The present study was conducted with the aim of investigating the effectiveness of integrated meta-diagnostic treatment on sensation seeking and fear of negative evaluation of girls affected by Instagram. The research design was quasi-experimental and within the framework of pre-test, post-test and follow-up plans with a control group. The statistical population consisted of 20 female students aged 15 to 18 in Tehran in 1399-1400 who were addicted to Instagram and their sensation seeking and fear of negative evaluation scores were higher than the cutoff score. Voluntary sampling was done in two groups of 10 people, experimental and control. The results of data analysis showed that the integrated meta-diagnostic intervention produced significant changes on sensation seeking and fear of negative evaluation between the experimental and control groups. Also, a significant difference between the experimental and control groups was revealed in the sensation-seeking subscales (experimentalism, adventure, boredom, avoidance of inhibition). The findings showed that the integrated meta-diagnostic treatment approach has been able to reduce excitement seeking and fear of negative evaluation in teenage girls on Instagram and subsequently reduce the desire to seek likes and approval in these people.

The purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of parent-child interaction training, attachment-based therapy and self-regulation skill training on preschool children's emotion control. This research was carried out in the form of a semi-experimental design on 48 preschool students of Islam Shahr with available sampling method and these people were randomly replaced in three experimental groups (n=36) and a control group (n=12). became Then the experimental groups were subjected to parent-child interaction training, attachment-based therapy and self-regulation skill training, and the control group did not receive any training. The data collection tool was the child's emotion management questionnaire (Ziman et al., 2001), which was administered before and after the training. Descriptive tables and statistical methods of one-way analysis of variance with differential scores of multivariate covariance analysis and Bonferroni's adjustment test were used to describe and analyze the collected data. The results show that, in the comparison between the influence of each of the experimental groups on reducing the differential score of emotional control of preschool children, the results of the effect size showed, respectively, the parent-child interaction training groups (ƞ=0.681), treatment based Attachment (0.630=2ƞ) and self-regulation skill (0.408=2ƞ) had the highest effect on reducing differential scores of emotional control of preschool children.

The purpose of this research was to investigate the effectiveness of positive psychology training on perceived social support and self-criticism in women heads of households.

The method of this research is semi-experimental. The statistical population of this research includes all female heads of households in District 6 of Mashhad city, whose number is equal to 250 people. The sample of the present study includes 30 women heads of households who were selected voluntarily and available and randomly replaced in two experimental and control groups. The training group was trained and after the completion of the sessions and 2 months after the training, both groups answered the questionnaires. To measure the variables, Zimet et al.'s perceived social support questionnaires (1988) and Thompson and Zurov's (2004) self-criticism level scale have been used.

The findings show that positive psychology training was effective on the perceived social support and self-criticism of female household heads (P<0.05).

From the findings of this research, it can be concluded that positive psychology training can reduce self-criticism and increase perceived social support in women, as a result, it can improve quality of life, life satisfaction, and mental and psychological well-being. increase in these people.

Improving mental health and paying attention to the effect of color in classroom environments, as a space where students spend many hours, is one of the most positive steps towards matching aspects of the physical environment with the behaviors of the users of the space. Therefore, evaluating the effect of color on the mental health of students as the future builders of the country, who must have a very high level of mental health, has been the main goal of this research. The governing approach of this research is "applied" and interventional research. In order to measure the child's strengths and weaknesses, a questionnaire (SDQ) that has five subscales of emotional symptoms, behavior problems, hyperactivity-attention deficit, communication problems with peers and pro-social behaviors has been used.The findings showed that since the significance level for boys is lower than the significance level of 0.05, it can be said with 95% confidence that the mean hyperactivity symptoms of male students before and after coloring are different. But the significance level for girls is greater than the significance level of 0.05, so with 95% confidence it can be said that the mean hyperactivity symptoms of female students before and after coloring are not different. Finally, it can be concluded that the coloring of the classes had an effect on the signs of hyperactivity of male students, but it did not affect the signs of hyperactivity of female students.

The purpose of this research was to determine the effectiveness of group therapy-based skill training on the difficulty in regulating emotions and self-compassion in depressed middle-aged married women aged 35 to 50 years. Semi-experimental research method of pre-test and post-test type along with control group during a period of two months in 2019 among depressed women who referred to the health center of district 1 of Tehran. They were randomly selected. Hope therapy training adapted from Snyder's book (2002) was taught to the experimental group in 8 sessions of 90 minutes. Analysis of the findings using univariate covariance analysis showed that group training based on hope therapy increases self-compassion and reduces the difficulty in regulating emotions in the sample group. The results of the research indicate that women who have self-compassion and difficult skills in emotional regulation have more control over things, and the less psychological and emotional problems women have, the more satisfied they are with themselves.

Considering the serious consequences of high-risk behavior for the individual and society and the importance of investigating these behaviors with valid tools, the present study was conducted with the aim of investigating the psychometric properties and factor structure of the high-risk, impulsive, and self-destructive behavior questionnaire and the emotional measures of high-risk behavior. In a cross-sectional analytical study, 401 adults were selected from the general population of Kermanshah (201 people) and Sanandaj (200 people) and were measured using the risky, impulsive and self-destructive behavior questionnaire and the impulsive behavior scale. The data were analyzed by applying correlation tests and confirmatory factor analysis and using SPSS-26 and Mplus-7 software. Cronbach's alpha and halving coefficient of three parts of risky behavior, negative emotional motivation and positive emotional motivation were 0.91, 0.91, 0.93, 0.91, 0.93 and 0.92, respectively. The factor structure of risky behavior part (RMSEA=0.02, CFI=0.98, TFI=0.98), negative emotional motivation (RMSEA=0.05, CFI=0.93, TFI=0.93) and positive emotional motivation (RMSEA=0.03, CFI=0.96, TFI= 0.96) was confirmed. Positive correlations between high-risk behavior domains and impulsivity dimensions indicated the criterion validity of the questionnaire. The obtained results indicate the reliability and validity of the questionnaire, and considering that this tool measures a wide range of high-risk behaviors despite being relatively short, it can be a suitable tool for use in research and screening.
