The formulation of emotion-focused and compassion-focused behavioral intervention therapy can explain the relationship between the dimensions of problems and the health promotion of patients with headache symptoms and present the first combined treatment for emotional problems and the sedation of the nervous system to investigate and comprehensively prevent the symptoms of primary headaches.

This was a quasi-experimental study with a pretest, posttest, and follow-up with a control group. The sample consisted of 45 patients with primary headache symptoms who were referred to the neurology clinic of Khatam Al-Anbia Hospital in Tehran City, Iran. They were selected by the purposive sampling method and randomly divided into two experimental groups and a control group (15 people in each group). The experimental groups underwent a combination of compassion-based emotion therapy (ten 60-min sessions) and compassion-focused treatment (eight 60-min sessions). The control group received no intervention. After collecting the data, they were entered into the SPSS software, version 24. Descriptive statistical indices (mean and standard deviation) and statistical inference (repeated measures analysis of variance and the Bonferroni post hoc test) were used to analyze the data.

The findings showed that the quality of life variable is not significant because of the non-compliance with the spheric default in the intragroup effect and time factor (F = 3.47, df = 1.15, and P < 0.05); however, the interaction of the factor of time and group (F = 8.25, df = 2.31, and P < 0.01) shows a significant difference (P < 0.01) in the quality of life variable between pretest, posttest, and follow-up and time interaction with the group (between the three groups).

Compassion-based emotion-based combination therapy packages can help control the current situation and subsequent decisions of patients in the face of the signs and symptoms of early headaches by creating a calm mental environment and relieving any pressure or stress. Therefore, compassion-based emotion-based combination therapy is a treatment option that can be used to increase the quality of life of people with primary headaches.

Primary headache, as one of the most pervasive pain disorders, has drawn attention to the welfare problems of patients with primary headache symptoms, especially regarding sleep quality and irrational beliefs. This study was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of emotion-focused therapy and compassion-focused therapies on sleep quality and irrational beliefs in patients with primary headache symptoms.

This quasi-experimental study was conducted with a pretest-posttest control group design. The sample consisted of 45 patients with primary headache symptoms referring to the neurology clinic of Khatam Al-Anbia Hospital in Tehran, Iran. The samples were selected using the purposive sampling method and randomly divided into two experimental groups and one control group (n=15 each). The experimental groups underwent emotion-focused and compassion-focused therapies.

The results showed that there was a significant difference between research groups in the post-test stage regarding sleep quality (F=17.04, df=2, and P<0.01) and irrational beliefs (F=77.27, df=2, and P<0.01). The results of the Bonferroni post hoc test showed that emotion-focused and compassion-focused therapies had a significant effect on sleep quality (P<0.01) and irrational beliefs (P<0.01).

Based on the results, emotion-focused and compassion-focused therapies were two appropriate treatments to increase sleep quality and reduce irrational beliefs among patients with primary headache symptoms. Patients, by participating in group sessions of these two therapies, developed adaptive and positive coping strategies to control attacks and improve headache symptoms as much as possible.

Globally, the symptoms of primary headache cause more psychological disabilities than other neurological problems. One of the most common psychological disabilities in patients with primary headache symptoms is perfectionism and intolerance of uncertainty. The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of Compassionate emotion-based integrated therapy with compassion-based therapy on perfectionism and intolerance of uncertainty in patients with primary headache symptoms.

The study was a quasi-experimental study with pre-test, post-test and follow-up with a control group. The sample consisted of 45 patients with primary headache symptoms referred to the neurology clinic of Khatam Al-Anbia Hospital in Tehran who were selected by purposive sampling method and randomly divided into two experimental groups and a control group (15 people in each group). The experimental groups underwent a Compassionate emotion-based integrated therapy (10 sessions of 60 minutes) and compassion-based therapy (8 sessions of 60 minutes). Data were analyzed using SPSS software version 24 and repeated measures analysis of variance test.

The results showed that in the variable of perfectionism due to the non-observance of the spheric default in the intra group effect section and in the time factor (F = 6/33, df = 1/001 and p <0/05) and the time factor interaction and Group (F = 5/23, df = 2/003 and p <0/01) and uncertainty intolerance due to non-observance of spheric default in intra group effect and time factor (F = 134.86) , df = 1.08 and p <0/01) and time and group factor interaction (F = 30/72, df = 2/17 and p <0/01) between pre-test, post-test and There was a significant difference (p <0/01) with time tracking and interaction with the group (three research groups). Based on the results, Compassionate emotion-based integrated therapy, a treatment that can be used to reduce intolerance in people with primary headache, and a Compassionate emotion-based integrated therapy and compassion-based therapy to reduce patients' perfectionism to the same extent. Suitable for early headache symptoms.

The architectural environment as a basis factor for human activities has profound effects on its mental health. One of the architectural environments that is stressful is a hospital. Stress in the hospital with negative consequences that delay patient recovery. One of the groups of patients who are more vulnerable in this case are children. Since children stay at hospital with a lot of concern, an interior design with appropriate colors can show the hospital space less formal and provide a suitable and friendly environment for them. This condition can act as an emotional change. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of light and color on decreasing childrenchr('39')s stress and speeding up their recovery in therapeutic settings.

The research method of this paper was descriptive approach and information was collected through library studies and sample case observations. The research tool was interviewed and it should be noted that the phenomenological method was used in the qualitative way. The samples were from "Omid Isfahan Hospital" (Isfahan province, center of Iran) and the participantschr('39') community included two groups of children and their parents. The children included 12 girls and 8 boys, a total of 20 sick children and their parents. Prior to conducting interviews, the participants in the research were assured enough that, their information would remain confidential. Interviews were conducted to gather information from parents, and questions about hospital space, spatial defects, and child reactions to the hospital were asked to address the problems, such as cold and airlessness of the spaces and it relations to increase the children stress. In the next video interview with children, there were pictures of external facades, lobby spaces, corridors, admissions and hospitalization rooms of several health centers for children, and children were asked to give their mentality and feelings to the images of the expression 

During an interview with parents, they stated that their children were afraid to enter the hospital when they arrived at the hospital. Some other parents stated that their children were stressed when they were in the corridor due to long duration, inappropriate light and color, and finally they refused to go to the corridors. They also pointed out that the furniture in the lobby and the waiting room was not commensurate with the size of the child, and there was also no room for play and entertainment, which would exacerbate the childrenchr('39')s tiredness during the waiting. The findings of the childrenchr('39')s video interview showed that they were more interested in happy colors and natural light. Seeing the images of the hospitalchr('39')s exterior, they were welcomed with cheerful shapes and curved shapes as well as good night lighting. In conjunction with the lobby and the waiting room, they preferred the atrium spaces that led enough natural light into the building. Childrenchr('39')s passion was more receptive to childrenchr('39')s designs and colors. The largest selection of children was the corridors that had wall paintings, enough light, and defeat or indentations along their path. The children preferred the inpatient rooms that had relaxing colors and multiple windows with adequate natural light because they inspired a sentimental, intimate home–like atmosphere.

It should be considered in the design of childrenchr('39')s hospitals. Hospital is able to create favorable conditions, tailor–made design for children and at the same time, it is applied, as well as the improvement of the quality of space, to support children who are in poor mental conditions with fear and stress. Two factors of color and light were among the factors that enhance the quality of space, and the coordination of these two factors with other hospital architectures had a significant effect on reducing the stress of children and their mental relaxation. As a result, Omid Isfahan Hospital did not have such spatial quality and was far from universal standards.
