The purpose of this study was to find factors and obtain reliability of The Ribeiro's Satisfaction with Social Support Scale in mothers referred to health centers in Tehran in 1394.

Five hundred women were selected randomly via multi-period method and completed The Ribeiro's satisfaction of social support scale.

Exploratory factor analysis with principal components analysis identified four factors for satisfaction with social support: Satisfaction with friends (with 4items), satisfaction with family / intimacy (with 6 items), perceived social support of friends (with  2 items) and the satisfac- tion of the community (with 2 items). The contribution of each factor identified in the total variance was 33.74, 19.395, 12.638, and 7.836respectively. The components of internal consistency with Cronbach's alpha coefficient  was equal to 0.953, 0.843, 0.888, 0.648 respectively, which represented an acceptable internal consistency of extracted factors. Conclusion This scale was made for measuring of satisfaction with social support in women. It is recommended that psychologists and counselors can use this scale for measuring the satisfaction with social support in women.

This Study is intended to evaluate the Psyhometric characteristics and norm of Metacognitive state questionnaire (MCQ) of high school students in Bojnord city. This reaserch has been done whith the hypothesis that MCQ is considered as a tool to measure the students metacognitive states. The study population includes all male and female high school students( first period) that have been studying  in publish high schools of Bojnord in the 2015-16 academic year. Of the population, 126 males and 227 fameles were selected using stage cluster sampeling. Reaserch method is Correlation-based. The data collection tool also includes test for students metacognitive state. The resuts show that the questionnaire has good validity and reliability and norm.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the psychometric characteristics of Adolescent Dissociative Experiences Scale (A-DES) in Iranian society. This study was form descriptive-type research. The study sample consisted of 530 students (280 female and 250 male) selected in a multistage random cluster among students of Alborz Province high schools;After the translation of the Dissociative Experiences Scale of teens and revert back to the original language, the scale was translated into Farsi again. After final approval, surveys were taken for implementation of questionnaires in the sample. In order to answer the research questions and examine the hypotheses of research, analyses of classical psychometric theory including analysis of exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis with principal components were used. Also to check the validity of the scale, some methods were used including the correlation between the total score and subscales as convergent validity, dividing method and Cronbach's alpha coefficient to estimate the internal consistency and tables of norm scale for presenting the Z sigma-aligned scores, the T score and rating percent in SPSS software. The results showed that exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis showed the validity of the test to measure the Dissociative Experiences of teens in the Iranian community. The results of this study confirmed the convergent validity of Dissociative Experiences Scale of juveniles in Iran. Estimated coefficients showed reliability of scale and subscales in both dimensions of internal consistency and reliability. Also regarding the results of comparison of juveniles Dissociative Experiences scores and its subscale in gender groups, norm scale was drafted based on the percentile ranks and Z and T-standard scores for all subjects.

The aim of this study was to evaluate relationship between the cognitive emotion regulation strategies with depression, anxiety, and stress in university students. Structural equations method was used for investigation of the relationships between the variables. The data were collected from Islamic Azad University, Central Branch in Tehran in the form of stage cluster sampling. A sample including 360 individuals responded to the cognitive emotion regulation questionnaire, out of which 82 persons also responded to the depression anxiety stress scale (Dass .21), in addition to the cognitive emotion regulation questionnaire. In confirmatory factorial analysis of the cognitive emotion regulation questionnaire using Amos 21, 10 questions were eliminated, culmina- ting in a 26-item questionnaire with seven factors, which confirmed the theoretical background. The measurement model enjoyed a favorable fitting. The structural model among the variables (cognitive emotion regulation with Dass) had a suitable fitting. There was a negative significant relationship between the positive strategies of cognitive emotion regulation and the factors of Dass scale. Similarly, there was a positive significant relationship between the negative strategies of the cognitive emotion regulation and the factors of Dass Scale.

Research on perfectionism has evolved from initial presentation of unidimen- sional construct to development of several independent multidimensional conceptualizations of perfectionism, this itself has developed numerous measu- ring tools to measure key and essential characteristic features of perfectionism; therefore this research was aimed to investigate psychometric properties of Multidimensional Perfectionism Cognitions Inventory-English version (Stoebe &  Kobori,2010). This was descriptive survey research and practical in term of purpose. The population of all the public hospitals in Tehran that sample of 190 nurses at Tehran’s hospitals was selected by using cluster random sampling from Milad Hospital, Imam Khomeini Hospital, Sadr Hospital, Kashani Hospital and Shahid Modarres Hospital completed inventory in 2015.

Findings revealed that Cronbach’s alpha is acceptable (α=0.79), factor analytic by using LISREL have extracted 3subscales from 15 items of inventory.

Based on these findings, Multidimensional Perfectionism Cogni- tions Inventory has acceptable validity and reliability and can be used in Iranian population specially nurses. Further studies are recommended with a larger sample.

Moral psychology has experienced a “renaissance” in recent years. Research on the emotional, cognitive, and social determinants of moral judgment has surged in recent years. The development of moral foundations theory (MFT) has played an important role, demonstrating the breadth of morality. Moral psychology has responded by investigating how different domains of moral judgment are shaped by a variety of psychological factors.The aim of this study was to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Persian form of Moral Foundations Questionnaire (MFQ30). For this end, 250 teachers (125 male, 125 female) were selected randomly among the teachers of the Moghan city, and responded to Moral Foundations Questionnaire and Schwartz Value Survey (SVS). Psychometric Properties of the moral foundations questionnaire were evaluated. Results Cronbach's alpha for Moral in general was about 79% and  for the subscales care / harm, fairness, loyalty to the group, respect for authority and purity were respectively, 58%, 79%, 61%, 70% and 73% . Results of confirmatory factor analysis also showed that this questionnaire has a good fit. The convergent validity of the question- naire, along with the simultaneous implementation Schwartz Value Survey (SVS) evaluated and convergent validity of the Moral Foundations Questionnaire was confirmed. Overall Persian form of the Moral Foundations Questionnaire has a good reliability and validityand it can be used in different investigations in Iran.
