This research was a semi-experimental pretest-posttest design and a control group.

Being selected through the convenience sampling procedure, the sample was comprised of 14 participants who where randomly divided into experimental and control groups. The experimental group received a 10-session group therapy treatment that lasted for 00 to 110 minutes while the control group did not receive the treatment.

The aim of current research was to investigate the relationship between school culture and academic alienation considering mediating role of academic self-efficacy. 600 first grade high school male students in Urmia city were selected using stratified sampling method and completed to school culture, academic self efficacy and academic alienation questionnaires. Path analysis was used for data analysis. Findings revealed that academic self efficacy had a mediating role in relationship between school culture and academic alienation. Also, academic self efficacy had negative and significant effect on academic alienation. Among dimensions of school culture (student's relations, students-teachers relations, normative expectations and educational opportunities), the effects of students and students-teachers relations and educational opportunities on academic self efficacy were positive and significant. But the normative expectations did not have significant effects on this variable. Consequently, tested model fit well and predicted 181 of variance in academic alienation.

The present study aimed to show the effect of response inhibition training on selective attention and improvement of motor skills in students with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). This study wassemi-Experimental with pre test- posttest and control group. Sample of this study was 40
students with ADHD that randomly assigned into two groups experimental and control (every group 10 student). Experimental group received 10 hours response inhibition training. Conner’s Parent Rating Scale (1018) and clinical interview by questionnaire of attention deficit / hyperactivity disorder based on Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5-1016) were used to measure student’s ADHD disorder severity. Findings were analyzed with Multivariate Analyze of Covariance. Data showed that selective attention and motor skills in experimental group increased in post test after receiving response inhibition training. Accordingly, we suggest that practitioners to use response inhibition training program in clinical situation with the aim of promoting selective attention and motor skills in children with ADHD.

The objective of the present study was to determine the direct and mediating role of the emotional schemas (ES), rumination and experimental avoidance (EA) on depression. The subjects of this descriptive-cross-sectional research were 436 female college students (whit current MDD=03, whit history of MDD in last 11 month=631) from six different branches of Payam-e-Noor University in Tehran that were selected via convenience sampling method. In this study Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV Axis I & II (SCID), Leahy Emotional Schemas Scale (LESS), Ruminative Response Scale (RSS; Nolen-Hoeksema, 1001), Acceptance and Action Questionnaire (AAQ-II), and the Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II; Beck et al, 1000) was used. Results indicated that the proposed model fit well (X1= 6051; p>0005). Emotional schemas (ES), rumination and experimental avoidance had direct and significant effect on depression. Finally, results indicated that emotional schemas had an indirect effect on depression that was mediated by experimental avoidance. This study suggests that it is better to attend of emotional schemas, rumination and experimental avoidance in treating depression.

The reliability for sub-scales of questionnaire via internal consistency method Cronbach’s alphas was range (0086 to 0080) and via test-retest method correlations was (0011 to 0081) suggested good reliability of the Persian version of this questionnaire. Existence of special correlation patterns between subscales of this questionnaire and NEO Five-Factor Inventory indicated good criterion validity of the scale. In addition, the validity of the scale was investigated by using confirmatory and explanatory factor analysis that supported the original five factor model and indicated adequate validity of questionnaire.
