Based on the methodology of reviewing resources, Research literature
In PLP was reviewed through PsycInfo, Medline and Cochrane Library sites between 1999 and 2016 using keywords, phantom limb pain, treatment, psychotherapy. From articles, references and related books, items that had well-known and experienced authors, and have been repeatedly cited, were selected.
The PLP related concepts, different approaches and effective psychological treatments are presented.
Several factors affect PLP and, according to theoretical foundations, there are several causes and the effectiveness of different therapies has been emphasized in the research literature. EMDR as a reference psychotherapy and a method consistent with the approach derived from neurology is distinct from classical psychotherapy and as a therapeutic model adapted to events and unresolved problems that are Chronic and resistant to treatment.

Given the post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) has high prevalence among veterans. On the other hand, this disorder creates problems for veterans and their families.
Therefore, the aim of current research is to investigate the efficacy of Eye movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) on PTSD among male veterans resident in a nursing home.
Material & This research is a quasi-experimental study with pre and post- tests. The population of study was veteran resident in Kahrizak nursing home.20 veterans selected with purposely sample. They were assigned randomly to the control and experimental groups. The experimental groups received techniques of MDRE for ten treatment sessions (90 minutes for one session, per week). The research instrument was PTSD Checklist- military version (PCL-m). Statistical analysis conducted by analysis of covariance
There is significantly difference in PTSD (F=1.05, sig=0.318) and subscales; intrusion (F=1.63, sig=0.218), avoidance (F= 0.017, sig= 0.427), hyper-arousal (F=0.641, sig=0.434) between veterans in pre and post-test
Discussion and the findings indicated that MDRE has positive influence on reducing of symptoms PTSD in male veterans resident in a nursing home.

Hospitalization, surgery and anesthesia are for some children associated with anxiety and could be a frightful experience which may result in later problematic behavior. Different strategies are suggested to reduce the anxiety. EMDR as a non-pharmacological and inexpensive intervention can be used as a complementary technique. This study aimed to investigate the effect of EMDR on pre operative anxiety in children undergoing surgery. In this semi-experimental study, 56 children aged 12-18 years, were categorized into the study and control groups. Each girl subject was matched with a boy of the same age. The study was conducted at Alzahra¸ a Hospital in Isfahan, Iran, in spring and summer, 2013. EMDR was administered for 45 to 60 minutes for the study group. The data gathering instruments were questionnaires which included demographic information and the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory for Children (STAIC). The hypothesis was tested with repeated measurement analysis of variance (ANOVA), t-test, Fisher, Chi-square and Mann-Whitney test. Findings of the study indicated that there was a significant reduction in the anxiety level after intervention in the study group in comparison to the control group (p<0.001). This finding showed that anxiety scores in study group declined after EMDR, compared to patients who hadn’t receive any intervention.

Since low adjustment is one of the main problems prisoners struggling with and considered to be one of the reasons for their tendency toward dangerous behaviors, this study was aimed at investigating the effect of desensitization by eye movements and reprocessing on enhancement of social, affective and health adjustment of prisoners. Method of study: This study was designed based on experimental method and by pretest and posttest model with control group. A sample of 40 individuals was taken (based on the type of their crimes) from prisoners in Ardebil's central jail with jail sentences as long as 4 months using stratified random sampling method. Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale and Bel adjustment questionnaire were used to collect data which was completed in both pretest and posttest by experimental and control groups. Treatment of desensitization with eye movements and reprocessing was conducted during four sessions on experimental group and during which control group was not involved. Data was analyzed using covariance analysis test. the results from this investigation indicated that the average grades for social, affective and health adjustment in experimental group were significantly higher than those in control group (P<0.001). treatment of desensitization by eye movements and reprocessing were effective on enhancing the adjustment of male prisoners. Therefore jail's psychologists can play a substantial role in enhancement of the adjustment of these people by teaching this short term treatment method and implementing it on sentenced people upon their entrance to jail.
