Current studies show that specific pathological features separating chronic depression from non-chronicremain largely unknown. In his psychopathological theory, Lynch has introduced two constructs namely overcontrolling and social connectedness that can not only explain the depression but also its chronicity and treatment resistance. The purpose of this study was to investigate the strength of these two constructs in distinguishing chronic depression from non-chronic depression. The study sample consisted of 20 patients with chronic depression, 16 patients with non-chronic depression and 17 healthy subjects (n=53) who were selected using purposeful sampling. The data were analyzed using MANOVA. The findings showed that overcontrolling and social connectedness were able to distinguish patients with chronic depression, patients with non-chronic depression and healthy subjects from each other; however, analyzing each variable individually, reveal that ambivalence over expression of emotions did not differentiate between patients with chronic depression and patients with non-chronic depression. Also the personal need for structure could not differentiate between the groups. The implications of the findings are discussed.

The purpose of the present study was to examine the moderating role of positive and negative affectivity on the relationship between attachment styles and dyadic adjustment. Participants consisted of 378 married individuals (194 women, 184 men). All of whom completed the Adult Attachment Inventory (AAI), The Glombok-Rust Inventory of Marital State Questionnaire (GRIMS), and The Positive and Negative Emotionality Scale (PNES). The results showed a significant positive correlation between secure attachment style and positive affectivity with dyadic adjustment. Insecure attachment styles (avoidant and ambivalence) and negative affectivity showed a significant negative correlation with dyadic adjustment. Analysis of data also revealed that the relationship between secure and insecure ambivalence attachment styles and dyadic adjustment were moderated by negative affectivity. Increasing levels of negative affectivity was accompanied stronger relationship between secure and insecure ambivalence attachment styles and dyadic adjustment. It can be concluded that attachment styles as well as positive and negative affectivity can predict dyadic adjustment.

Hearing impaired children having undergone cochlear implant, despite of progress in communication skills, do not have satisfactory relationships with their peers. The main purpose of this study was to design a family-oriented personal-social skills training program and to examine its effect of it’s on behavior problems of cochlear implanted individuals. In this experimental study, 16 families that have cochlear implanted adolescent were selected based on entrance criteria, including mothers and their two-year old child with cochlear implanted ranging from 12 to 19 years old, from 328 families. Consequently, they were randomly assigned to control and experimental groups. The behavioral part of Social Skills Rating Scale for measurement of behavioral problems was used. The designed program includes the onset of communication, finding friend, etiquette, use of body language in interaction, affection and emotion management, conflict and it’s solving, self-assertiveness, cooperation, responsibility, citizen and decision making. Multivariate covariance was employed in order to analyze the data. The results showed that family-oriented social skills training program reduces internalizing (F=10/33, P<0/01), externalizing (F=30/83, P<0/01), hyperactivity (F=19/41, P<0/01) and general behavior problems (F=46/14, P<0/01). The study revealed that family-oriented social skills training program is effective in decreasing the behavioral problems of cochlear implanted adolescent which can be employed to decrease behavior problems and improve social adjustment, as these skills can be an integral part of rehabilitation program.

Infidelity is one of the most harmful interpersonal issues in family, which in many cases can lead to the development of emotional and behavioral symptoms in the person who has been betrayed. In this regard, the present study was undertaken with the aim to identifying the effectiveness of acceptance and commitment group counseling on feeling of loneliness in women suffering from the trauma of infidelity. The research method was experimental and the design was quasi-experimental using pretest-posttest with control group. The statistical population included women victims of infidelity referring to counseling centers and family courts in Tehran, Iran, in 2017. Thirty couples were selected via purposeful and available sampling method based on the study’s criteria and randomly assigned to experimental (n=15) and control groups (n=15) (finally were investigated through dual assessment of pretest-posttest). All participants were asked to complete UCLA Loneliness Scale (Russell, Peplau & Cutrona, 1980). In addition, the participants in the experimental group attended 8 sessions of 90-minute acceptance and commitment group counseling and the control group received no training. The results of univariate analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) indicated that acceptance and commitment group counseling significantly decreased the post-test average scores of feeling of loneliness in experimental group. Thus, it could be concluded that acceptance and commitment group counseling is an effective method in reducing feeling of loneliness in women suffering from the trauma of infidelity and can be used by counselors and therapists in the field of family therapy.

Procrastination is a common problem among university and school students. To address this problem., the current research was carried out with the aim of studying the combined research effect size in the field of procrastination and academic performance. A systematic review and meta-analysis method were used in this research. Along the same lines, 30 projects through PRISMA method from web the Data (Pupmed, Springer, ProQuest, Scopus, Elsevier, Science direct, Google Scholar, Magiran), between the year 1984-2018, 1380-1396 were conducted in accordance with research objectives to perform current study. After evaluating the criteria for entrances and lay away requirements research, the correlation effects of the research were analyzed by CMA software. Also, two models of random effect and fixed effect were calculated. According to the results of heterogeneous analysis, the randomized model was selected through Q and squared I indices. The findings revealed that the size of the combined effect of the investigated research after the removal of 3 effects size was -0.307. The combined effect size of the research was calculated based on the mean Cohen’s index. The results of heterogeneous analysis revealed of the existence moderating variables in the research as well. The results of this meta- analysis pertaining to theoretical and empirical foundations are indicative of the relationship between procrastination and academic performance variables. Given the results of this meta-analysis, it can be concluded that for academic performance to be successful, it is essential to address the problem of procrastination among university and school students.
