considering the lack of RCT’s and the importance of the subject it was necessary to examine the effectiveness of capacity building Dynamic Psychotherapy on emotion dysregulation and distress tolerance of boatrderline personality disorder patients.

this was a randomized controlled trial and from all BPD patients with high levels of emotion dysregulation and low levels of distress tolerance of neuropsychiatric clinics in Qom during fall 2023, 30 eligible individuals were selected using randomized clustered sampling and were randomly assigned into intervention and control group. The data from Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS) and Distress Tolerance Scale (DTS) in pretest and posttest were analyzed via SPSS-26 through analyze of covariance (ANCOVA).

the ANCOVA results showed that the differences between groups in emotion dysregulation (F=75/66, p=0/04) and distress tolerance (F=86/15, p=0/02) were significant.

Capacity Building Dynamic Psychotherapy can be considered as an effective intervention for reducing emotion dysregulation and improving distress tolerance in BPD patients.

 Infertility is one of the major reproductive problems and is defined as the inability to conceive after one year of sexual intercourse without using any method of pregnancy prevention. The current study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of designing a cognitive-behavioral coping training package for infertile women, specifically focusing on the impact of infertility stress on distress tolerance and cognitive regulation of emotion.

This was a quasi-experimental design that involved a pre-test, a post-test, and a two-month follow-up. The participants were infertile women who were referred to infertility centers and the offices of gynecologists for infertility treatment in Kermanshah city in 2021. Sixty people were selected as a sample using the purposeful sampling method based on informed consent and randomly divided into three groups (two experimental groups and one control group), and each experimental group trained in 12 sessions using a cognitive-behavioral coping training package with Ghobadi infertility stress. Data collection forms included Perceived Infertility Stress (PIS), Distress Tolerance Scale (DTS), and Cognitive Emotion Regulation (CER). The statistical tests consisted of chi-square and repeated measure ANOVA, which were analyzed by SPSS V.24, and the level of significance was considered less than 0.05.

There is a difference between the three stages of pre-test, post-test, and follow-up in the Distress Tolerance scale (P<0.001) and Cognitive Emotion Regulation’s scores (P<0.001). Also, these differences were significant between groups during the follow-up stage (P<0.001).

The cognitive-behavioral coping training package with infertility stress can be effective in decreasing the distress tolerance and cognitive emotion regulation of infertile women's emotions.

Risky behaviors are a common challenges faced with adolescence and can have significant impacts on their physical and mental health. The aim of the this study was to examine a causal model of the tendency towards risky behaviors in adolescents based on the bright dimensions of personality, considering the mediating effect of distress tolerance as well as the moderating influence of perceived authoritative parenting style.

This study was conducted with a fundamental objective and a descriptive-correlational method. The statistical population of this study consisted of all adolescents aged 16-20 years in Isfahan City, from which a total of 474 individuals were selected through a staged sampling method. Data was collected using Buri's (1991) Parenting Authority Scale, Simon and Qaher’s (2005) Distress Tolerance Scale, Kaufman’s (2019) Bright Personality Triad Scale and Alizadeh’s (2008) Iranian Adolescent Risk-Taking Scale. For data analysis, methods of structural equation modeling were employed using SPSS AMOS-26 software at a significance level of 0.05.

In this study, 293 girls (61.8%) and 181 boys (38.2%) participated, with a mean age of 18.6 years. The direct path coefficients showed that the bright dimensions of personality had a significant negative impact on distress tolerance, and that distress tolerance had a negative and significant effect on risky behaviors (P<0.05, r=-0.226). Additionally, the bright dimensions of personality had a significant negative effect on risky behaviors. The indirect effect of bright dimensions of personality on risky behaviors through distress tolerance was found to be positive and also it was significant for individuals with different scores on authoritative parenting style (P<0.05, r=-0.286).

The authoritative parenting style can be an effective moderator in the connection between bright dimensions of personality and risky behaviors in adolescents. Furthermore, distress tolerance plays a significant role in mediating the reduction of risky behaviors. Hence, it is recommended that educational and supportive programs be developed for adolescents in order to improve their distress tolerance skills. This will ultimately lead to better mental health and a decrease in risky behaviors.

Given the severity of the disease's spread, the World Health Organization declared a state of emergency on February 4, 2020, and many countries subsequently announced national quarantine. An epidemic of a disease is not only a physical phenomenon but also affects individuals and communities on many levels. Fear of illness, death, the spread of false news and rumors, disruption of daily activities, implementation of restrictive measures preventing public presence, going to places or meeting with other families, creating job–related issues and their consequences, and putting the mental health of individuals at risk in society. In addition, quarantine and restrictions are forms of isolation that are psychologically unpleasant and distressing. Based on previous research, cognitive processes can help individuals manage their emotions after experiencing difficult life events. Therefore, the present study aimed to determine the role of cognitive–emotional regulation and distress tolerance in predicting the psychological well–being of hospitalized patients with COVID–19 during quarantine.

We conducted descriptive–analytical research of correlational type. The statistical population comprised all outpatients with COVID–19 during quarantine in 2019. According to Green's model (2003), a minimum sample size of 106 was necessary to achieve better results and prevent bias. However, 150 individuals were selected using convenience sampling, based on their availability and meeting the inclusion criteria, through online platforms and virtual applications (WhatsApp & Telegram). The inclusion criteria were as follows: being infected with the COVID–19 disease on an outpatient basis and spending time in quarantine, being older than 18 years, being literate more than junior high school level, and providing written consent to participate in the research. The exclusion criteria were hospitalization of the affected person, age range less than 18 years, literacy level lower than junior high school, and not consenting to participate in the research. The research tools included the Cognitive–Emotional Regulation Questionnaires (Garnefski & Kraaij, 2006), the Distress Tolerance Scale (Simmons & Gaher, 2005), and the Psychological Well–Being Scale–Short–Form (Ryff, 1989). The research data were analyzed using SPSS software. The Pearson correlation and linear multiple regression analysis were performed at a significance level of less than 0.05.

The results of the Pearson correlation showed a positive and significant relationship between emotional cognitive regulation (and its subscales) (r=0.771) and distress tolerance (and its subscales) (r=0.677) with psychological well–being in outpatients with COVID–19 (p<0.001). The results of the multiple regression analysis with the simultaneous model showed that both variables of distress tolerance and cognitive–emotional regulation together predict psychological well–being by 73%. Also, cognitive emotional regulation (p<0.001, β=0.493) and distress tolerance (p=0.005, β=0.275) positively and meaningfully predict psychological well–being. In addition, cognitive–emotional regulation (Beta=0.493), with a higher beta value, was considered a stronger predictor of psychological well–being.

According to the research results, emotional cognitive regulation and distress tolerance significantly predict the psychological well–being of hospitalized patients with COVID–19 during quarantine.

Cardiovascular disease is one of the most common causes of death among non-communicable diseases.

The present study was conducted to determine the effectiveness of acceptance and commitment therapy on distress tolerance and compassion in women with cardiovascular problems.

The research method was semi-experimental with a pre-test-post-test design with a control group. The statistical population consisted of female patients suffering from cardiovascular problems referred to the heart department of Imam Reza (AS) Amol Hospital in 1401-1402, 30 of whom were selected by available sampling method and divided into two treatment groups: acceptance and commitment (15 people) and control group (15). people) were placed. To collect data, Simon and Gaher (2005) distress tolerance scale and Neff (2003) compassion scale were used. The training group received Hayes et al.'s (2011) acceptance and commitment therapy for 8 sessions of 45 minutes. The data was analyzed using covariance analysis method with spss software version 22.

The results of covariance analysis showed that there is a significant difference between the scores of the control and experimental groups (P=0.001). So that the treatment of acceptance and commitment led to an increase in distress tolerance and compassion in women with cardiovascular problems (P<0.05).

Based on the obtained results, acceptance and commitment therapy was a suitable method to improve distress tolerance and compassion-exercise in women with cardiovascular problems. Due to the effectiveness of this method, it is suggested to be used along with other treatment methods to improve these variables in these women.

Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease linked to heightened stress levels and a substantial negative impact a patient's quality of life and their ability to tolerate distress. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of cognitive-behavioural therapy and compassion-focused therapy in improving distress tolerance among women with psoriasis.

This semi-experimental study utilized a pretest-posttest design with a control group and included a follow-up period of two months. The research's statistical population comprised all women with psoriasis in Tehran during the autumn of 2024. A total of 45 women diagnosed by a physician were randomly assigned to three groups: 15 women in the cognitive-behavioural therapy group, 15 women in the compassion-focused therapy group, and a control group containing 15 women. The first experimental group participated in eight sessions of 90 minutes each of cognitive-behavioral therapy, while the second experimental group attended ten sessions of 90 minutes each of compassion-focused therapy. Data were collected using the Distress Tolerance Scale (DTS) developed by Simons and Gaher . For data analysis, we employed analysis of variance with repeated measures along with the Bonferroni post hoc test. The analysis was conducted using SPSS version 28.

The results indicated that both interventions significantly affected distress tolerance (P<0.05). Furthermore, the Bonferroni post hoc test results revealed that compassion-focused therapy was more effective than cognitive-behavioral therapy in improving distress tolerance (P<0.05).

Based on the results of this study, both cognitive-behavioral therapy and compassion-focused therapy can be effective treatment methods for improving distress tolerance in women with psoriasis. However, compassion-focused therapy is prioritized as the more effective approach for enhancing distress tolerance in this population.

The data were analyzed using structural equations modelling.

The findings showed that the direct effects of anxiety, depression, and distress tolerance on sexual function were significant (p=0.001). Also, the results showed that distress tolerance has a mediating role in the relationship between anxiety and depression and sexual function.

According to the results of the current study, sexual function of postmenopausal women with type 2 diabetes can be affected by anxiety, depression, and distress tolerance. It is concluded that anxiety and depression affect the distress tolerance and cause defects in the sexual function of postmenopausal women with type 2 diabetes; so it is suggested to reduce their anxiety and depression in psychological interventions for these women.

Having a child with intellectual disability can cause several psychological problems for parents, especially for mothers as the main caregiver. Therefore, it is very important to find ways to handle such problems. The present study aimed to determine the effectiveness of a self-compassion training intervention focused on cognitive emotion regulation and distress tolerance among mothers of children with intellectual disability.

This research used a quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest and a three-month follow-up with control group. The participants were 40 mothers of children with intellectual disability. The participants referred to an education and rehabilitation center in Kashan (Iran) and were randomly selected and assigned to experimental and control groups, each containing 20 participants. The experimental group received self-compassion training (45) in twelve sessions (each session 90 minutes) sessions based on Germer and Neff (2013), while the control group remained on the waiting list. The data collection instruments were Garnefski & Kraaij’s Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (2007) and Simons and Gaher’s Distress Tolerance Scale (2005). Data analysis was performed using SPSS-24 software and one-way repeated measures multivariate analysis of variance.

The findings of the one-way repeated measures multivariate analysis of variance showed that self-compassion training helped the participants use more adaptive cognitive emotion regulation strategies (F=118.73, P=.001) and distress tolerance (F=126.15, P=.001) as well as fewer unadaptive cognitive emotion regulation strategies (F=90.11, P=.001). Additionally, these effects remained stable in the three-month follow-up phase.

Self-compassion traning encouraged mothers of chlideren with intellectual disability to care more about themselves, which helped them adopt a more compassionate view of themselves in challenging situations and deal with the particular difficulties associated with raisng these children. Therefore, it is recommended that significant measures be taken to enhance the mental health of mothers of children with intellectual disabilities by providing them with self-compassion guidelines so that they can use more adaptive and fewer maladaptive cognitive emotion regulation strategies and increase their distress tolerance.
