title = {Causal Relationships Between Emotional Intelligence and Suicidal Ideation in Adolescents: Evaluating the Mediating Role of Finding Meaning in Life and Perceived Social Support}, 
abstract ={Objective: The present study was conducted to explain the causal relationship between emotional intelligence (EI) and suicidal ideation (SI) in adolescents living in state welfare organizations (SWO) with the mediating role of finding meaning in life and perceived social support (PSS). Methods: The sample included 320 adolescents living in Tehran’s SWO, selected by multistage cluster sampling and participating in the research. The current research was descriptive and correlational (using structural equation modeling [SEM]). The data were collected using the EIscale, the meaning in life questionnaire (MLQ), and the multidimensional scale of perceived social support (MSPSS) and were analyzed using SPSS software, version 22 and Amos software, version 24.   Results: The results showed that the model fits the collected data (χ2/df=2.37, comparative fit index [CFI]=0.957, goodness fit index [GFI]=0.920, adjusted GFI [AGFI]=0.881, and root mean square error of approximation [RMSEA]=0.066). Direct path coefficient (PC) between EI (β=0.177, P>0.01), finding meaning in life (β=0.311, P>0.01), and PSS (β=0.427, P>0.01) with SI was negative and significant. The indirect PC between EI (β=-0.101, P=0.001) and finding meaning in life (β=0.111, P=0.001) with SI was negative and significant.  Conclusion: The structural model of the research was the same in terms of fit with the data of two groups of girls and boys. Adolescents living in SWO are more vulnerable to suicide due to their unique experiences. Finding meaning in life, higher EI and social connections can reduce SI in adolescents and act as protective factors.},

title = {The Mediating Role of Spirituality and Personal Values Between Personality Dimensions and Death Anxiety in the Elderly}, 
abstract ={Objective: The present study aims to formulate a model of death anxiety (DA) in the elderly living in nursing homes based on personal values (PV) and spirituality and with the mediating role of gender.  Methods: The present research was conducted using correlational method and path analysis. The statistical population included all the elderly living in private nursing homes in Tehran City, Iran, in the summer and autumn of 2023, of which 340 people were selected by the convenience sampling method. During one session and individually, the participants responded to the Templer DA scale (DAS) (1970), Schwartz’s value survey, the spiritual questionnaire, and the HEXACO personality inventory-revised. Results: The results showed that the total path coefficient (PC) between PV (β=-0.211, P=0.001) and spirituality (β=-0.192, P=0.001) were significant with DA. Indirect PC of extraversion (P=0.001, β=-0.054), conscientiousness (β=-0.058, P=0.001), humility (P=0.049, β=-0.023) and emotionality (P=0.001, β=0.038) were significant with DA. The indirect PC between PV (P=0.001, β=0.037) and spirituality (P=0.001, β=0.060) with DA was negative and significant. Therefore, DA mediates the relationship between personality dimensions (PDs), PV, and spirituality. The research model was different in terms of fit with the data of two groups of women and men.  Conclusion: Multiple psychological mechanisms can predict DA in the elderly.},

abstract ={Objective: This study aims to compare the effectiveness of integrated schema therapy and mindfulness-based intervention with schema therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) on the psychological flexibility of women exhibiting obsessive-compulsive symptoms. Methods: The study used a quasi-experimental pre-test-post-test design with control and follow-up groups. The research was conducted on women with obsessive disorder who were referred to the Nedaye Agahi and Zehne Pouya Clinic in Tehran City, Iran, during the fall and winter of 2021. A total of 60 participants were selected using a convenience sampling method and were randomly assigned to three intervention groups: An integrated schema therapy and mindfulness-based intervention group, a schema therapy group, a CBT group and one control group. Data were collected using the psychological flexibility questionnaire and the Yale-Brown obsessive-compulsive scale. A repeated measures analysis of variance was conducted using SPSS software. Results: The results revealed significant differences among all three treatment groups compared to the control. In particular, the integrated interventions of schema therapy and mindfulness, as well as schema therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy, demonstrated a significant effect on psychological flexibility scores (P<0.05) compared to the control group. However, the two-way comparisons for other differences were not significant (P>0.05).  Conclusion: Given the emotional and cognitive challenges faced by patients with obsessive disorders, it is essential to prioritize these aspects in the treatment process.},

abstract ={Objective: Research suggests that children with hearing impairments are more vulnerable to emotional and behavioral challenges. The current study aims to determine the effectiveness of cognitive rehabilitation (CR) therapy on behavioral problems and emotional self-regulation (ESR) in children with hearing impairment. Methods: A quasi-experimental study was conducted with a pre-test-post-test design and a control group. A convenient sampling method was used to select 24 girls, ages 7 to 11 years (mean age=9.17±3.32 years) with hearing impairment. Subjects were randomly assigned to the experimental and control groups, each consisting of 12 girls. The experimental group received ten CR therapy sessions. Data were collected using two measures: The Conners’ parent rating scale (CPRS) and the ESR questionnaire. Multivariate analysis of covariance (MANCOVA) was used to analyze the data. Results: The results revealed that the CR program significantly affects behavioral problems and ESR of children with hearing impairment (P<0.05). Conclusion: Children with hearing problems improved in behavioral problems and ESR following the CR program. Therefore, providing a CR program for these children is particularly important.},

title = {The Effectiveness of Family-based Behavior Therapy on Behavioral Excesses of Children With Autism Via Telehealth}, 
abstract ={Objective: Family-based interventions are considered evidence-based approaches to reduce behavioral excesses for autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Due to some barriers to the delivery of these interventions for families living in underserved areas, innovative models, such as telehealth, should be investigated. Telehealth can also be an effective method to deliver interventions to immigrant families. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the effectiveness and feasibility of family-based management of behavioral excesses of autism program (FMBEAP) via telehealth in Iranian families. Methods: Fourteen parents of children with ASD (mean age of 38.14±9.42 months) participated in an intervention with pre-, post, and -follow-up design. These families received a 10-week group intervention via telehealth. A range of outcome measures was collected on three occasions (pre and post-intervention and one-month follow-up) to evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, and efficacy of FMBEAP via telehealth. Results: The results indicated that high and low-order behavioral excesses were significantly decreased in the post-test and follow-up stages. A total of 12 out of 14 children achieved recovery or high recovery at the end of the intervention. Also, parents reported a significant improvement in parenting self-efficacy. The program was acceptable to parents, evidenced by an 82.15 satisfaction rate and 86% attainment of session goals. Conclusion: These results suggest that telehealth can be used to implement FMBEAP with acceptable fidelity and to attain substantial reductions in behavioral excesses in children with ASD.},

title = {The Role of Emotional Granularity in Vulnerability to Post-traumatic Stress Disorder}, 
abstract ={Objective: Emotional granularity refers to the ability to recognize and distinguish between different emotional states, allowing individuals to respond appropriately to situations and manage their emotions more effectively. One of the main problems in post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is the lack of clarity and emotional awareness that causes vulnerability to PTSD and the persistence of its symptoms. The present study aims to investigate the role of emotional granularity in vulnerability to PTSD.  Methods: The present study used a descriptive and correlational research design. The statistical population included PTSD patients referred to Roozbeh Hospital. The sample size of the research was 205 people. To collect data, the Mississippi scale for PTSD, positive and negative affect schedule (PANAS), difficulties in emotion regulation scale, and semantic similarities test were used. Also, multiple regressions were used to analyze data using SPSS software, version 26. Results: The components of emotional granularity explain 32.7% of PTSD variance. Among the components of emotional granularity, the components of positive affect (β=-0.312), and semantic similarities (β=-0.379) had significant and inverse effects (P<0.01) on PTSD. Also, components of negative emotion (β=0.304), lack of emotional clarity (β=0.382), and lack of emotional awareness (β=0.362) had a significant and direct effect (P<0.01) on PTSD. Conclusion: Emotional granularity is one of the essential factors in predicting vulnerability to PTSD because high emotional granularity is associated with greater clarity, awareness, and emotional differentiation. Low emotional granularity is associated with a need for more differentiation and emotional clarity and as a result, expressing emotions in the form of vocabulary. },

abstract ={Objective: The present study examined the effectiveness of integrative couple therapy (ICT) in improving marital satisfaction and intimacy in incompatible couples.  Methods: The current research method was a quasi-experimental pre-test and post-test with an experimental and control group. The statistical population of the present study included all couples with marital discord which were referred to the counseling centers of Tabriz City, Iran in, 2023-2024. Among them, a sample of 40 couples with incompatible statuses was selected using the convenience sampling method and according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. They were randomly selected and assigned to the ICT group (n=20) and control group (n=20). Data collection tools included the Bagarozi marital intimacy questionnaire, Enrich marital satisfaction questionnaire, and ICT package. Univariate and multivariate variance analysis methods were used to check the hypotheses. Results: The results showed that ICT improves the components of marital satisfaction and the components of marital intimacy, and this difference was significant at the P<0.01 level.  Conclusion: Based on the obtained results, we conclude that ICT helps couples show their emotions, and in this way, they can change the rules that prevent them from establishing emotional relationships.},
