The present study was conducted to determine the effectiveness of acceptance and commitment-based therapy on emotional instability and self-injurious behaviors of people with borderline personality disorder and substance abuse. This research was a semi-experimental study with the pre-test-post-test method and a control group. the statistical population was all addicts living in three addiction treatment camps in Tabriz and Ahar in the spring of 2021. First, Milon's multi-axis questionnaire was administered and 30 people who had a score higher than 85 for borderline personality disorder were purposefully selected as the research sample and randomly assigned to the experimental and control groups. The data collection tool was Milon's MCMI-III Multiaxial Questionnaire (Milon, 1987), SHI self-injurious behaviors questionnaire (Sanson et al., 1998), and EIS emotional instability scale (Malachich and Goldberg, 2007). The experimental group received two ACT therapy sessions in 8 sessions of 90 minutes each week. The results of the research showed that by controlling the effect of the pre-test, there was a significant difference between the post-test average of self-injurious behaviors (f=59.513, p=0.001) and emotional instability (f=78.122, p=0.001) in the two experimental groups. And there is evidence of a significant difference. Based on this, it can be concluded that treatment based on acceptance and commitment is effective in self-harming behaviors and emotional instability.

Considering the complexity and importance of borderline personality disorder as well as the relatively high prevalence rate of this disorder in the society, this research was conducted with the aim of investigating the effectiveness of emotion-oriented therapy on the treatment of patients with borderline personality disorder.

The method of this quasi-experimental research and the design used to examine the hypotheses in this research was a pre-test-post-test design with an experimental group and a control group. The statistical population of this research was made up of all people with borderline personality disorder who visited two counseling centers in one area of Tehran in 2020. 30 people with borderline personality disorder were selected by purposive sampling method and then these people were placed in two groups of 15 people (emotional treatment experimental group and control group) by matching method. The experimental group received 12 sessions of 120 minutes on a weekly basis and the control group did not receive the treatment. The tool for collecting information in this research was the borderline personality questionnaire (Leichsenring, 1999). Due to the quantitative nature of the research, data analysis was done using descriptive and inferential statistics methods (analysis of covariance test).

The findings showed that the observed F value for the borderline personality and its dimensions in the adjusted model (by adjusting the pre-test effect) for the whole scale, identity confusion, primary defense mechanism, reality testing, fear of intimacy and borderline personality respectively, is equal to: 33.275, 8.123, 7.902, 10.025 and 72.865. Moreover, its significance level (sig) is equal to 0.000, which indicates the existence of a significant difference between the post-test score in the experimental group and the control group, so the main effect of the group variable is significant, which means that emotion-oriented treatment is effective in the treatment of patients with borderline personality.

Therefore, it can be concluded that emotion-oriented therapy can be a useful method for treating patients with borderline personality disorders, so it is suggested that specialists benefit from it in their work

The present study was conducted with the purpose of determining the fit of the structural model of borderline personality syndrome based on the experience of childhood trauma and emotional dysregulation with the mediating role of mentalization.

The current research method was descriptive-correlation of structural equations type. The statistical population of the present study was all the people referred to the psychiatric clinic of Imam Hossein Hospital in Karaj. Sampling was done through convenience method and the sample size was estimated to be 330 people according to Kline (2016), and after removing the distorted information questionnaires, 319 people were analyzed. Data collection tools were Lichsenring's borderline personality scale (1999), Gratz and Romer's emotion dysregulation questionnaire (2004), Bernstein et al.'s childhood trauma questionnaire (2003), and Dimitrijoys et al.'s mentalization questionnaire (2018). Data analysis was done using structural equation modeling.

The results of this study showed that the presented structural model has a good fit. The results showed that childhood trauma experience has a direct effect on borderline personality syndrome (β=0.79; P<0.001). Also, emotion dysregulation has a direct effect on borderline personality syndrome (β=0.76; P<0.001). Childhood trauma experience (β=0.81; P<0.001) and emotional dysregulation (β=0.73; P<0.001) have an indirect effect on borderline personality syndromes through the mediation of mentalization.

It can be concluded that the structural model of borderline personality syndrome based on the experience of childhood trauma and emotional dysregulation with the mediating role of mentalization has a suitable fit

This study aimed to investigate the moderating effect of mental pain on the association between depression, anxiety, and borderline personality disorder. This study was descriptive and correlational in nature. The statistical population of this research consisted of all students at Shahid Beheshti University in Tehran in 2021, and the random sample consisted of 310 men and women. Participants completed the Depression Inventory (BDI), Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), Mental Pain Scale (OMMP), and Personality Assessment Index-Characteristics of Borderline Personality Disorder (PAI-BOR). Hierarchically examined data were subjected to multiple regression analysis using SPSS-26 software. The results showed that the variables of anxiety, depression, and mental anguish accurately predict the characteristics of borderline personality disorder. In addition, the interaction between the variables of depression and psychological distress is predictive of borderline personality disorder characteristics. There was no significant interaction between psychological discomfort and anxiety. Therefore, psychological distress has a moderating effect on the relationship between depression and borderline personality disorder characteristics. According to the results, it is explained that the higher experience of mental pain is a result of not satisfying inner and interpersonal needs, and that less satisfaction causes the individual to have a more negative self-image and more negative emotions, or, in other words, more psychological pain. In addition, high levels of psychological distress are associated with elevated levels of borderline personality disorder characteristics, such as emotional instability, identity disorder, and self-harm.

Borderline personality disorder is a complex and serious mental disorder that is characterized by a pervasive pattern of problems in regulating emotions and controlling impulses, and instability in interpersonal relationships and self-concept. The aim of the present study was to model borderline personality symptoms based on attachment: the mediating role of self-differentiation and mentalization.

The current research is descriptive and correlational (using structural equation modeling). The statistical population studied in this research included all the female and male students of the undergraduate and postgraduate courses of Tehran Azad University who were studying in the academic year 2019-20. The sample of the present study included 370 people who were selected by purposive sampling. Data were collected using the Borderline Personality Questionnaire (Lishnernig, 1999), the Revised Close Relationships-Relationship Structure Questionnaire (Fraley, Valero Brennan, 2000), the Self-Differentiation Questionnaire of Skorn and Friedlander (1998) and the Reflective Action Scale of Fonagy et al. 2015) was obtained. In the present study, the mean, standard deviation, correlation and normality of the distribution of research variables were investigated using descriptive statistics. Also, in order to analyze the data and answer the research questions, the structural equation modeling method is used, which after confirmatory factor analysis - in the measurement model part, in the structural equation model part, the existing causal relationships between the variables are examined. In the part of the structural function model, the intensity of the causal relationships (direct, indirect and total) between the underlying variables and the amount of variance explained in the whole model is specified. SPSS and Amos version 21 software were used for this purpose.

The results showed that attachment (β=0.41), self-differentiation (β=0.24), and mentalization (β=0.28) have a direct effect on borderline personality symptoms (P<0.001). Self-differentiation and mentalization had a mediating role in the relationship between borderline personality symptoms and attachment.

As a result, it can be concluded that the modeling of borderline personality symptoms based on attachment with the mediating role of self-differentiation, and mentalization has a favorable fit.

Although the relationship between borderline personality traits and students' non-suicidal self-injury has been confirmed, little attention has been paid to its mediating factors. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the mediating role of cognitive emotion regulation in the relationship between borderline personality traits and non-suicidal self-injury in students.

This was a descriptive correlational study. The statistical population included 202 students of Azad Islamic University of Neyshabur, Iran. The participants were selected by convenience sampling method. Data were collected by borderline personality scale (STB), cognitive emotion regulation questionnaire (CERQ), and deliberate self-harm inventory (DSHI). Data were analyzed using SPSS software, LISREL software, Pearson correlation, and structural equation modeling.

The findings showed that maladaptive cognitive emotion regulation strategies (self-blame, rumination, catastrophizing, other-blame) mediated the relationship between borderline personality traits and non-suicidal self-injury in students.

According to the results of the present study, people with borderline personality traits experience non-suicidal self-injury through maladaptive cognitive emotion regulation strategies. Therefore, clinical interventions related to emotion regulation can play an important role in preventing non-suicidal self-injury.

The aim of this study was to model borderline personality traits based on attachment: the mediating role of self-differentiation, and emotional dysregulation.

The present study is descriptive and correlational (using structural equation modeling). The statistical population studied in this study included all male and female undergraduate and graduate students of Tehran Azad University who were studying in the 2019-20 academic year. The sample of the present study included 370 people who were selected by purposive sampling. Data were obtained using the Borderline Personality Questionnaire (Leishnring, 1999), the Revised Relationships-Relationship Structure Questionnaire (Fraley, Valero Brennan, 2000), the Scorne and Friedlander Self-Differentiation Questionnaire (1998), and the Gretz and Roemer Emotion Regulation Difficulty Scale. (2004). In the present study, the mean, standard deviation, correlation and normality of the distribution of research variables were investigated using descriptive statistics. Also, in order to analyze the data and answer the research questions, the structural equation modeling method is used, which after confirmatory factor analysis - in the measurement model section, in the structural equation model section, the causal relationships between latent variables are examined. In the model part of the structural function, the intensity of causal relationships (direct, indirect and total) between latent variables and the amount of variance explained in the whole model is specified. SPSS and Amos software version 21 were used for this purpose.

The results showed that attachment (β=0.41), self-differentiation (β=0.24), and emotion regulation (β=0.31) had a direct effect on borderline personality symptoms (P<0.001). Self-differentiation and emotional dysregulation mediated the relationship between borderline personality traits and attachment.

As a result, it can be concluded that the modeling of borderline personality traits based on attachment to the mediating role of self-differentiation, and emotional dysregulation has a favorable fit.

he purpose of the present study was to investigate the mediating role of emotional schemas and emotional regulation in the relationship between child abuse, emotional vulnerability and borderline personality feature. The present study is a correlational study and structural equation modeling. Participants were 462 people of general population of West Azerbaijan province were selected by cyberspace sampling method.

Emotional schemas also mediated between child abuse and emotional vulnerability with emotional dysregulation. Based on the findings of this study, it can be concluded that emotional schemas can increase borderline personality traits.

The aim of the present study was to explain the fit of the structural model of loneliness based on the quality of parent-child communication and object relationships with the mediation of narcissism in people with borderline personality tendencies. In this descriptive-correlational study, 556 people who referred to counseling centers and psychological services in Qom city in the period of 9 months from July to March 2019 with borderline personality tendencies were selected by purposive sampling and the loneliness questionnaires of Asher et al. (1984), scale Children's attitude towards their parents were completed by Hudson and Rapi (2001), Margolis and Thomas (1980) narcissism scale, Bell's object Relations Questionnaire (1995) and Kernberg and Clarkin's (1995) Personality Organization Questionnaire. Structural equation modeling was used to analyze the data and check the assumed research model. The results showed that the structural model of loneliness based on the quality of parent-child relationships, object relationships with the mediation of narcissism has a favorable fit (df / 2 = 4.82, CFI = 0.950, GFI = 0.962, AGFI = 0.916 And RMSEA = 0.084) And it indicated that the quality of parent-child relationships, object relationships and narcissism explain 64% of the variance of loneliness in people with borderline personality tendencies. It seems that the feeling of loneliness can be explained based on the intrapersonal component of the primary object relationships and the interpersonal component of the quality of communication with parents, both directly and through the mediation of narcissism.

Borderline personality disorder is a complex and serious mental disorder that contains a pervasive pattern of instability in interpersonal relationships, self-image, emotions, and impulsivity that begins in early adulthood. The aim of this study was to predict the characteristics of borderline personality disorder based on their attachment and differentiation styles through emotion regulation. The study population was all students of Tehran universities with a sample of 372 who were selected using available sampling method.

Research data were analyzed using correlation and regression methods.  The results showed that the difficulty in regulating emotion as a mediating variable partially affects the relationship between self-differentiation and attachment styles with borderline personality disorder traits. Therefore, in a general conclusion, it can be said  attachment styles, self-differentiation were mediated by emotion regulation, may predict the characteristics of borderline personality disorder independenly

According to research, emotion regulation therapy is effective on many mental disorders. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of group therapy of emotion regulation on the symptoms of borderline personality disorder.

For the present quasi-experimental and applied research, among women with borderline personality disorder referred to Tohid Psychology Clinic in Isfahan (50 people), 18 volunteers were selected as a sample and randomly divided into 2 groups and a questionnaire. Completed the Lischenring frontier character and the Jackson and Claridge frontier character. The experimental groups then participated in 8 sessions and 2 sessions per week in their programs. Finally, repeated measures analysis of variance and Bonferroni post hoc test were used to analyze the data.

The results showed that emotion regulation was effective on symptoms, emotional turmoil, frustration, fear of intimacy and impulsivity, but there was no significant difference between reality and dissociative symptoms compared to pre-test.

According to the results, the use of group therapy of emotion regulation to improve the condition of women with borderline personality disorder is recommended.

The purpose of this study was to compare antisocial and borderline personality disorder, empathy, and mirror neuron function in chronic addicts and non-addicts with secure and insecure attachment styles. The research method is causal-comparative. The statistical population of this study consisted of all opioid addicts (opium and heroin addicts) who were referred to addiction treatment centers in Tehran in 2019. Sampling method was purposive sampling. The research instruments included the Hazen & Shaver Attachment Style Questionnaire (1987), Davies Empathy Questionnaire (1983), the Millon 3 Clinical Multidisciplinary Questionnaire, and electroencephalography apparatus. Data were analyzed using multivariate analysis of variance. Results of data analysis showed that main effect of attachment styles was significant (p <0.05). Accordingly, the differences between the two groups of secure and insecure attachment styles in antisocial personality, borderline personality, empathy, and mirror neuron function in the cz channel were confirmed. Accordingly, in both groups of addicts and non-addicts, insecure attachment style had a greater effect on antisocial personality, borderline personality, empathy, and mirror neuronal function in the cz channel. . Also, people with a secure attachment style from a psychoanalytic perspective have a better ability to control their transient needs and behavioral impulses. Benefiting from a strong super ego allows the individual to manage and control the emotions and impulses of the id more powerfully. Postponement of immediate and transient needs draws human attention and concentration to the satisfaction of more important and long-term needs that play an effective role in a person's mental health, as well as the amount of neurotic anxiety caused by interpersonal conflicts. It focuses on the behavior and reduction of impulsive behaviors in these people.

The aim of the current study was to investigate the effect of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) on the improvement of emotion regulation and dysfunctional attitudes in people with Borderline personality disorder. The study method was a pretest-posttest quasi-experimental design with a waiting-list group. The statistical population of the study was all those people with borderline personality disorder who were referred to Fatemi hospital of Ardabil, Iran in the autumn of 2018. Thirty-two patients were selected by convenience sampling method and they were randomly assigned to two experimental (16 members) and waiting-list (16 members) groups. Members of both groups were individually responded to scales of emotion processing (EPS) Baker, Thomas, Thomas and Owens (2007) and dysfunctional attitudes (DAS) Weissman and Beck (1978). Then, the intervention was performed by the transcranial direct electrical stimulation device on the experimental group members for 10 consecutive days for 20 minutes by placing anode in region F3 and cathode in region F4 individually. Whereas the group of waiting-list participants did not receive this intervention. Then, a post-test was performed on both waiting-list and experimental groups. Data were analyzed by multivariate analysis of covariance (MANCOVA) with SPSS-24 software. Results showed that there were significant differences between experimental and control groups in intrusion, suppression, uncontrolled impulses, discordant and dissociation components of emotion regulation and perfectionism, need to others confirmation, need to others satisfaction, and suggestibility of performance evaluation components of dysfunctional attitudes (P<0.05). These results reveal the effect of transcranial direct current stimulation on improving emotion regulation and dysfunctional attitudes in individuals with a borderline personality disorder. Given to high resistance to psychological therapies in people with borderline personality disorder, these results can promise new neuropsychological interventions for this disorder.

The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of schema therapy on quality of life in adolescents with borderline personality disorder.

The present study was a real experimental factor design with pre-test and post-test with a 2-month follow-up phase. The statistical population of the present study included all adolescent female patients in the age range of 15 to 17 and with borderline syndrome disorder in Bojnourd public ward transplant clinic in 1399-1400. Using simple random sampling method, 40 of them were selected and 3 experimental groups (10 people in each group) and one control group (10 people) were replaced. The experimental groups underwent 20 sessions of 90-minute schema therapy with cognitive, experimental and behavioral techniques; But the control group did not receive any intervention and remained on the waiting list. The Borderline Personality Traits Scale for Children (BPFS-C) of Craig et al. (2005) and the Quality of Life Questionnaire (SF-36) by War and Chorbon (1992) were used to collect data. The analysis of the information obtained from the implementation of the questionnaires was performed through SPSS software version 24 in two descriptive and inferential sections (analysis of variance with repeated measures and Ben Foroni post hoc test).

The results showed that the mentioned treatment with its three techniques in the post-test and follow-up stage compared to the control group had a significant effect on increasing the quality of life of borderline personality (P <0.05).

Based on the results of the present study, it can be said that schema therapy can be used as a treatment method to increase the quality of life of borderline personality of adolescent girls with borderline personality disorder in medical centers.

The borderline personality disorder is a stable psychological disorder that poses significant psychological adjustment challenges. As a result, identifying effective factors can be useful in developing prevention programs. Therefore, the present study aimed to investigate the mediating role of emotion regulation difficulty in the relationship between child abuse experience, schema modes, and mother's perceived parenting styles with borderline personality.

The method of the present study is descriptive-correlation based on structural equation modeling. The statistical population of the present study was all individuals with borderline personality disorder referred to treatment centers (clinics and psychiatric hospitals) in Tehran in 2019, of which 250 were selected by purposive sampling. For data collection, all participants completed the following instruments: the Leichsenring's Borderline Personality, the Mohammadkhani's child abuse, the Lobbestael's Schema Modes, the Grolnick's Perceived Parenting, and the Toronto Alexithymia scale, and the Gratz and Roemer Difficulties in Emotion Regulation.

The results indicated that there is a direct and significant relationship between emotion regulation difficulty, child abuse experience, schema modes, and mother's perceived parenting styles with borderline personality (P>0.05). In addition, child abuse experience, Schema Modes, and mother's perceived parenting styles with borderline personality were indirectly associated with borderline personality with the mediating role of emotion regulation difficulty (P>0.05).

The present study confirmed the role of emotion regulation difficulty, child abuse experience, schema modes, and mother's perceived parenting styles in explaining borderline personality, which provides clinicians with the theoretical basis for developing preventive programs. Theoretical and practical implications of the presented results and model are also discussed.
