The present study was conducted with the aim of explaining the causal relationship between motivation for progress and academic self-concept with the level of academic engagement and the mediating role of perfectionism. The participants included 300 first high school students of Semnan in the academic year 1400-1401, who were selected by random cluster sampling method. In order to measure the variables of the research, the questionnaires of Hermans progress motivation, Dr. Delaware's academic self-concept, Rio's academic conflict, identity perfectionism and Felt were used. Imus software and path analysis method were used to evaluate the proposed model. The findings showed that according to the values of the indicators obtained, progress motivation, academic self-concept, and perfectionism positively predict the level of students' academic engagement. Therefore, according to the obtained results, it indicates that increasing and strengthening the level of self-concept and positive coma, as well as creating the motivation for progress in students can increase the academic engagement of students, and there is a positive relationship between the motivation for progress and academic engagement, also the results indicate the relationship There was a positive relationship between academic self-concept and academic engagement.

Clarifying how the relationship between Perceived partner responsiveness (PPR) and Marital intimacy (MI) of individuals will differ at different levels of attachment styles and the extent and direction of this correlation in which of the attachment styles will be significant, was a problem. The aim of this study was to determine the moderating role of attachment styles in the relationship between PPR and MI. The research method was descriptive-survey in terms of data collection and correlational in terms of data analysis. The statistical population of this research was all of the married female nurses in Zanjan city in 2021. Convenience sampling method was used to select the sample and ultimately 317 nurses participated in this study. The scales used in this study were the Personal Assessment of Intimacy in Relationships (PAIR), Perceived Partner Responsiveness Scale (PPRS) and Experiences in Close Relationships– Revised (ECR-R). Pearson's correlation coefficient, path analysis and process analysis were used to analyze the dataset. Both in the simple model and in the model which encompasses interactive effects of the variables, the PPR had the greatest effect in explaining the variance of the dependent variable. After including the interactive effects into the model, only the interactive effect of PPR and attachment avoidance added approximately 2% to the explained variance of the dependent variable (β = .09, p < .05). Therefore, only avoidant attachment partially moderated the relationship between those two variables. The findings of the present study showed that insecure individuals are not necessarily evasive of intimacy and PPR is the construct that can provide the basis for the experience of intimacy in them.

The aim of this study was to model the relationship between successful intelligence and cognitive flexibility with academic well-being, the mediating role of creative thinking in high school students. The present study was a descriptive-correlation of structural equations. The statistical population of the study included all male high school students in Shahrekord who were selected 327 people by stratified sampling method. The research instruments included Tominin-Sweeney et al.'s (2012) Academic weel being Questionnaire, Grigorenko & Sternberg (2002) Successful Intelligence Questionnaire, Dennis &Vander Wal (2010) Cognitive Flexibility Questionnaire, and Peter Hani's (2001) Creative Thinking Questionnaire. Data were analyzed at both descriptive and inferential levels using SPSS software version 23 and AMOS software version 22. The results showed that the model of the relationship between successful intelligence and cognitive acceptance flexibility with academic well-being with the mediating role of creative thinking has a good fit (RMSE = 0.07; GFI, TLI, RFI, NFI, IFI, PNFI and CFI indices were more than 0.90). The results of the hypotheses showed that there is a direct relationship between successful intelligence and academic well-being (α <0.05); There is a significant relationship between cognitive flexibility and academic well-being directly and indirectly (through creative thinking) (α <0.05); There is a significant relationship between creative thinking and academic well-being (α <0.05). Based on this, it can be said that the model of the relationship between successful intelligence and cognitive flexibility with academic well-being with the mediating role of creative thinking has a desirable fit.

The aim of the present study was to compare the executive functions of children with disruptive mood dysregulation disorder (DMDD) with an emphasis on response inhibition, organization, and decision-making/planning with healthy peers. The current study was a descriptive and causal-comparative study, and our statistical population included all children with DMDD and normal children in Tabriz between the ages of 8-12 years. With the cooperation of one of the psychological clinics, after screening by clinical diagnostic interview based on DSM-5, 30 children with disruptive mood dysregulation disorder were selected by available sampling. A number of 30 normal children were matched with the patient group by random sampling in terms of age and gender. The data was obtained with the Coolidge neuropsychological and personality scale, a parent-as-respondent assessment tool. Multivariate analysis of variance test was used to analyze the data and the results showed that the two groups differ significantly from each other in terms of all three components of executive function. In other words, compared to children with DMDD, normal children suffer less from problems related to executive functions in the areas of response inhibition, organization, and decision-making/planning. The findings of the present study have significant research and clinical implications regarding the role of DMDD in the destruction of executive function, as well as the need to formulate and apply therapeutic methods focused on executive function defects in this group.

The purpose of this research was to determine the Effectiveness of Teaching Acceptance and Commitment on Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and Generalized Anxiety of Students. The research method was semi-experimental with a pre-test-post-test design with a control group. The statistical population in this research included all female students aged 14 to 16 years of Devati schools in Tabriz city in the academic year 1401-1402. The statistical sample consisted of 30 female students with obsessive-compulsive and generalized anxiety symptoms who were introduced by the school counselor and were selected by non-random sampling method and randomly placed in two experimental and control groups. Both groups were tested in the pre-test and post-test stages with Yale Brown's obsessive-compulsive questionnaire (1986), (CY-BOCS) and the short-form scale of generalized anxiety disorder by Spitz et al. (2006), (GAD-7). were evaluated. The experimental group received the acceptance and commitment training program for 10 sessions of 90 minutes, one day a week. The data obtained from the research were analyzed by multivariate analysis of covariance. The significance level was considered 0/05 in all tests. The findings showed that there was a significant difference between the experimental and control groups in both obsessive-compulsive and pervasive anxiety variables. According to the results obtained in this research, teaching acceptance and commitment can greatly reduce the problems of obsession and anxiety of students.

The aim of this research was to investigate the relationship of perceived parenting styles and cognitive flexibility, identity styles with mediating role of identity styles. Path analysis was used to analyze the data. The study community included all students of Tabriz University in academic year 1402, that among them 206 students were selected as a sample using the available sampling method using Klein's formula. Research questionnaires included Parental authority questionnaire by buri (1991), Cognitive flexibility inventory dennis and vander wal (2010), and identity styles inventory by Berzonsky (1992). data were analyzed by path analysis using AMOS24 and SPSS26. Findings showed that perceived parenting styles has directly (p < 0.01) and indirectly related to cognitive flexibility with mediating the role of identity styles. also, the research model had an acceptable fit. Perceived parenting styles had a relationship with cognitive flexibility through the mediating role of informational identity style (p < 0.01). Additionally, perceived parenting styles had a relationship with levels of cognitive flexibility through the mediating role of confused-avoidant identity style (p < 0.05); however, no mediating relationship was observed for normative identity style It can be concluded that the perceived parenting styles play a critical role in student cognitive flexibility (p < 0.05).

The present study aimed to shorten and prepare two parallel forms of the Trust in God (TiG) scale and examine their psychological characteristics in married men and women. According to the purpose, the current research is of the applied type, and in terms of the data collection method, it is descriptive. The research population included all married persons in the north, south, east, west, and center of Tehran, from which 773 people were selected using Cohen's sampling formula and multi-stage cluster sampling method. Confirmatory factor analysis and correlation measurement with other tools were used to investigate the psychometric properties of parallel forms. The results showed that both parallel forms of TiG scale have good fit indices in men and women, which indicated the appropriateness of the construct validity of TiG short forms. Cronbach's alpha coefficient and correlation between the dimensions of two parallel forms were used to check the reliability, and the results indicated that the values in all three dimensions of behavior, cognition, and emotion of TiG forms were appropriate. Also, all dimensions in both forms of TiG showed positive and significant correlations with the subscales of secure attachment to God and secure attachment of adults; on the contrary, they had negative and significant correlations with the subscales of anxious attachment to God, avoidant attachment to God, and anxious attachment of adults, which shows the appropriate convergent and divergent validity. In conclusion, it can be said both parallel forms have suitable psychometric properties for psychological research.

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder is one of the disorders that affects all aspect of life and leaves destructive effects in patients' lives in the long term. The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of acceptance and commitment therapy along with exposure and response prevention with schema therapy along with exposure and response prevention on perfectionism and experiential avoidance of patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder. It was semi-experimental research that had pre-test and post-test with a control group. The statistical population of the present study included all patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder in 2023 in Isfahan city. After the clinical interview, 60 people were selected by available sampling method and randomly assigned in two experimental groups and one control group (20 people in each group). The experimental groups received eight 60-minute sessions of acceptance and commitment therapy with exposure and response prevention and schema therapy with exposure and response prevention. Frost's perfectionism questionnaire and acceptance and action questionnaire second version were used in this research. The results were evaluated through the statistical method of multivariate analysis of covariance. The findings data showed that the effectiveness of both treatments on perfectionism and experiential avoidance were statistically significant. Schema therapy with exposure and response prevention is more effective on experiential avoidance and the effectiveness of both treatments on perfectionism was the same. It is suggested to use schema therapy or acceptance and commitment therapy along with exposure and response prevention.

Couple burnout, as a traumatic phenomenon in couples' interactions,can disrupt and separate the focus of the relationship, leading to undesirable consequences. It is therefore important to investigate the factors that influence it. Based on this,the aim of the present study was to determine the mediating role of marital relationship quality and covert relational aggression in the relationship between Internet addiction and couple burnout.The current research is a descriptive study conducted on 337 married women in Tehran in 1402. Participants were selected using the accessible sampling method.Research data were collected using questionnaires on couple burnout (Pines;1996), covert relational aggression (Nelson& Carroll;2006), internet addiction (Yang; 2009), and relationship quality scale (Chonody and et al.; 2016). Data were analysed using Pearson correlation and path analysis. The results of mediation analysis showed that the direct effect of Internet addiction on couple burnout was significant (β=0.210; p=0.000).The indirect effect of Internet addiction on couple burnout was significant both through Covert Relational Aggression and through the quality of the couple's relationship (β=0.039;p=0.002andβ=0.128;p=0.002,respectively).Therefore,Covert Relational Aggression and marital relationship quality had a partial mediating role in the relationship between Internet addiction and couple burnout.The results of this research may be useful to mental health researchers and therapists by extending theoretical concepts in the field of couple therapy and providing new insights into the complexity of relationships. In addition, from a practical point of view, it can be used as a basis for the design of interventions for the improvement of couple relationships.

Marital infidelity is considered a destructive damage in the life of couples, which affects the lives of children in addition to the husband and wife. This research was conducted with the aim of identifying the experiences of behaviors and coping styles of adult children affected by parental infidelity.
