The rights of criminal prisoners are important issues that have always been the subject of debate. One of the basic challenges of prisoners' rights is the amount and scope of these rights, which needs to be discussed. Based on this, the purpose of this article is the position of the rights of criminal prisoners in the scope of Islamic decent governance. This article is descriptive and analytical, and the library method was used to investigate the mentioned topic. The findings indicate that good governance by using principles and indicators such as divine education and training, knowledge and piety and piety of the rulers, realization of installments and justice, fairness in judgment. It acts as a supplement to the principles governing the rights of the imprisoned person, and the crystallization of their rights will make them more objective and accessible. The result is that the realization of the rights of criminal prisoners in the scope of decent Islamic governance requires special attention to the private sector and civil society as important elements of decent governance; Because despite the fact that most of the institutions and organizations that implement and monitor the rights of imprisoned people are governmental, the discussion of the rights of imprisoned people has been challenged both from the individual aspect and from the aspect of the world community's view of the human rights situation.

The supervision of criminals and the way of classifying prisoners are among the challenging categories in the criminal policy of the Iranian penal system, which by entering the legal literature and also being affected by the modern perspectives of criminology, a new approach is proposed. This question is raised as to how Iran’s criminal policy has been in the implementation of prison sentences and the classification of prisoners and how it is evaluated according to the regulations of the judiciary. In this regard, in line with the policy of prisons and the classification of prisoners, the judiciary has developed different guidelines and regulations, and the legislator has taken steps in this way by approving the regulations on the segregation and classification of prisoners. He has been involved in the supervision of criminals. These supervisions are applied with the aim of protecting the society against the crimes of dangerous criminals and can become the basis for legal challenges. Criminologists believe that if the classification of prisoners is based on the theory of rehabilitation, it can provide prison security by reducing violence, and through the access of prisoners to rehabilitation programs, it can achieve the refinement of criminals and solve the challenge of the inflation of the criminal population. The issue of separating and classifying prisoners from a conceptual point of view, due to the lack of clear boundaries with similar concepts; In terms of definition, due to the lack of legal standards and examples, the crime faces many shortcomings from a legal and executive point of view. In this research, while explaining the legal and legal challenges, the pathology of segregation and classification of prisoners is considered.

The health of prisoners is the concern of the legal systems of different countries around the world, and in this regard, most of the countries have dedicated articles to the health of prisoners in their domestic laws. The issue of health becomes doubly important when it comes to prisoners. The reason for this importance goes back to the elements of the right to health in addition to the discussed location. In most countries, existing standards regarding the status of prisoners' rights; are low and in some cases terrifying. In the international dimension of prisoners' health, it has been emphasized both in general international documents and in specific international documents. The purpose of the current research is a comparative study of "enhancement of prisoners' right to health in Iran's internal laws and international documents"; the data collection was done by the method of note-taking and reference to library resources. The main question of the research is, what challenges are there in the laws in the way of improving the health of prisoners? And what are the differences and similarities between Iran's domestic laws and international documents?

Any high-risk behavior can cause serious and sometimes irreparable harm to the individual and family. High-risk behavior often occurs in an emotionally-charged context, and executive functions and emotion regulation play important roles in risk-related decision making. Therefore, identifying the factors that facilitate and sustain risky behaviors in different groups is an inevitable necessity.

The aim of this study was to investigate the structural relationship between executive functions and high-risk behaviors in prisoners considering the mediating role of emotion regulation strategies.

The present study is descriptive and correlational, conducted by structural equation modeling method. The statistical population of this study is all prisoners in Shiraz city. The sample consisted of 409 prisoners in Shiraz who were selected by purposive sampling. Data were collected using Cognitive Abilities Questionnaire (Nejati 2013), Emotion Regulation Strategies (Garnefski et al., 2001), and Youth Risk Behaviors Scale (Snow et al., 2019). To evaluate the proposed model, structural equation modeling was used using AMOS version 24 and SPSS 27.

The results of correlation coefficient showed that there is a negative relationship between executive functions and adaptive emotion regulation strategies with risky behaviors (P< 0.05). Also, there is a positive and significant relationship between maladaptive emotion regulation strategies and risky behaviors (P< 0.05). The findings indicate that the proposed model is fitted with the data. The results of the structural model showed that 19% of the variance of adaptive strategies and 25% of variance of maladaptive strategies is explained by executive functions and 45% of variance of risky behaviors is explained by executive functions and adaptive and maladaptive strategies of emotion regulation.

It can be concluded that risky behaviors are affected by cognitive and emotional functions and cognitive emotion regulation strategies have a mediating role in this regard, which requires psychological interventions. Our results suggest that treatment for high-risk behavior may be more effective with a nuanced approach that does not conflate high impulsivity necessarily with high-risk behavior tendencies.

Success in the reintegration of prisoners into society is dependent on various factors, and recent research in this field has explored different aspects. One overlooked dimension, until now, by criminologists is financial literacy and its relationship with crime recidivism rates and return to prison. The primary hypothesis of this research is that financial literacy, as a crucial economic concept, is inversely related to the rate of crime recidivism. Individuals with better financial literacy are capable of managing wealth effectively and improving their economic status, potentially reducing the likelihood of committing crimes, especially those related to economic needs. Analysis of variance and Pearson correlation coefficient were employed to examine the main and sub-hypotheses. The research utilized the Shapiro-Wilk test on a community sample, and all stages were executed using SPSS24 software. The findings indicate a positive and significant relationship between examined variables, including education level, age, marital status, and financial literacy. Furthermore, the results demonstrate an inverse relationship between financial literacy and the rate of crime recidivism and return to prison. The study also reveals that criminals involved in fraud have higher levels of financial literacy compared to thieves. It appears that providing financial and economic literacy education alongside vocational skills training constitutes a significant portion of effective rehabilitation programs. This education equips prisoners with the necessary skills for managing limited financial resources and prevents them from falling into immediate hardships upon release.

Societies have always been trying to analyze delinquency with the aim of reducing the crime rate in society. The purpose of this research was to determine the effectiveness of self-talk management training based on criminal thoughts in the attitude towards delinquency and negative spontaneous thoughts of prisoners.

The present study was a semi-test with pre-test-post-test and certificate group. The statistical population consisted of all male prisoners of Ardakan prison, which, using available sampling method, selected 30 people as a sample and was randomly replaced in two groups (experiments and witnesses). Both groups responded to attitude questionnaires (2010) and Hollan and Kendall (1980). The reliability of an attitude to delinquency for positive attitudes to delinquency behaviors of 0.71 and for negative attitudes to 0.77 delinquency behaviors has been reported and its content validity has been reviewed and confirmed. Alpha Cronbach's alpha Questionnaire is 0.97 and its validity has also been confirmed. Criminal thought management tutorials were taught to the members of the group at 8 sessions. But the certificate group did not receive any intervention during this period. In the end, the data were analyzed by the multiplicity of covariance analysis.

The Quurians Analysis Test showed that after receiving self -management -based self -management training, experimental group participants' scores in the post -test phase, decrease in positive attitudes to delinquency and negative thoughts and in negative attitudes toward delinquency have increased significantly Was. Whereas in the testimony group there was no significant change in the post -test phase compared to the pre -test phase. In other words, the values of F showed that self -management training based on criminal thoughts on reducing positive attitudes to delinquency (F = 51/18) and negative self -thoughts (F = 39/70) and increased negative attitudes to delinquency (92/ 38 = f) and the research hypotheses were confirmed (P <0.05).

self-talk management training can be used as one of the effective interventions to reduce crime rates in prisoners. Also, if the content of the teachings provided to prisoners is considered a criminal -based self -management, it can be expected that the prisoners' willingness to be reduced and one of the goals of the Prisons Organization, which is the reform of the prisoners, will be achieved.

Familiarity with the requirements of national production boom is one of the strong recommendations of recent years in Iran and a significant strategy to improve the economic situation of society. Manpower is one of the most effective employment tools in order to boost production.This study seeks to investigate the benefits of investing in prisoners' jobs as a manpower under the control of the government.    Using descriptive-analytical method and reviewing documents, books, articles and Internet resources, seeks to provide solutions to boost national production of prisoners' jobs. Improving the economic situation of the society requires proper investment and productivity of human resources. Career guidance of prisoners in order to continue their employment, in addition to preventing recidivism, is a good way to help create jobs and value the prosperity of national production in terms of quality and quantity. The study of the economic aspects of the issue requires the entry and efforts of those involved in the employment of prisoners and the support of the government with a new approach to allocating sustainable jobs to detainees.He considers the establishment of job opportunity management centers and the recruitment of entrepreneurs in this field as a considerable strategy for the prosperity of national production

One of the strong tendencies in human beings is "authoritarianism" or "power-seeking" and includes people who want to dominate others in their social relations; They want to be at the top of the family power pyramid, and when they are at a higher level, they seek to dominate their subordinates. Different situations and states affect authoritarianism. One of the places where such behaviors are abundant is the prison.

The aim of this study was to predict the degree of authoritarianism of clients in Shiraz Central Prison based on age, gender and marital status.

This study was a descriptive correlational study. For this purpose, among the central prisoners of Shiraz, 374 people were selected by simple random sampling. Data were collected through the Skinner et al.’s (2005) authoritarianism in the family questionnaire and the Skinner et al.’s (2005) parenting style questionnaire. Then, the data were analyzed using univariate t-test, correlation coefficient and one-way analysis of variance with SPSS software.

The results showed that the mean score of the client’s authoritarianism variable was 3.57, which is higher than the cut-off point 3 (mean scale) and was significance level of p <0.01; This indicates the high level of authoritarianism of the clients. There is a negative and significant relationship between age and authoritarian behavior of clients in Shiraz Central Prison at significance level of p<0.01. It can also be said that men with an average authoritarianism scale of 3.136 have more authoritarian behavior towards women and finally there is a significant difference between clients' authoritarianism and their marital status (being a divorce-child, divorced and normal group). Which indicates that high authoritarian behavior in the children from divorced families was at the level of p<0.001.

It seems that the factor of imprisonment, age, gender and family status play an effective role in the degree of authoritarianism. However, attention to such factors in the degree of authoritarianism can be considered by researchers in more examples and different cultures for managing authoritarian behavior.

Research shows that mental disorders are highly prevalent in prisoners and psychological interventions can help them to improve their psychological health. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on changing automatic thinking and self-criticism to create a healthy personality. ACT therapy focuses on increasing psychological flexibility, which is the ability to attend to experiences in the present moment without judgment, and in reality therapy emphasizes people's responsibility. However, comparative research on these three treatments in prisoners has received less attention.

The purpose of the research was to compare the efficacy of group therapy based on acceptance and commitment (ACT; Hayes, Strosahl, & Wilson, 1999), cognitive-behavioral therapy (Beck et al., 1979), and reality therapy (Glasser, 1965) on the symptoms of mental disorders in male prisoners of Isfahan Central Prison.

The present research was a semi-experimental type of pre-test, post-test and follow-up with a control group. The statistical population included all male prisoners of Isfahan Central Prison, from among whom 120 were selected based on systematic random sampling and were placed in experimental and control groups (per group n=30). Before and after the treatment and also during the follow-up period, the subjects completed the checklist of symptoms of mental disorders (SCL-90) by Dragotis et al. (1999). Acceptance and commitment (Hayes, Strosahl & Wilson, 1999), cognitive-behavioral therapy (Beck et al., 1979), and reality therapy (Glasser, 1965) were conducted separately in 12 sessions and the control group was placed on the waiting list. In order to analyze the data, analysis of variance with repeated measurements was used.

The results of showed the effectiveness of all three treatment models in improving the symptoms of obsessive-compulsive disorder, interpersonal sensitivity, phobic anxiety, paranoid ideation, and psychoticism (p<0.05). According to the results of the follow-up test, there was a significant difference in the research variables between the three treatment groups and CBT on the symptoms of mental disorders has been significantly more effective than reality therapy and ACT (p<0.05)

The results of the research showed that acceptance and commitment therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy and reality therapy improved the psychological health of male prisoners and CBT was superior.

One of the harms of imprisonment, especially when the head of the family is sentenced to imprisonment, is the imposition of economic problems on families. In this paper, an attempt has been made to investigate the effect of empowerment of prisoners and its effect on the economy from a jurisprudential point of view.

The present paper is descriptive-analytical and the library method is used.

Ethical considerations: 

In this paper, the originality of the texts, honesty, and trustworthiness have been observed.

Empowerment of prisoners is one of the mechanisms of rehabilitation and correction of prisoners, which includes various programs such as education, employment, and vocational training. Employment and vocational training, apart from their effect on prevention of repeating the crime, can help improve the economic status and livelihood of prisoners' families, both during and after their imprisonment. The jurisprudential basis of empowering prisoners in order to protect their families is the "Principle of Vezr", which implies the individuality of punishments and criminal responsibility. According to this principle, the punishment is only for the perpetrator.

Empowerment of prisoners, especially their employment, is one of the important issues of punishment for prisoners, which requires more attention from an economic perspective. Employment and vocational training of prisoners can be achieved in the context of a corrective approach and, of course, an economic view of punishment and imprisonment.

Imprisonment is a difficult and stressful experience for both the prisoner and his family, especially their wives; the long separation of prisoners from society and family leads to many negative consequences in their spouses. This study aimed to investigating the effectiveness of an intervention based on family re-integration on resilience, intimacy and marital satisfaction of wives of prisoners who are nearby to be released.

This was a semi-experimental study that conducted a pre-test post-test design with a control group. 30 spouses of prisoners among the families supported by Ardakan Prisoners' Support Association were randomly selected as a sample and randomly assigned to experimental and control groups. The experimental group received 12 sessions of intervention based on family re-integration, while the control group did not receive any intervention. The participants of both groups answered the resilience questionnaires (Connor & Davidson, 2003), intimacy scale (Bagaroozi, 2001) and marital satisfaction questionnaire (Olson, 1998) before and after intervention sessions. Data were analyzed using multiway analysis of covariance (MANCOVA) via SPSS software.Findings and

The results showed that in the experimental group, as compared to control group, the intervention based on family re-integrations led to a significant increase in the resilience, intimacy and marital satisfaction of the prisoners' wives (p<.01). This finding shows that before the release of male prisoners, the use of family re-integrations interventions can lead to improvement of resilience, intimacy and marital satisfaction of their wives.

There are antisocial behaviors in any society, and delinquent people and antisocial personalities have a wide range of harmful behaviors, including breaking the law, violating the rights of others, aggression (O'Connell, 2023: 5), defiant in front of official authorities., disruption of social order (Nasaescu, & et al., 2020: 8), damage to public property and theft that lead to their imprisonment (Mahdiani, Farzadi and Faramarzi, 2018: 3). Antisocial behavior includes a series of crimes that occur at a certain time and place (Tarkarani, Moradinejhad and Roshanpoor, 2020: 2) and is observed at different ages.Several studies have been undertaken in the area of establishing intervention programs and examining their efficacy in reducing antisocial behaviors (Damavandian, 2022: 6). Teaching self-compassion is one of these strategies (Afshani and Abou'ee, 2019: 2). Based on Neff & Germer (2017), self-compassion is being kind to oneself, experiencing and being affected by the suffering of others, and it is an effective factor in reducing the occurrence of harmful behaviors (Wu & Zhang, 2023: 7). the riverFurthermore, in this context, the role of spirituality and spiritual education should not be neglected. Beliefs and religious beliefs were extremely important at all times (Hedayati Dana, Saberi and Nasrollahi, 2022: 3). Spirituality is one of the capabilities of humans that provides them with ways to cope and problem-solving strategies (Mousavi et al., 2022: 4). The positive effect of spiritual therapy on psychological well-being (Frogosa, 2022: 20), anger reduction (Muhammad, Sakari & Omar, 2022: 3), drug addiction treatment (Abidin, 2022: 5), psychosocial adaptation (Toledo, Ochoa & Farias, 2021: 3 and 4) is specified.The goal of the current study is to compare the efficacy of spiritual therapy and self-compassion training on the antisocial behavior of prisoners in light of the aforementioned explanations. It appears that self-compassion training and spiritual therapy can be used as intervention methods to reduce the incidence of antisocial behaviors.   

The current research is a semi-experimental type with a pre-test-post-test design with a control group. The statistical population of this research was formed by all prisoners of Birjand city in the first six months of 1400. The number of sample members in this research was made up of 60 male prisoners who were willing to cooperate which had the criteria to enter the research. This number was selected by available sampling and randomly divided into three groups, two experimental groups (20 people), and a control group (20 people). To measure antisocial tendencies, the scale of antisocial behavior of Khademi prisoners (2013) was used, which contains 15 items about antisocial behavior, which was prepared based on the diagnostic criteria of DSM-IV-TR2. This scale is scored on a 4-point Likert scale from never observed (0) to frequently observed (3). While the other experimental group underwent spirituality-therapy with revision (Galanter & Siegel, 2009: 28) in 12 90-minute sessions, the experimental group underwent training based on Gilbert's (2009) package for compassion-therapy, while the control group received no training in accordance with the research's hypotheses and methodology. The data was analyzed using SPSS version 23 statistical software. In the descriptive part, descriptive statistics (frequency, percentage, mean and standard deviation) were used, and in the analytical part, mixed variance analysis test (multivariate covariance) was used to check the research hypotheses. 

Based on the nature of the research, the average and standard deviation of the scores of the components of antisocial tendencies in two stages of measurement are separately given for the experimental and control groups, were studied.To study the effectiveness of spiritual therapy and self-compassion training on antisocial tendencies, univariate covariance analysis was used. Checking a few statistical presumptions is important before running this test. The interaction effect of the group and the pre-test, which was 3043.35 for the sum of squares with three degrees of freedom and the F value was 2.83 at a significance level of 0.08, was the cause of changes in the regression line slope test. The results of the analysis of statistical assumptions showed that the test of the equality of the slope of the regression line, and the precondition of the equality of variances (using Levine's test) are the same for the experimental and control groups (the interaction between the experimental conditions and the covariance variable is not significant) and the use of covariance analysis is unimpeded (p<0.05).The major impact of spiritual therapy and self-compassion training on antisocial behavior inclinations in the post-test is substantial, according to the ANCOVA findings, which exclude the influence of pre-test antisocial tendencies scores as a covariate. The observed difference among the average scores of antisocial tendencies of the participants of the experimental-control groups based on the group membership in the post-test stage is significant with 95% confidence (P<0.05). The intervention rate is 0.45. The adjusted averages are presented in the table, that is, the effect of the pre-test variable was statistically removed.The adjusted averages show that the average score of antisocial tendencies of experimental groups is more reduced compared to the control group. 

The present study was conducted with the aim of surveying and comparing the effectiveness of spiritual therapy, and self-compassion training on the antisocial behaviors of prisoners in Birjand city. The study's findings demonstrate that spiritual and self-compassion-based therapies may both effectively lower the propensity and prevalence of antisocial conduct among convicts. Based on this, the results of the present study, while providing a basis for conducting extensive research on treatments based on spirituality, and self-compassion, help psychotherapists and counselors use these treatment approaches in similar cases to reduce the incidence of behaviors destructive and abnormal use in their clients. Another suggestion of the current research is that in future researches, the community of female prisoners should be used for the effectiveness of mentioned treatments and a comparison of the effectiveness of the treatments in two groups of women and men should be presented. In addition, by using spiritual therapy and self-compassion-based techniques until they are freed from jail, helpers and counselors who provide counseling services to inmates may lower delinquent and antisocial ideas in prisoners. Additionally, it is important to reduce the frequency of these activities among convicts. therapy, therapy based on self-compassion, antisocial behaviors, prisoners.

Since the history of human life has always been associated with wars and conflicts, both domestic and international, and during the wars there have been many killings, many of which were unjust, in this study we seek to protect the rights of non-combatants. Examine the fighters during the conflict from the perspective of Islamic humanitarian law. Given the Islamic approach to respecting the rights of non-combatants and the distinction between them and combatants, it is important to distinguish between the two. Because the principles of humanitarian law have a long history in Islamic law, before being formulated in international instruments such as the Hague and Geneva Conventions of 1949. This issue can be seen in the verses of the Holy Quran and the biography of the Holy Prophet (PBUH) and the pure Imams. Studies show the importance of the rights of all human beings, including combatants and non-combatants, and the inherent dignity of individuals from the perspective of Islam

As a necessity in any society, the pecuniary interest is certain and inviolable. In addition to the emphasis of the Holy Law on supporting disabled and disabled people who do not have the ability to protect their property and know the interests of their affairs; Intellectuals, social reformers and legal scholars are also aware of the importance of the issue in every society and pay special attention to the proper implementation of protection for the imprisoned. Due to the fact that the management of the property and interests of minors, madmen, non-reshid persons, etc. has different aspects and includes many examples. Sometimes it happens, however, guardians, legal guardians, judicial authorities involved in financial affairs, etc., in financial and non-financial affairs, come across cases where two interests are placed against each other, to determine which of the conflicting matters From the Shari'a, moral and legal point of view, it is against financial gain; There is no specific rule. In this regard, there are shortcomings and abridgements of the laws, and the decisions of guardians, guardians or legal guardians may be contradictory in different cases, which is not compatible with justice. In this research, we will analyze the issue by examining the "expediency of prisoners in Quranic studies and law".

In crime analysis, the position of the concept of culture along with various sociological and psychological concepts, theories and approaches has emerged in the form of cultural criminology. This article has been compiled with the aim of achieving the structure of mental-perceptual formulation of violent crime prisoners from the experience of belonging to the lot game subculture. This research has tried to identify the lived experiences of the Latas with the paradigm of interpretiveism and using the phenomenological method. For this purpose, 16 prisoners of violent crimes were interviewed in Mazandaran prisons. The analysis of the texts obtained from the interviews was done through the discourse analysis method of James Paul J. Remarkable results show that the formation of the identity of criminals belonging to the subculture of the game has been formed by showing voluntary austerity, proud acceptance of hot and stigmatized labels, paradoxical mentality of despair and salvation for the future, empathy and companionship with the destiny of classmates. Is

Today, non-criminal strategies and situational prevention are of special importance in crime prevention. Exercise can be considered as a way to prevent crime. The purpose of this study is the relationship between sports and social health with crime prevention in prisoners in Golestan province.

This is an applied research that was done by descriptive survey method. The statistical population of the study consisted of 500 prisoners aged 20 to 35 years in Golestan province. The sample size was 217 using Morgan table with a simple random method. The research tool was a researcher-made questionnaire whose face validity and content of the questionnaire were confirmed by experts and specialists. The reliability of the questionnaire was calculated using Cronbach's alpha (0.83).

The results showed that the physical-mental condition and social health of general athlete prisoners is much better than championship-professional sports prisoners. Another result of the study showed that the better the physical-mental health and social health of athlete prisoners, the more crime prevention will be done. Prisoners of public athletes also have better conditions than athletes of championship-professional sports in crime prevention.

Exercise has an effective role in the motivation and treatment of physical and mental diseases and the acquisition of social health, so one of the best ways to guide the incompatible person in the direction of construction is to involve the person in motor and sports activities.

Crime and delinquency are considered important in society because the criminal spends his energy on committing crime and delinquency instead of education, employment and other things that are effective for the society. This issue has occupied the public opinion. And in all societies, there is an effort to prevent people from committing crimes by knowing the factors. Also, crime is a natural phenomenon in society and society's responses to crime are studied in criminology and criminology. One of the reasons for a person's delinquency and his subsequent sentencing to prison is the deficiencies in his socialization process in the family. Therefore, the purpose of sentencing the accused to prison is not because of the suffering and torment on him, but to ensure the peace and security of the society. Also, prison causes a person to stay away from family and society, and in addition, they often look at him as a criminal, which sometimes causes the collapse of the family unit. As we can see, today the punishment of prison, which was once one of the honors of mankind, has turned into a breeding ground for delinquency and its correctional and rehabilitation function has failed. For this reason, it has been criticized by lawyers and criminal systems. In this research, we have tried to investigate the criminology of prisoners' delinquency, and the research method used in this research is using the library method and data collection.

Many studies have examined the effectiveness of problem solving on social problem solving among different samples, but no study that has examined interpersonal problem solving on social problem solving of women prisoners has not been conducted in Iran.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of interpersonal problem solving on the social problem of women prisoners.

The research design was a pretest-post test design with a control group. The statistical population of this study includes all young female offenders imprisoned in Kermanshah central prison that they were serving their sentences in 2019. In this study 30 young women were imprisoned by the available sampling meted were selected and randomly divided into two experimental (15n) and control (15n) groups. Then 10 two-hour sessions were held every week for two interpersonal problem -solving workshops for the experimental group. After completing the post -test training problem it was implemented in both experimental and control groups. To gather information from the social problem solving questionnaires of Desorila et al (2004). Then the research data were analyzed by multivariate analysis of covariance.

Results According to the participants, in two stages of pre-test-post-test showed that compared to the control group in the experimental group, between pre-test-post-test scores in all subscales of social problem solving including positive orientation, negative orientation, logical style and impulsivity style / carelessness and avoidance style was a difference.

Therefore, interpersonal problem-solving training can be used as a corrective and preventive intervention program to increase the social problem-solving of young women prisoners

The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of group reality therapy with person-centered group therapy on the prisoners’ emotional intelligence and their meaning of life.

This study was a quasi-experimental study with pre-test, post-test and 3-month follow-up assessments. The statistical population was all prisoners in the counseling unit of Mashhad prison. The sampling method was purposeful and a total of 45 prisoners, who met the inclusion criteria, were selected and randomly divided into three groups: reality therapy, person-centered therapy and control group. Each of the experimental groups received 24 sessions of treatment (two sessions per week) and the control group did not receive any intervention. Participants answered the questionnaires of emotional intelligence and meaning in life in three stages.

The results showed that both reality therapy and person-centered groups led to a significant increase in emotional intelligence and meaningful life, compared to the control group. It was also found that reality therapy is more effective in increasing the meaning of prisoners' lives, compared to person-centered treatment. However, the results showed no significant difference in the effectiveness of two interventions on the prisoners’ emotional intelligence. These results remained unchanged in the follow-up stage.

The most important goal of the criminal justice system is to respond to the phenomenon of the crime is to rehabilitate criminals to return to society happily. Therefore it is very important to study current status of psychosocial health education in the fields of education of correctional, educational, medical and judicial services to prisoners and its comparison with the desired situation in order to promote the health of prisoners.The present study according to the purpose is applied, the way it is done is causal-comparative, and quantitative data were collected using a researcher-made questionnaire. The statistical population includes all staff of Kermanshah Central Prison, which numbered 385 people, using simple random sampling, 100 of them were selected as the sample.The results showed that the current status of psychosocial health education to prisoners in the subscales of judicial is equal to 38%, medicine 30.9%, educational 15.5% and correction 15.5%, and only 60% of the participants were satisfied with the current state of psychosocial health education to prisoners. there was a significant difference in correctional and educational subscales, but no significant difference in medical and judicial subscales.There was a difference between the current situation and the desired situation of mental and social health education of prisoners. Therefore, to reduce the distance between the current state of mental health education and the desired situation of prisoners, it is necessary changing and strengthening the content and implementation of health-oriented education programs based on the psycho-social needs of prisoners.
