This research has been done to determine the effects of short term group therapy based on the predictive model of social anxiety and compare it with Hofmann's cognitive-behavioral group therapy on social anxiety symptoms in junior high school students. For screening, 210 students who were selected by cluster random sampling completed the LaGreca Social Anxiety Questionnaire. Thirty of them, whose scores were the highest on the LaGreca Social Anxiety Questionnaire, were selected and randomly assigned to three groups (model-based social anxiety group, Hoffman cognitive-behavioral social anxiety group, and control group). Experimental intervention was performed for group 1 (model-based therapy) and group 2 (Hoffman's cognitive-behavioral therapy). Group 3 (control) received no intervention. After six, 90minute, sessions of intervention for groups 1 and 2, all three groups completed the LaGreca Social Anxiety Questionnaire. The results showed that there was a significant difference between the experimental and control group (P = 0.000). But no significant difference was found between experimental groups in decreasing social anxiety symptoms (p = 0.356). According to the findings of the study, model-based social anxiety group therapy was effective in reducing the symptoms of social anxiety. There was also no difference between the two experimental groups in reducing the symptoms of social anxiety.

In recent years, the manufacture of air purification media, especially nanofiber filters using polymeric materials and the electrospinning method, has received much attention in air pollution control. The production of high-performance media and low-pressure drops is an important issue in air filtration. This study aimed to investigate the feasibility of fabricating electrospinning polyethylene terephthalate (PET) media to abduct submicron and micron particles from the air stream.

To determine the optimal device conditions in the manufacture of PET media, different weight percentages of a PET polymer solution in a mixture of trifluoroacetic acid and dichloromethane solvents (70:30) were first prepared in a pilot study, and various parameters of the electrospinning device were examined and analyzed along with performing the electrospinning process. The surface and morphological characteristics of the media were evaluated using SEM. The pressure drop and efficiency of particle trapping were assessed using a mask and media pressure by a pressure drop test device.

The optimal electrospinning conditions of the PET polymer solution were obtained at a concentration of 20%. The average diameter of nanofibers PET was 163 ± 600 nm with a pressure drop of 26.33 ± 5.5 pa, and average efficiencies of 97.42 ± 1.67% and 99.85 ± 0.21 were obtained for submicron and micron particles, respectively, with a quality factor (QF) value of 0.1740.

The produced media can abduct and remove particles from the air stream for submicron and micron particles in ranges of 96-99% and 99-100%, respectively, with an average pressure drop of 26.33±5.5 pa.

The purpose of this study was to determine validation and  standardization of Four Factor Parenting Questionnaire in mothers of elementary school students. Therefore 200 mothers who referred to the Psychological Services and counseling center of Isfahan ministry of Education were randomly through convenience sampling  selected and were asked to answer the Baumrind Parenting Style Inventory (Baumrind) and the items of Four Factor Parenting Questionnaire that is designed by Shyny (2017) based on  the eastern parenting cultural context. The results of confirmatory factor analysis showed that the four factor model fitted the data on the factors were named: Authoritarian, Authoritative, Permissive and Uninvolved (P-VALUE=0.00000). Also the concurrent validity coefficients of the questionnaire with the Baumrind Parenting Style Inventory were satisfactory.  The cronbach alpha coefficients of the factors were also higher than .80.  The results show that the Four Factor Parenting Questionnaire has appropriate characteristics and totally can be used in the Iranian sample and can use it for treatment aims and research.

Objectives Worry is a fundamental cognitive component of Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD). GAD is a chronic disorder. However, few studies have been conducted on the etiologic variables of this disorder. The present study sought to investigate the effectiveness of Dugas’ cognitive therapy on Intolerance of uncertainty, cognitive avoidance, and positive beliefs about worry.

This study was a semi-experimental study with control group. The statistical population included all people with GAD referred to Isfahan counseling centers. The statistical sample of the study was 30 people who were selected by convenient sampling and were randomly assigned to the experimental group (15) and the control group (15). Diagnosis of GAD was performed based on a structured clinical interview with DSM-5 (SCID-5-CV) and clinical diagnosis. For measuring pre-test, post-test and follow-up, the questionnaire of intolerance of uncertainty, cognitive avoidance questionnaire, and why-worry questionnaire were used. The intervention was completed in the form of 12 sessions of 90 minutes. To analyze the data, repeated variance analysis (mixed) was used.

The results showed that Dugas’ cognitive therapy significantly reduced the mean scores of GAD symptoms in the experimental group compared to the control group.

The findings of this research indicate that Dugas’ cognitive therapy has had a positive effect on the intolerance of uncertainty, cognitive avoidance and positive beliefs about worry and reduced symptoms (P<0/05). This treatment can be one of the effective ways to reduce the symptoms of GAD along with other drug interventions.

Adolescence is a time to begin behaviors and conditions that affect well-being at the time but also lead to disorders in adulthood. Despite the family’s importance role in the developing psychological well-being, the direct and indirect effect of family emotions on well-being has been neglected so far.

The purpose of this study was to determine the mediating role of resilience in the relationship between positive and negative emotion expression in family with adolescent psychological well-being.

This study was a descriptive-correlational study. The statistical population of this study consisted of all boy adolescents of Shiraz city that 206 of them were selected as the sample group using multistage cluster sampling and they responded to Conner-Davidson Resilience Scale (2003), the Family Expressiveness Questionnaire (Halberstadt, 1986) and short form of Reefchr('39')s Psychological Well-Being Scale (1989). Path analysis was used for data analysis.

The results of the path analysis showed that the direct effect of positive emotion expression to psychological well-being variable (β= 0/242, T= 4/042) and the direct path of negative emotion expression on the psychological well-being were significant (β= -0/291, T= 4/865). Also, it was shown that the indirect effect of positive emotion expression on the psychological well-being variable through resiliency was significant
(β= 0/063, p< 0/05). Finally, it was shown that the indirect effect of the variable of negative emotion expression on the variable of psychological well-being through resilience was significant (β= -0/058, p< 0/05).

Based on the results of this study, it is suggested to consider the mediating role of resilience in the relationship between positive and negative emotional expression and psychological well-being and therapists to incorporate this component in their therapeutic application.

Reinforcement of civil structures that do not have sufficient resistance to the applied loads is of particularimportance. There are several ways to reinforce concrete structures so far. One of these methods is to usewinding technique on a concrete structure with a fabric. In this study, first, rib knitted structures with andwithout weft inserted yarn were fabricated with two types of ordinary and high tenacity polyester yarn(with a low and high modulus). Then concrete columns were made and winded using produced fabricswith and without tension. The compression test was carried out on the winded columns. The results showthat with increasing tensile modulus of the fabric (such as weft inserted rib fabric with high tenacitypolyester yarn) the compressive strength of the concrete columns increases. Accordingly, while thesample had only 7.52% weight increase and 8.75% increase in diameter compared to the control sample,the bearing capacity of the column showed an increase of 88.55% compared to the control sample. Also,the compressive strength of concrete column is increased by increasing the number of layers windedaround the concrete column.

The purpose of this study was to compare the cognitive emotion regulation strategies profile in students with high and low interpersonal sensitivity. The descriptive and survey method was used. The statistical population was all undergraduate students of the University of Isfahan in the academic year 2018-2019. According multistage cluster random sampling 314 students were selected as samples and they were asked to fill in the Symptom Checklist 90 Revised and Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire. The data were analyzed by the discriminant analysis and multiple correlation method. Findings showed that among 9 investigated strategies in two groups of students with high and low interpersonal sensitivity, the catastrophizing, other-blame, rumination, acceptance were significant (P<0.001). Also, the differences in re-focusing on planning, positive re-evaluation, self-blame, and positive re-focusing between two groups were significant (P<0.05). Considering the small amount of Wilks Lambda and the high amount of the Chi-square and significance level, the audit function has obtained a good diagnostic power for explaining the dependent variable. Based on all cognitive emotion regulation strategies (except putting into perspective), the profile of students with high and low interpersonal sensitivity can be separated.

Few studies have studied the effectiveness of the Dagas model and the effect of the variables that cause the Anxiety disorders, and most researchers have focused on the factors that maintain and sustain the Anxiety disorder. However, there is a research gap in the effectiveness of cognitive therapy based on Dogas model of morbid morbidity, severity of symptoms and causative factors of diffuse anxiety disorder in patients with diffuse diffuse anxiety disorder.

To evaluate the effectiveness of cognitive therapy based on Dogas model of morbid morphology, severity of symptoms and causative factors of diffuse anxiety disorder in patients with diffuse anxiety disorder.

The research was semi-experimental (pre-test, post-test and follow-up) with the control group. The statistical population of the study was all people with diffuse anxiety disorder who referred to Isfahan counseling centers from May to October 2017. Thirty people were selected by available sampling method and randomly assigned to two experimental and control groups (15 people). Research tools include the Pennsylvania State Concerns Questionnaire (Mayer et al., 1990), the Short Scale for Measuring Comprehensive Anxiety Disorder (Sprptzer et al., 2006), the Uncertainty Uncertainty Scale (Freeston et al., 1994);, 2009), Why Worrying Concerns (Hulka et al., 200), Negative Orientation Questionnaire (Gozlin et al., 2005) and twelve 90-minute cognitive therapy sessions based on the Dougas model (Dougas and Rubichaud, 2012). Data analysis was performed by covariance test and Crowit Machli test.

Dagas cognitive therapy on pathological anxiety, severity of GAD symptoms, and GAD etiological factors (negative orientation to the problem, intolerance of uncertainty, cognitive avoidance and positive beliefs about Concern had a significant effect (P< 0/05).

Patients who participated in Dagas cognitive therapy sessions had a lower incidence of morbid anxiety, severity of symptoms, and GAD.

The purpose of this study was investigating the effect of Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) on ability to control weight, Satisfaction with body image, and Life satisfaction in Overweight women in city of Isfahan. The research design was semi-experimental research with pre-test and post-test and control group. Statistical publication also included all of overweight women in city of Isfahan in spring 2017, that were identified by use BMI index above 25. For doing research, 30 of these women were selected by random sampling and were assigned randomly in experimental and control group (15 each), and experimental group treated by MBCT program. In pre-test and post-test stages, Satisfaction work life Scale (SWLS) (Diener, Emmons, Larsen & Griffin, 1985), Multidimensional Body-Self Relations Questionnaire (MBSRQ) (Cash, Winstead & Janda, 1986), and Body Mass Index (BMI) were used. The data was analyzed by Covariance analysis. Results showed that Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) had a significant effects to control weight, Satisfaction with body image, and Life satisfaction in Overweight women in city of Isfahan in experimental group (p < 0.01).

Adolescents with chronic renal failure are exposed to numerous psychological and emotional impairments, and reinforcing emotion regulation can be effective in reducing their psychological stress. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of emotion regulation training on improvement resilience and problem solving styles on adolescents under dialysis. A semi-experimental study was performed on adolescents under dialysis referred to Shiraz dialysis center in 2018. According to inclusion and exclusion criteria, 30 people were selected and randomly assigned to experimental (n = 15) and control (n = 15) groups. The experimental group received emotion regulation training. Data were collected using Resilience Scale and Problem Solving Questionnaire before, after and two months after the sessions. Data were analyzed using repeated measures analysis of variance. The training program was effective in improving resiliency (F = 41.24) and constructive problem-solving (F = 51.53) and reducing non-constructive problem solving (F = 55.43) in the experimental group compared to the control group. The experimental group had higher resiliency and constructive problem -solving style scores than the control group. The F ratio obtained in the educational interventions was significant in improving resilience (56.37), constructive problem solving (63.66) and non-constructive problem solving (69.65) (p <0.001); This means that the subjects' scores in the experimental group increased from the pre-test to the follow-up in the resiliency and constructive problem-solving and decreased in the non-constructive problem solving. Therefore, emotion regulation training can be effective in promoting resilience and problem-solving style in adolescents with chronic kidney disease and under dialysis

The purpose of this study was to examine a developmental model based on variety and acceleration in formation of the processes and strategies of emotion regulation for sadness, anger, fear and pain. Participants were one hundred eight children (age, 4- 12). A directive content analysis was used to gather data through individually standard interviews. Data were collected with semi-structured interviews and observation of children after presentation of emotional scenarios or encountering real situations generating emotion. Data were analysed based on coding the behaviours, sub-strategies, and emotion regulation processes for four emotions of sadness, fear, anger, and pain. Findings showed variety of emotion regulation processes and strategies in formation four emotions. Development of emotion regulation did not show an age-related different pathway for different emotions.

There are hundreds of ways to develop creativity among children, youths and adults. Developing new ideas and ways of teaching creativity should incorporate the interests and hobbies of children and young adults. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of alpha/theta neurofeedback and heart rate variability (HRV) biofeedback on emotional and cognitive creativity in elementary school children in the citly of Isfahan.
The sample consisted of 90 children who participate in the research vulnarably. Participants were randomly assigned to control five experimental groups. Emotional and cognitive creativity were measured by Torrance’s Test of Creativity and Averill’s Emotional Creativity Inventory. The experimental groups participated in 15 HRV biofeedback sessions, 15 alpha/theta neurofeedback sessions. It was hypothesized that each of these methods increases creativity and also have differetnt effects on emotional and cognitive creativity and their components in the experimental groups.
The result of analysis of variance of repeated measures showed that these methods significantly increased emotional and cognitive creativity and their components (p alpha/theta neurofeedback increased cognitive creativity, and heart rate variability (HRV) biofeedback increased emotional creativity.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the developmental trend of spiritual transcendence from adolescence to elderly in the city of Isfahan (90-91). Therefore 409 participants were selected and divided into 4 age groups: 77 subjects in 14-18 age group, 202 subjects in 19-39 age group, 113 subjects in 40-65 age group, and 23 subjects in 66-88 age group from both genders. The sampling in the adolescent group was done using multi-stage random sampling while in other groups it was based on availability. The participants consisted of 213 females and 196 males. The Assessment of Spirituality and Religious Sentiments Scale (ASPIRES) (Piedmont, 2010) was used to study the development of spiritual transcendence. ASPIRES was analyzed to verify its validity and reliability. The results of variance analysis showed that there was a significant difference in the development of the spirituality transcendence between the different age groups (p

This study to do identifying processes and strategies of emotion regulation and designing developmental model based on self-regulation patterns. Thus, this study examined emotion regulation with a developmental perspective in children age 4 - 12 years In Tehran. To 108 children, scenarios including four emotions namely sadness, madness, worry and pain were read. After the stories were read to the subjects and duly understood by them, and once an emotional atmosphere was created, subjects had an emotion regulation interview (ERI) and observation. Findings show that emotion regulation developed from extra-organismic self-regulation (input and output) toward intra-organismic (central processing). This trajectory is situation, attention and perception change, responding and expression modulating and internal-cognitive regulation.

In the future¡ planning and management practices for preventing water crisis are essential¡ because of population growth and more restrictions of water resources in frontier basins. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effect of water resources management policies¡ including development and improvement of pressurized irrigation systems and improving management of surface irrigation systems¡ on the sustainability of agricultural and water resources in Aras basin. For this purpose¡ an integrated water resources management using system dynamics model was developed for Aras basin by considering economic and environmental aspects. These Policies were analyzed in the form of several scenarios. The results showed that 4000-ha annual development of pressurized irrigation systems would cause to increase basin efficiency only 2.5 percent until the year of 1420¡ regardless of improvement in water application efficiency. The effect of management improvement scenarios of surface irrigation systems was more than combined scenarios of development and improvement of pressurized irrigation systems in terms of water saving in Aras basin. So that the saving water by increasing one percent surface irrigation application efficiency is equal to water saving through development of 22000 hectare pressurized irrigation systems with application efficiency of 67 percent. In general¡ both the abovementioned policies should be performed together in order to prevent water crisis and sustainable management of water resources in Aras basin. In this regard¡ the improvement of surface irrigation systems should be considered as the main strategy and development and improvement of pressurized irrigation systems should be followed as an auxiliary strategy.

This study aimed to investigate the development of formal operations from adolescence through adulthood. The sample consisted of 345 participants in four age groups (15-18 years-old: n=108; 19-29 years-old: n=104; 30-45 years-old: n=44; 46 years-old and elder :n=51). All groups were selected using random sampling. The first group was selected from high schools and the other groups were selected based on municipal areas of Isfahan. The study design was causal-comparative. The participants completed the Logical Reasoning Test (LRT; Burney, 1974). The data were analyzed using analysis of variance and chi square methods. The results indicated that there were no significant group effects on LRT. The pairwise comparisons were significant between total scores of 15-18 years-old and 19-29 year-olds. The age groups didn’t have significant differences in terms of frequencies of individuals who were in the concrete, transitional, and formal operations stages. The developmental trend of formal operations remained constant after adolescence. The findings were discussed based on Piaget and Neo-Piagetian cognitive developmental theories.

The control and managing water crisis can be offered and applied different strategies. In this regard, policies of changes in cropping pattern and deficit irrigation management can be considered as two strategies for optimal consumption of agricultural water. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effect of these policies on the sustainability of agricultural and water resources in Aras basin. For this purpose, developing a system dynamics model of water resources management in Aras basin by considering economic and environmental aspects and three scenarios of changes in cropping pattern and six scenarios of deficit irrigation management were analyzed. Results showed that if using other strategies is not possible, combining of 40 percent deficit irrigation scenario with existing or optimal cropping pattern can be used to control and manage water resources in Aras basin. Also, reducing 3 percent of withdrawing of groundwater resources in agriculture, considering the high potential of surface water resources in Aras basin, will lead to sustainability of water resources and it was suggested that this strategy should be considered by managers as effective policy for reducing problems of water crisis in this basin.

The purpose of this study was to predict the tendency of high risk behaviors based on religious beliefs, emotion seeking, environmental polution and media in female university students. The population included all female students at the University of Isfahan. Thus, in a correlational research design, 290 students were randomly selected and were assessed by Iranian Adolescents Risk Taking Scale (IADS), the Questionnaire for Measurement Rate of Use of Media (elyasi, 1393), Emotion Seeking Scale (Zukerman), Questionnaire of Religious Beliefs (Keshavarz & et al., 1389), a researcher-made scale for environmental pollution, and the Demographic Questionnaire. Results of Pearson correlation showed that religious beliefs, emotion seeking, squalor milieu, age of testees had significant relationship with high risk behaviors. In addition results of hierarchical regression showed that from among first rank variables, doing the religious rituals, uninhibition, squalor milieu, the use of virtual and social network; and from among second rank variables parents age can predict 54.9% of tendency to high risk behaviors in female students (P

Fibromyalgia is a chronic and widespread pain syndrome, which is often accompanied by emotional disturbances. In this study, a hypothetical model of the effect of alexithymia, anxiety, and depression on pain severity in female patients with fibromyalgia in Tehran was tested.
In this cross sectional study, we selected 150 women with Fibromyalgia via convenience sampling. The patients were completed alexithymia (TAS-20), depression and anxiety (HADS), and pain intensity (SF-MPQ) scales.
The results indicated that the structural model of the variables was fitting well. Pain variable was found to be correlated with Alexithymia, depression, and anxiety. In this model, Alexithymia, depression, and anxiety have significant effects on pain severity.
This study demonstrated that anxiety and depression, which may be avoided and not expressed by individual, can affect pain in women with fibromyalgia. The findings suggest that interventions based on emotion regulation can effect on decreasing pain intensity in women suffering from fibromyalgia.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between empathy forgiveness and marital satisfaction of couples in Isfahan. Therefore 100 couples were randomly selected and were asked to respond to Enriching Marital Sticfaction Scale (1993), Emotional Empathy Scale (1972), Familly Forgiveness Scale (1998) and a demographic questanaire. The resualt of regression analysis showed that empathy and emotional forgiveness can significantly predict cognitive satisfaction of couples (P<%5). Also the wife̕s and husband̓s age can significantly predict relationship satisfaction. (P<%5).
