 Although several studies have been conducted on the relationship between personality traits and sports injuries, their relationship with the occurrence of sports injuries is unclear. Therefore, the purpose of this systematic review study was to review the relationship between personality factors presented in Williams and Anderson’s stress sports injury model.

 The present study was a systematic review. Search for articles was conducted in the specialized databases “Embase,” “Medline,” “SPORTDiscus,” “Biomed Central,” “Web of Science,” and “PubMed” from inception until May 2021. The keywords “sports injury,” “sensation seeking,” “achievement motivation,” “locus of control,” “anxiety,” “personality traits,” and “hardiness” were used for the search.

 The literature search in different databases led to the extraction of 1283 articles. After duplicate removal, article screening, and full-text assessment, 28 articles were found that examined the association between personality traits and sports injuries. The study of the content of these articles showed a significant relationship between trait anxiety and the emergence of sports injuries. However, there are conflicting results regarding the relationship between locus of control and sensation seeking with the occurrence of sports injuries. Additionally, the number of studies on the relationship between hardiness and achievement motivation with sports injuries was limited.

 A review of previous studies suggests a significant relationship between competitive trait anxiety and sports injuries. Further studies are needed to draw better and stronger conclusions about the relationship between mental hardiness, locus of control, sensation seeking, and achievement motivation with sports injuries.

 Risky behaviors are among the factors that threaten the health of adolescents, which have significant effects on adolescents and society. The aim of this research is to determine the mediating role of cost-benefit estimation, future orientation in the relationship between sensation seeking and cognitive abilities with high-risk behaviors among adolescents in Shiraz.

 This correlational and structural equation modeling study was conducted with the participation of 500 male adolescent in Shiraz city with available sampling in 2023. The data were collected using questionnaires of cognitive abilities, future orientation, calculation, risky behavior and the short form of sensation seeking scale. Data were analyzed using the structural equation modeling method and SPSS Statistics for Windows, version 26.0 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, Ill., USA) and AMOS-26 statistical software.

 With the increase in sensation seeking, risky behaviors increased (r=0.12). But with the increase of cognitive capabilities (r=-0.41), future orientation (r=-0.26) and cost-benefit estimation (r=-0.20), behaviors Risky decreased. Cognitive abilities have a direct, negative and significant effect on high-risk behaviors
(β=-0.501, P<0.001), while a positive and significant direct effect on cost-benefit estimation (β=0.260, P<0.001) and future orientation (β=-0.683, P<0.001). On the other hand, sensation seeking has a direct, positive and significant effect on risky behaviors (β=0.131, P<0.001) and cost-benefit estimation (β=0.397, P<0.001), while which has a significant and negative direct effect on future orientation (β=-0.084, P=0.023). Also, cost-benefit estimation (β=-0.169, P<0.001) and future orientation (β=-0.139, P=0.024) have a negative and significant direct effect on high-risk behaviors.

 The study showed that rising risky behaviors increased with the increase in sensation seeking. But with the increase of cognitive capabilities, future orientation and cost-benefit estimation, risky behaviors decreased. Sensationalism and cognitive abilities have a negative indirect effect on high-risk behaviors through cost-benefit estimation and future orientation. Therefore, the two variables of cost and benefit estimation and future orientation have a mediating role in the relationship between sensation seeking and cognitive abilities with risky behavior.

Marital conflicts are among the major problems in societies, which harm the structures of families and cause behavioral and psychological problems in children. The present study aimed to examine the mediating role of marital conflict in the relationship between attachment styles, narcissism and sensation seeking, and marital burnout. 

A correlational method based on structural equation modeling was used in this research. The sample population was the couples that were married for 5 years, referring to consulting centers in the second and third quarters of 2018 to solve their marital conflicts. In total, 100 couples were selected through convenience sampling method. They completed the following questionnaires: 1) Narcissistic Personality Inventory (NPI–40, Ruskin and Terry, 1988), Ruskin and Hull developed the main version of the Narcissistic Personality Inventory based on the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Third Edition (DSM–III). Moreover, it consists of 40 pairs and 7 items (authority, self–sufficiency, superiority seeking, self–display, exploitation, pride, & nicknaming); the obtained points of each person implicate the presence or lack of one of the attributes. The experimental studies have supported the reliability of it (Ruskin and Terry, 1988; Ackerman et al., 2011). 2) The Marital Conflict Questionnaire (MCQ, Sanaei & Barati, 2000) that consists of 54 items and 7 subscales about decreased cooperation decreased sexual relationships, drawing more support from children, more personal relationships with kinsmen, reduced family relationships with the family of spouse and friends, less effective relation with the spouse, and the separation of financial matters from the spouse. The results of several studies have supported the validity and reliability of this scale (Zahed Babolan, Husseini Shurabeh, Piri, and Dehghan, 2015). 3) In the adult version of the Attachment Style Scale, (AAS–R, Collins & Reid,1990), Collins and Reid (1990) have emphasized the differentiation logic of Hazan and Shiver about attachment styles (secure, anxious, & avoidant children) described the discrimination of three attachment styles in the adult version; the sum of the scores of the subjects in each subscale is calculated in that subscale as their general score. Various studies have supported the technical aspects of the adult version (Collins and Reid, 1990; Pakdaman, 2011). 4) The Marital Burnout Questionnaire (MBQ, Paniz, 1996) includes 21 questions answered on a 7–point scale with three components of emotional tiredness, psychological tiredness, and physical tiredness. For explaining the obtained scores, the score of each participant is divided by the total number of questions of the tool (21 questions). The score of each dimension of burnout indicates an increased level of marital burnout. 5) Zuckermanchr('39')s Sensation Seeking Scale (SSS–1979) is a multidimensional tool, i.e., composed of 4 different aspects (subscales). These dimensions are thrill and adventure seeking, disinhibition, experience–seeking, and boredom susceptibility. Each subscale contains 10 items, making a total of 40 items. Every pair of items determines if a participant is a sensation seeker or not. The experimental studies have supported this scale’s reliability (Zuckerman 1994; Zuckerman 2007).

is the present study results suggested a significant relationship between secure attachment style (β=–0.17, p=0.027), avoidant attachment style (β=0.21, p=0.016), anxiety (β=0.48, p≤0.001), narcissism (β=0.30, p=0.008), sensation seeking (β=0.25, p=0.010), marital conflict (β=0.75, p≤0.001), and marital burnout. The fitness test of the structural equation model and the fitness of the final model revealed that the fitness indices were CFI=0.93, GFI=0.93, AGFI=0.90, and RMSEA=0.063, indicating a proper fit for the model and the relevant data.

According to the obtained data, it is necessary to provide educational workshops and interventions to reduce divorce and marital conflicts and to modify the confronting guidelines.

Alcohol addiction imposes heavy costs on health systems. Resilience is considered as a protective factor in the rate of alcohol consumption in sensation-seeking people. The purpose of this study was to determine how resilience mediates the relationship between sensation-seeking and alcohol consumption among people aged 24-40 years old in Tehran, Iran.

This descriptive study was conducted using a two-step cluster sampling in Tehran in 2017. 410 people aged 24 to 40 years old were selected through convenience sampling according to the entrance and exit criteria. The study assessments included Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT), Zuckerman’s Sensation- Seeking Scale (SSS), and Conner and Davidson’s Resilience Scale (CD-RISC), which were completed by the participants. Data were analyzed using Pearson’s correlation and structural equation modeling.
