral therapy based on Hofmann's model.

 Based on the results, it can be concluded that mental deactivation therapy, due to its individualized nature, is more effective in treating individuals with various needs and issues. In contrast, cognitive-behavioral therapy based on Hofmann's model, due to its primary focus on social anxiety disorder, has lower efficacy in treating non-anxiety disorders.

 One of the most painful experiences in the collapse of romantic relationships is the experience of love trauma. The objective of the present study was to determine the effectiveness of emotion-focused therapy (EFT) on love trauma syndrome and symptoms of depression and anxiety in young women with experiences of emotional breakup.

Methods and Materials: 

This study employed an applied quasi-experimental design with a pre-test, post-test, and follow-up with a control group. The statistical population of this study included all women aged 20-35 who visited counseling centers in Amol in 2022. The sample consisted of 40 women from the statistical population of Amol, who were selected through convenience sampling and randomly assigned to two groups: the emotion-focused therapy group (n=20) and the control group (n=20). Data were collected using the Ross Love Trauma Inventory (1999), Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), and Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) (1996). The sessions of emotion-focused therapy by Greenberg et al. (2008) were conducted in 12 weekly 90-minute sessions. Data were analyzed using repeated measures and SPSS-26 software.

 The results indicated that emotion-focused therapy was effective on anxiety (F = 18.410), depression (F = 41.531), and love trauma syndrome (F = 74.597) in young women with experiences of emotional breakup. Therefore, it can be concluded that emotion-focused therapy was effective on anxiety (F = 18.410), depression (F = 41.531), and love trauma syndrome (F = 74.597) in young women with experiences of emotional breakup.

 It can be concluded that emotion-focused therapy was effective on love trauma syndrome and symptoms of depression and anxiety in young women with experiences of emotional breakup.

Mothers of children with Attention Deficit / Hyperactivity Disorder face significant challenges. The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of acceptance and commitment-based parenting education and parenting based on positive psychology on emotion regulation, resilience and mother-child relationship in the statistical population of mothers with children with disabilities. Attention / hyperactivity 8 to 12 years old boy in Tehran in 1399-1400 was a quasi-experimental research method with a pre-test-post-test design with 2 expriences group and one control group. By available sampling, 45 volunteer mothers were included in the study and randomly assigned to two experimental groups and one control group. The research instruments were the Graz and Roemer Emotion Difficulty Scale, the Conroy-Davidson Resilience Scale, and the Pianta Mother-Child Relationship Scale, which included parenting and commitment training based on Kevin and Morrell and Seligman's Positive Psychology training. To analyze the data, descriptive indices (mean and standard deviation) and inferential statistics (multivariate analysis of covariance) were used in SPSS software version 22. The results showed that there was a significant difference between the parenting group based on acceptance and commitment, the parenting group based on positive psychology and the control group in the mean score of emotion regulation and mother-child relationship. But there was no significant difference in the mean resilience score, so counselors are advised to use the findings of the present study in line with clinical interventions to help better emotion regulation increase resilience and improve the quality of mother-child relationship in mothers of children with attention deficit / hyperactivity disorder.

Undoubtedly, the birth and presence of an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) child in any family is an unpleasant and challenging event and prevents the performing of the parent's normal functions. Mothers of children with special needs, especially ASD, experience more psychological problems. There is much evidence that mothers of these children experience higher levels of general anxiety than mothers of other exceptional children. Frustration and deprivation due to the child's abnormality cause isolation, disinterest in relating to the environment, low self-esteem, a feeling of worthlessness, and low parenting self-efficacy. Eventually, this situation causes depression and endangers the mother's mental health. The present research aimed to compare the effectiveness of acceptance and commitment therapy with coping strategies training on increasing self-esteem and parenting self-efficacy in mothers of ASD children.

The quasi-experimental study has a pretest-posttest and follow-up design with a control group. The study population consisted of all mothers whose children were treated and educated in ASD education centers in Booshehr City, Iran. In total, 30 willing and volunteered to participate in the study were selected and randomly assigned to three groups (acceptance and commitment therapy, coping strategies training, and control group, each group was 10 people). The experimental groups participated in 8 sessions once a week for eight continuous weeks, while the control group did not receive treatment. The inclusion criteria included not having severe physical illness and maternal psychosis, having a child with ASD being treated and studying in one of the educational centers for children with autism, and having at least primary education for mothers. The exclusion criteria were the symptoms of mental disorder during the training session, and receiving psychiatric treatment and, having a history of receiving cognitive-behavioral training, absence from two or more sessions in the intervention program. The instruments for gathering required data consisted of Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (Rosenberg, 1965) and Parenting Self-Efficacy Scale (Dumka et al., 1996). The obtained data were analyzed at the level of descriptive statistics (frequency, percentage, mean and standard deviation) and inferential statistics (repeated measure analysis of variance and Bonferroni's post hoc test) at the significant level of 0.05 in SPSS version 16 software.

Results showed that acceptance and commitment therapy and coping strategies training significantly improved mothers' self-esteem and parenting self-efficacy in the experimental groups compared to the control group (p<0.001). The effect of both interventions was significant from the pretest to the posttest (p<0.001) and from the pretest to follow-up (p<0.001). But it was not significant from the posttest to the follow-up (p>0.05). Also, no significant difference was observed between the average scores of the experimental groups in the variables of self-esteem (p=0.668) and parenting self-efficacy (p=0.056).

According to the study findings, both interventions are effective in increasing self-esteem and parenting self-efficacy, and there is no significant difference between the effectiveness of these two interventions. Therefore, therapists can use these two therapeutic and educational approaches, especially acceptance and commitment therapy, a new wave of cognitive-behavioral treatments.

This study was carried out in order to investigate the online "marital enrichment package with a cultural approach" on the sexual behaviors of women suffering from sexual distress.
In this randomized clinical trial, 79 women were recruited. Forty were assigned to the experimental group and attended the four-week program (6 hours), and 39 were assigned to the control group. Sexual behaviours, sexual scripts, and sexual distress were determined by a questionnaire that was completed before and after, eight and 12 weeks post intervention. The control group received the intervention based on the sexual health model post experiment. Independent samples t-test were used for statistical analysis.
According to the findings of the present study, significant differences were observed between the groups for the scores of sexual behavior in the follow-ups (P=.001; F=26.582).
The utilization of the four-session culture-oriented marital enrichment packa significantly improved sexual behaviors, altered sexual scripts, and decreased sexual distress. Our findings provide the basis for a larger Randomized-Controlled Trial (RCT) with a longer follow-up period among couples.

The present study was conducted with the aim of determining the effectiveness of positive mindfulness on internalized shame, experiential avoidance, and emotion dysregulation in women who experienced violence. The current research was applied in terms of its purpose and in terms of its nature, it was a semi-experimental design with a pre-test and post-test with a control group and a three-month follow-up phase. The statistical population of the present study consists of all women victims of domestic violence who were members of safe houses in Shiraz in 2018-2019, 30 people were selected in a targeted way and were randomly assigned to the experimental and control groups. Measurement tools included Garnevsky et al.'s Emotion Dysregulation Questionnaire (CERQ, 2001), Bavand et al.'s Experiential Avoidance (AAQ-II, 2011), and Cook's Internalized Shame Questionnaire (ISS, 1987). The experimental group received Hoffman et al.'s (2014) positive mindfulness intervention in 8 sessions of 90 minutes twice a week, and the control group did not receive any intervention. To analyze the data, analysis of variance with repeated measurements was done with SPSS 26 software. The results of the one-way analysis of variance showed that there is a significant difference between the post-test score and follow-up of internalized shame, experiential avoidance, and emotion dysregulation in the control and experimental groups (p<0.01). 44% of internalized shame, 75% of experiential avoidance, and 36% of emotional dysregulation are explained by positive mindfulness therapy. As a result, it seems that positive mindfulness treatment is effective on internalized shame, experiential avoidance, and emotion dysregulation.

Sexual distress is a destructive factor in marital relationships, so if the right interventions are used, this sexual problem can be prevented. The purpose of this study is the effectiveness of the indigenous package of enriching marital relations on sexual distress of working women in Shiraz, 2020-2021. The research method was clinical trial with pre-test and post-test design and 8 and 12 week follow-up with two experimental and control groups. The statistical population of the study consisted of all married women working in several government agencies in Shiraz in 2020. 120 women with sexual dysfunction were selected by purposive sampling method and were divided into experimental and control groups, which resulted in 79 final samples. 40 people were in the experimental group and 39 people were in the control group. All of these women applied to participate in training sessions to enrich couple relationships (4 sessions of 2 hours) which were purposefully selected and randomly divided into two groups. In this study, a sexual distress questionnaire (Dragatis, et al., 2008) was used to collect information. Analysis of statistical data was performed by SPSS22 software at both descriptive and inferential levels. The results showed that there is a significant difference between the scores of sexual distress in the research stages and the native package of enrichment of marital relationships has improved the quality of sexual intercourse and reduced sexual distress in the experimental group compared to the control group (p> 0. 001). Therefore, the indigenous package of enriching marital relations has played a significant role in promoting women's sexual relations.

In recent years, children's behavioral, emotional, psychological, and emotional problems have become the focus of psychologists and psychiatrists. One of the children's behavioral problems is Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Having a child with ADHD in the family can lead to feelings of inability to play a parental role and further challenges in raising a child. Mothers of children with this disorder experience significant pressures and challenges. One of the problems for mothers of children with behavioral disorders is poor management and regulation of their emotions. There are different approaches to parenting. One of these approaches is parenting education based on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). Another intervention is parenting education based on positive psychology. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of parenting education based on ACT and parenting education based on positive psychology on the emotion regulation in mothers of children with ADHD.

This research is a quasi–experimental study with a pretest–posttest design with a control group. The statistical population consists of all mothers of male children with ADHD aged 8 to 12 years living in Tehran City, Iran, in 2021. Using a purposive and convenience sampling method, among 100 mothers with ADHD children (diagnosed by a psychiatrist), after a pretest, 45 eligible mothers who met the inclusion criteria were recruited. As the final sample, the mothers were randomly assigned to two experimental and one control group(s) (each group with 15 people). The inclusion criteria were as follows: having sufficient literacy to learn and complete the questionnaire, achieving a score lower than the cut–off point of 36 on the Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS) (Gratz and Roemer, 2004) in the pretest by mothers, providing a written commitment to attend the course regularly and to be committed to doing homework, presenting a diagnosis of ADHD by a psychiatrist and clinical psychologist for children, lacking severe psychological disorders (anxiety, depression, obsessive–compulsive disorder) in the mothers. The exclusion criteria included a lack of commitment to do homework and dissatisfaction with continued cooperation. Acceptance and commitment–based parenting education and positive psychology–based parenting education were provided for the experimental groups in ten 90–min sessions for three months, using the ACT–based parenting education training package (Coyne & Murrell, 2009) and a parenting education therapy package based on positive psychology (Rashid & Seligman, 2013), respectively. The control group waited for training during this period and did not receive any intervention. The measurement tool of the present study was DERS. To analyze the collected data, in addition to using descriptive indicators (mean and standard deviation), inferential statistics methods (analysis of variance, univariate analysis of covariance, and Bonferroni post hoc test) were used. Data analyses were performed in SPSS software version 22, and the significance level of all tests was considered 0.05.

The results showed that after removing the pretest effect, there was a significant difference between the experimental groups and the control group in the mean score of emotion regulation in the posttest (p<0.001). In other words, parenting education based on acceptance and commitment and parenting education based on positive psychology reduced the difficulty in regulating emotion in the experimental groups compared to the control group. Eta squared value was 0.502. Also, parenting intervention based on acceptance and commitment (p<0.001) and parenting intervention based on positive psychology (p=0.023) for the experimental groups reduced the difficulty of emotional regulation in mothers compared to the control group. Finally, there was a significant difference between the effectiveness of parenting education based on ACT and parenting education based on positive psychology on reducing emotion regulation in mothers of children with ADHD (p<0.001).

Based on the present study's findings, both parenting education interventions based on ACT and parenting education based on positive psychology are effective in emotion regulation in mothers of children with ADHD. However, the effectiveness of parenting based on positive psychology on mothers' emotion regulation is more than parenting education based on ACT.

Numerous studies have examined the relationship between sexual variety, activated cognitive schemas and sensation seeking among men. However, research on the development of a structural model for predicting sexual variety based on sensation seeking by mediating cognitive schemas activated among married men has been neglected.

The present study aimed to investigate the structural equation model for predicting sexual variety based on sensation seeking by mediating cognitive schemas activated among married men in Shiraz.

The research method was descriptive-correlational based on structural equation modeling. The statistical population consisted of all married men referring to counseling centers in Shiraz. Of this number, 240 men were selected by using availability sampling method. For collecting data, sexual variety Questionnaire (Glass & Wright, 1992), Sensation seeking scale (Arnett, 1994), and Cognitive Schema Activation in Sexual Context Questionnaire (Nobre & Pinto-Gouveia, 2009) were used.The fitness of the proposed model was estimated through structural equation modeling.

The results of the research showed that the research model has a good fit. The results of Pearson 's correlation coefficient test showed that there is a significant relationship between sensation seeking variables, cognitive activated schemas and sexual variety (P<0. 001). The results of path analysis showed that sensation seeking has a direct and indirect effect on cognitive schemas activated in sexual context and sexual variety (P <0.001). The results of regression analysis showed that activated schemas in sexual context have significant effects on sexual variety in married men (P<0.001).

Therefore, it can be concluded that sensation seeking has a direct and indirect significant effect on sexual variety in married men. Activated schemas had a mediating role between sensation seeking components and sexual variety.

Autism is a complex developmental disorder that challenges not only the individual but also the family and the community.

The present study aimed to compare the effectiveness of interventions based on mindfulness training of mothers and Lego therapy on signs of autism in children.

This quasi-experimental research had a multiple-group pretest-posttest design and a control and follow-up group. In addition, it was an applied study in terms of objective. The statistical population included 85 children with autism, who referred to two autism rehabilitation centers in Tehran, Iran in 2019. In total, 30 subjects were selected by convenience sampling and were randomly divided into three groups of (1 and 2) test and control (10 subjects per group). The participants in the test groups attended 12 45-minute sessions while the control group received no treatment. Data were collected using the Gilliam Autism Rating Scale (1994), and data analysis was performed in SPSS version 22.

In this study, the results of repeated measures ANOVA showed the effectiveness of mindfulness training of mothers and Lego therapy on the decrease of signs of autism and its dimensions (social interactions, social interactions, communication, and stereotyped behaviors) (P< 0/001). However, Lego therapy had a greater impact, compared to mindfulness training.

According to the results of the present study, Lego therapy decreased the signs of autism in children more than the interventions based on mindfulness training of mothers.
