Obesity is a growing problem in human societies that is associated with many negative individual and social consequences; therefore, effective interventions need to be identified to reduce these complications. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of group therapy based on the transtheoretical model in early maladaptive schemas of women with obesity. The research method was quasi-experimental with pre-test, post-test, and follow-up with the control group. The statistical population of the present study consisted of all obese women admitted to the clinics in Tehran in 2019. Of these, 30 women were selected based on inclusion criteria and available sampling methods and were randomly allocated to two groups: an experimental group and a control group, each containing 15 women. The research instrument was Yang's Schema Questionnaire. The group therapy based on the transtheoretical model was performed in the form of 28 90-minute sessions for the experimental group and no intervention was performed for the control group. A mixed ANOVA was performed in SPSS-18 was used to analyze the data. The results showed that group therapy based on the transtheoretical model had a significant effect on reducing the initial maladaptive schemas of women with obesity in the experimental group in the post-test and follow-up stages (p<0.005). Based on the research findings, it seems that the transtheoretical model has an effect on correcting the early maladaptive schemas of women with obesity. The findings of this study can provide practical implications for the treatment of early maladaptive schemas in women with obesity through treatment based on the transtheoretical model.

Obesity is among significant public health problems globally that is one of the most critical risk factors for physicaland mental diseases. Early maladaptive schemas include psychological components that play essential roles in weight loss among overweight and obese women. The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of transcranial direct current stimulation on early maladaptive schemas of women with obesity.

The research method was semi-experimental with pre-test, post-test, and control group. The statistical population of this study consisted of all women with obesity who were referredto psychology clinics in Tehran in 2019. Sixty patients were selected by convenience sampling method and randomly divided into two groups of experimental and control, each including 30 participants. The experimental group received transcranial direct current stimulation intervention in 10 sessions. Before and after the intervention both groups completed the early maladaptive schema questionnaire. Data were analyzed by covariance test using SPSS software version 22.

The mean age of participants inthe experimental group was 32.7 (4.5) and in the control group 33.6 (4.9).The mean (SD) of early maladaptive schemas in the experimental group was 310.3(19.7) in the pre-test, which decreased to 234.1 (18.1) in post-test (P<0.001) and in the follow-up 233.9 (17.4). However, the mean (SD) of the control group in the pre-test was 310.9 (21.8), which reached 310.8 (20.2) in the post-test, which was not statistically significant and was 310.1 (20.8) in the follow-up.

The study showed that direct current electrical stimulation of the cranial wall improved the initial maladaptive schemas of obese women

This study aimed to predict the sexual performance women of Self-concept, self-efficacy and sexual awareness. To conduct this descriptive study, 500 women (40-24 years old) referred to health centers (2018) were selected by the available sampling method. The Female Sexual Function Index - FSFI (2000), and Multi-dimensional Sexual Self-Concept Questionnaire - MSSCQ (2013) were used to validate the data, and Pearson correlation coefficients, correlation variance, and regression coefficients were used to analyze the data. The findings showed that the components of sexual self-concept play a role in predicting women's sexual performance. According to the study, sexual beliefs as sexual self-concept play a predictive role in women's sexual performance and the most important predictor of sexual function is sexual awareness, sexual desire, self-blame in sexual problems, sexual self-efficacy, sexual courage, and management It's a sexual issue. According to the results of sexual anxiety, self-blame in sexual problems, fear of sex and sexual depression is inversely related to sexual function. Between sexual self-efficacy, sexual awareness, motivation to avoid high-risk sex, sexual desire, sexual courage and boldness, sexual optimism, sexual monitoring, sexual motivation, sexual management, sexual validity, sexual satisfaction, personal patterns Sex, prevention of sexual problems and internal control of sexual issues are directly related to sexual function.

Sexual issues are among the most important issues in married life in terms of importance, and adaptation in sexual relations and fit and balance in it is one of the most important causes of happiness and success in married life. The purpose of this study was to develop a structural model of sexual performance based on gender identity and sexual self-concept in women by BMI.

The research method was correlation using structural equation modeling. The statistical population studied in this study were women (40-24 years old) referring to health centers in Karaj in 1397. Among them, 500 people who met the inclusion criteria were selected by available sampling method. The research data were evaluated through female sexual function index, Rosen, gender identity in different cultures of Schertz et al. And Snellchr('39')s multidimensional sexual self-concept questionnaire. And analyzed.

Fitting indices showed that the model has a good fit (χ2 / df = 2.81, CFI = 0.92, RMSEA = 0.06). The results showed that the path of sexual identity, sexual self-concept and body mass index to sexual function is negative and significant (P <0.01). Also, the path of sexual identity to the body mass index is negative and significant and the path of sexual self-concept to the body mass index is positive and significant (P <0.01). In addition, the results indicated that body mass index did not mediate the relationship between sexual identity and sexual self-concept with sexual function in women (P <0.01). The findings also showed that sexual identity, sexual self-concept and body mass index explain 71.5% of the variance in sexual function.

According to the findings of this study, a personchr('39')s perception of their sexual or emotional desire toward others as gender identity and beliefs as a personchr('39')s sexual self-concept have a predictive role in womenchr('39')s sexual function. It is important to consider gender identity and sexual self-concept as essential factors in enhancing womenchr('39')s sexual function in counseling and treating women about womenchr('39')s body mass index.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the mediating role of self-care behaviors in explaining the relationship between personality type D and problem-solving styles with health-promoting lifestyle in coronary heart disease patients. For this purpose, 400 patients with coronary heart disease who referred to Tehran Cardiovascular Hospital during July to October of 2019 were selected by convenience sampling method and Walker's Health Lifestyle Questionnaire, The D-Denolt personality type questionnaire, Cassidy and Lang problem solving styles questionnaire, and self-care index in Rigel et al. Cardiovascular patients were answered and multiple regression was used to analyze the data. The results showed that type D personality has a direct effect on lifestyle through self-care. The results also showed that self-care plays a mediating role between problem-solving and health-promoting lifestyle. The results of the present study indicate the mediating role played by caring behaviors between personality type D and problem solving styles with health promoting lifestyle.

The purpose of this study was to determine the mediating role of body mass index in predicting sexual function based on women's gender identity.

By The research method was applied in terms of purpose and conditions of descriptive (non-experimental) nature, and the research design was structural equation correlation. The study population was women (40-40 years old) referred to Karaj health centers in 1977. Among them, 500 who met the criteria for the study were selected by the available sampling method. The research data were collected through Women's Sexual Performance Index-Rosen et al. (2000) and gender role identity questionnaire in different cultures-Schertz et al. (2008). Finally, data were analyzed in SPSS and AMOS software.

The results showed that sexual function had a positive and direct relationship with each of the variables of masculine and feminine gender identity. Is 0 (P <0.05). Body mass index had a direct effect on sexual function in women, and the regression coefficient of body mass index for height and weight was 0.56 and 0.48, respectively (P <0.05). Finally, the results showed that BMI has a mediating role in predicting sexual function based on sexual self-concept in women.

The subjective recognition of one's self as feminine or masculine gender identity, that is, the image that one has in one's own identity, plays a predictive role in women's sexual function. It is necessary to consider gender identity as an essential factor in enhancing women's sexual function in counseling and psychotherapy, recognizing women's BMI.
