In addition to causing psychological problems, traumatic events can also bring positive changes. Therefore, in order to investigate the significant difference in people's reactions to traumatic life experiences, it is very important to know the important psychological mechanisms; therefore, the present study was conducted with the aim of investigating the role of resilience, mentalization and alexia in predicting the symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder and post-traumatic growth in in COVID-19 Survivors.

The method of this research is descriptive-correlation. The statistical population of this research included people who survived the corona disease in Kermanshah city. For this purpose, 380 of these people were selected by convenience sampling method and answered the post-traumatic growth questionnaire (PTGI), PCL-C questionnaire, resilience scale, Reflective Functioning Questionnaire and Toronto alexithymia Scale.

The results showed that there is a negative and significant relationship between resilience, the confidence component of mentalization and post-traumatic stress disorder (P<0.01). There is a positive and significant relationship between resilience, the confidence component of mentalization and post-traumatic growth (P<0.01). There is a positive and significant relationship between Alexithymia and post-traumatic stress disorder (P<0.01). There is a negative and significant relationship between Alexithymia and post-traumatic growth (P<0.01). The results of multiple regression analysis also revealed that 683.9% of the variance of post-traumatic disorder and 74.8% of the variance of post-traumatic growth are explained by resilience, mentalization and Alexithymia.

The results of the research showed that it is important to focus on two dimensions of negative and positive reactions to the corona disease and the role of important mechanisms involved in it. In other words, the findings showed that resilience, mentalization and alexithymia can predict symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder and post-traumatic growth in in COVID-19 Survivors

Nursing is a stressful job and is associated with various behavioral and psychological consequences; Therefore, The present study was conducted with the aim of investigating the role of attachment, mentalization and cognitive emotion regulation in predicting the tendency to use substance in nurses.

The method of this study was descriptive-correlation. The research community consisted of all nurses in the emergency department of hospitals and medical centers in Shiraz. In this study, 160 people were selected through convenience sampling and answered the Adult Attachment Inventory (1987), reflective activity questionnaire (2016), Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (2001), and Iranian Addiction Potential Scale (2008). The collected data were analyzed using Pearson's correlation coefficient and multivariate regression analysis in SPSS-24 software.

The results showed that there is a negative and significant correlation between the secure attachment style (r = -0.175, p < 0.05), the confidence component of mentalization (r = - 0.187, p < 0.05), and the adaptive cognitive emotion regulation (r = -0.564, p < 0.01) with the tendency to use substance in nurses. There is a positive and significant correlation between the insecure attachment style (r=0.351, p<0.01), the uncertainty component of mentalization (r=0.242, p<0.01) and the maladaptive cognitive emotion regulation (r=0.348, p<0.01) with the tendency to use substance in nurses. The results of multiple regression analysis also revealed that 48.7% of the variance of tendency to use substance is explained by attachment, mentalization and cognitive emotion regulation.

The result of the research shows the significant role of attachment styles, mentalization and cognitive emotion regulation in predicting the tendency to use drugs in nurses, which can help to recognize and improve the factors and motivations of nurses who have a tendency to use substance.
