The sample consisted of 137 elementary students (53 girls and 84 boys) recruited from fourth and fifth grades, and were categorized into two groups of aggressive and withdrawn based on assessments. They were given the Draw A Story test (DAS). According to the results, the differences between the two groups were significant for self image (p<.04) and non significant for the emotional content of DAS. The aggressive group showed stronger self image in comparison to the other group. Aggressive boys showed a stronger self image while the withdrawn children showed a weaker self image (p<.04). Aggressive and withdrawn girls had higher mean scores in the emotional content than boys, whereas the aggressive boys showed a weaker emotional content (p<.02). The range of positive to negative response frequencies were significantly different for both groups and both groups had the highest response frequency in emotional content in the range of moderately negative. The range of self image response frequencies in the aggressive group was significantly different and positive response had the highest frequency. The range of self image response frequencies in the withdrawn children was significantly different, and the unpleasant and negative responses had the highest frequency. Content analysis of the aggressive stories showed a high engagement ratio of aggression components with the highest frequency of murdering and killing imageries, while in the withdrawn children content analysis indicated the high engagement ratio with the highest frequency of components such as loneliness, fear and anxiety. These results indicate that Draw a Story Test is a valid instrument for discriminating aggressive and withdrawn children from normal subjects.

Participants were 341 high school students (170 boys & 171 girls) in Lordegan city who were randomly selected. All participants were asked to complete the Frydenberg & Lewis Adolescent Coping Scale, Beck Depression Scale, and the demographic researcher made questionnaire. The results showed that girls' mean depression scores was higher than that of boys. Problem focused and emotion focused coping styles were negatively correlated to depression (p < 0.001). The correlation between boys’ non productive coping styles and their depression was not significant. The results of the study revealed that problem focused coping style and emotion focused coping style, but not non productive coping style predicted depression. These results suggest that using problem focused coping style and emotion focused coping style is associated with decrease in adolescents' depression.

The sample consisted of 300 (166 females and 134 males) Ilam University students who selected by cluster sampling method. The participants completed the Meta-Cognations Questionnaire-30 (MCQ-30) and Social Phobia Inventory (SPIN). The results showed that meta-cognitive beliefs were positively correlated with social anxiety symptoms (P<0.05). Also, the results of regression analysis of MCQ-30 subscales showed that uncontrollability danger and cognitive self– consciousness are predictors of avoidance, negative beliefs about uncontrollability of thought and danger are predictors of fear, negative beliefs about uncontrollability of thought and danger and positive beliefs about worry and cognitive security are predictors of physiological arousal. These were the significant predictors of social anxiety symptoms (P≤0.05). Results of this study support the meta- cognitive Wells and Matthew's model of social anxiety and indicates that meta-cognitive beliefs have an important role in social anxiety symptoms. Therefore, the modification of meta- cognitive beliefs with regard to the importance of their role in avoidance, fear and physiological arousal, can be a preventative factor in intensification and continuity of social anxiety symptoms.

The
purpose of this study was to examine the effect of transactional analysis
training on love styles of couples in Khoram- abad. It was a quasi-experimental
design with pre and post-tests and a control group. The population was the
couples who referred to counseling centers in Khoram- abad in 2008-2009. The
sample consisted of 30 couples (60 persons) who were randomly selected, and
assigned to two experimental and control groups. The couples in the
experimental group received transactional analysis training, and at the end,
both groups took a post-test. Leeâs love styles questionnaire was used as the
measuring instrument. The results of analysis of covariance showed that
transactional analysis training significantly affected eros, storge, pragma,
mania and agape love styles (p0.05). Therefore, it can be concluded that
transactional analysis training seems to be able to improve eros, storge,
pragma, mania and agape love styles of the couples.

In this study, behavioral inhibition, behavioral activation system, difficulties in emotion regulation and metacognition were examined as predictive variables. In a correlation cross-sectional design, 234 Medical Group students [BA and MA] of Tehran University of Medical Sciences participated in this study by using cluster sampling. The students completed these scales: Behavioral Inhibition and Behavioral Activation Systems (BAS/BIS), Difficulty of Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS), Metacognition Questionnaire-30 (MCQ-30) and Penn State Worry Questionnaire (PSWQ). Behavioral inhibition system, difficulty of emotion rgulation and metacognition variables were significantly positively correlated with worry (P<0/0 1(. Behavioral activation system variable was not significantly associated with worry. Stepwise multiple regression analysis indicated a predictive model for worry in which behavioral inhibition system, difficulty of emotional regulation and metacognition were its components respectively.
