In recent years in Iran, several studies have examined the effectiveness of acceptance commitment therapy and integrated behavior couple therapy in the field of conflict resolution and fertility of the marital relationship. The aim of this study was to integrate the results of these studies and compare the impact of these interventions on the components of marital quality. For this purpose, meta-analysis was used as a statistical technique to determine, collect, combine and summarize research findings related to the effectiveness of acceptance commitment therapy and integrated behavioral couple therapy on the components of marital quality of couples. . The statistical population of the study includes studies conducted in Iran in the field of medicine and the statistical sample includes studies conducted in this field within Iran. For this purpose, 22 studies were selected and after reviewing 17 studies that were methodologically acceptable were selected and analyzed. The research tool was a meta-analysis checklist and CMA software was used to analyze the data. The results showed the magnitude of the combined effect of the treatments (P <0.01) Equivalent to d = 2.513, which is equivalent to g=2.458, and zr=1.075. Also, the results did not show a significant difference between the effect size of treatment based on acceptance commitment therapy and integrated behavior couple therapy. Therefore, it can be said that based on the results of this meta-analysis, couples therapy based on acceptance, commitment and integrated behavior is effective in improving the marital quality components of couples.

The present study was conducted to investigate the effectiveness of training self-differentiation on the attachment quality and alexitimia in the adolescents engaged in divorce with externalized behavior. It was a quasi-experimental study with pretest, posttest, control group and two-month follow-up design. The statistical population of the present study included the students engaged in divorce with externalized behaviors who were studying in the first and second year high schools in academic year 2019-20 in the city of Shahrekord. 40 adolescents were selected through purposive sampling mehtod and they were randomly accommodated into experimental and control groups (20 adolescents in the experimental group and 20 adolescents in the control group). The experimental group received ten ninety-minute intervention sessions of training self-differentiation (Kazemian and Esmaeili, 2012) during two-and-a-half months. After starting the intervention, 4 adolescents from the experimental and 3 from the control group quitted receiving the intervention. The applied questionnaires in this study included children and adolescents behavioral inventory (Achenbach, Rescorla, 2001), attachment quality questionnaire (Armsden, Greenberg, 1987) and Alexitimia questionnaire (Bagby, Parker, Taylor, 1994). the resutls showed that training self-differentiation has significant effect on the attachment quality and alexitimia in the adolescents engaged in divorce with externalized behaviors. The findings of the present study revealed that training self-differentiation can be used as an efficient method to decrease attachment quality and alexitimia in the adolescents engaged in divorce wiht externalized divorce through employing techniques such as differentiating rational from irrational beliefs, equipping the members with special communicative skills and shouldering the responsibility.

Conscious and deliberate behaviours that despite of positive consequences finally led to failure are called self-defeating behaviours. The major aim of the current research was “Construction, Reliability and Validity of Academic Self-defeating Behaviour Questionnaire in Adolescents”.

In this descriptive survey study the statistical population included the secondary school students in Tehran in the academic year 2020-2021. The research sample included a total of 1265 person (548 boys and 717 girls) that selected by cluster random sampling methods. To develop the questionnaire, we reviewed previous studies of Academic Self-defeating Behaviour, Cunningham Self-defeating Behavior Questionnaire (54) and investigating components based on theoretical literature.To evaluate the construct validity, data were divided into two groups (633 and 632 people). The first half data were used for exploratory factor analysis and the second half data were used for confirmatory factor analysis.

The results of exploratory factor analysis showed that 35 items have high loading on 3 factors, included "procrastination/self-handicapping, ""inability to goal orientation/performance, " and "inaccurate self-assessment, " which together explained 0/38 of the total variance of questionnaire. After combining the items, confirmatory factor analysis showed that the model has a good fit with the data.Too the internal consistency of the total questionnaire was obtained 0.85.Discussion and

The present questionnaire was developed to investigate academic self-defeating behaviour and our findings revealed that the mentioned questionnaire met desirable validity and reliability, so that it can be used along with other diagnostic tools to assess academic self-defeating behaviour.

One of the most critical periods of life is adolescence. It is a period of rapid physical growth and emotional and psychological changes. Most behavioral incompatibilities are manifested in this period. Tendency to high-risk behaviors is one of the behavioral maladaptations of adolescence.

The present study is descriptive and correlational. The statistical population includes all male high school students in the city of Langrud who were studying in the academic year 1399-1400. Participants in the study were 265students from different schools in Langarud who were selected by multi-stage cluster sampling. Data were collected using the Iranian Adolescent Risk Scale(IARS), the Bamrind Parenting Styles Questionnaire, the Connor & Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RIS) and the Adjustment Questionnaire. Excitement of John and Gross (2002) was collected. Structural equation modeling and AMOS software were used to evaluate the fit of the researcher's proposed model.

Parenting styles powerfully, authoritarian and careless, have a significant effect on high-risk behavior by regulating emotion and resilience.

Based on the findings of the present study, powerfully parenting style leads to a reduction in high-risk behaviors.

Today, eating disorders are one of the most notable mental disorders and its prevalence has increased in recent decades. These disorders cause problems with physical health and mental function. The aim of this study was to investigate the mediating role of self-compassion in the relationship between eating disorders and self-harming behaviors in female students. The method of this research was descriptive-correlation based on the method of modeling regression structural equations. The statistical population was 250 female students studying in Gorgan universities in 1300-1400. They were selected by available sampling method and answered the questionnaires of self-compassion (2003), self-harm Sanson (1998) and Garner eating feedback questionnaire (1979). Structural equation method was used to analyze the data. Also, all analyzes were performed using SPSS software version 24 and Liserl_8.80. Findings showed that self-harming behaviors and eating disorders negatively and significantly predict their compassion (p<0.001). Self-compassion also mediated the relationship between eating disorders and self-harming behaviors (p<0.001). Based on the research findings, it can be concluded that the present research model had statistically acceptable fit indices.

The purpose of this study was to present a structural relationship model between sense of coherence and responsibility with job performance through mediating role of emotional intelligence (Case Study of bushehr ports and maritime organization and Sina port and marine compony).
