A total of 507 students from the universities in Tehran participated in the study. Participants completed the Farsi version of metacognitive beliefs questionnaire (MCQ-30), five factors mindfulness questionnaire (FFMQ), emotion regulation questionnaire (CERQ), and generalized anxiety disorder questionnaire (GAD-7). The results demonstrated that there was a positive significant association between metacognitive beliefs about worry and generalized anxiety symptoms. Furthermore there was a negative significant association between metacognitive beliefs and mindfulness, also between mindfulness and generalized anxiety symptoms; however the relationship between reappraisal and metacognitive beliefs, and the relationship between reappraisal and generalized anxiety symptoms was not significant. So mindfulness was the only strategy with significant mediating role between metacognitive beliefs and generalized anxiety symptoms. Therefore, considering these emotion regulation strategies can result in better understanding of anxiety symptoms and more effective treatments.The purpose of the present study is to examine the mediating role of emotion dysregulation of reappraisal and mindfulness strategies on the relationship between metacognitive beliefs and generalized anxiety symptoms.

The results of this study show the effectiveness of cognitive therapy based on admission and commitment in improving the incoherent beliefs of people with social anxiety due to the role of regulating emotional moderators.https://psychologyj.tabrizu.ac.ir/article_13015_9f5a1e0a5dfd55a69e16cf4a84a750f1.pdfUniversity of TabrizJournal of Modern Psychological Researches2322-3340176520220522Investigation of Rapee and Heimberg Cognitive Model in Explaining Shyness Using Structural Equation ModelingInvestigation of Rapee and Heimberg Cognitive Model in Explaining Shyness Using Structural Equation Modeling1071161329710.22034/jmpr.2022.13297FAMohamad JavadRanjbarPh.D. in Psychology, Department of Psychology, University of Mohaghegh Ardabili, Ardabil, Iran.FaezeGholamiM.A. in Clinical Psychology, University of Mohaghegh Ardabili, Ardabil, Iran.AbbasAbolghasemiProffessor, Department of Psychology, University of Guilan, Rasht, Iran.Journal Article20210423The aim of the present investigation is to study the cognitive model of Rapee and Heimberg in explaining shyness. In the same vein, the mediating role of fear of negative evaluation and social-physique anxiety in the relationship between body image and Self-Focused Attention with shyness was investigated. Statistical population included all students studying at Mohaghegh Ardabili University in 2019-2020, among them, 222 people were selected using multi-stage cluster sampling. Data were collected using the Focus of attention questionnaire, Fear of Negative Evaluation Scale, Social physique anxiety scale, Cheeck-Briggs Shyness scale, and Body Image Rating Scale. Data were analyzed using structural equation modeling. The results revealed that that the variables of fear of negative evaluation and social-physique anxiety play a mediating role in the relationship between body image and focus of attention with shyness. In the face of social situations, a kind of mental representation of appearance is formed in the person that becomes the focus of attention, also attention is paid to the negative evaluation of others, and finally the anxiety caused by these two sources increases shyness, in other words, the cognitive processes of Rapee and Heimberg conceptual model of social anxiety also play a role in explaining shyness.The aim of the present investigation is to study the cognitive model of Rapee and Heimberg in explaining shyness.

In Iran, this phenomenon is like a lost child who needs to be found. Therefore, the aim of this study is to find components of marital intimacy in long-term marriages. This study was conducted qualitatively with grounded theory approach. Information, until data saturation is reached, was obtained through semi-structured interviews with 11 intimate couples who were selected in a purposive and criterion-based manner. The obtained data were analyzed through open, axial and selective coding. Data analysis led to a key subject titled “marital intimacy: an process from the inside out” which its framework included twelve components of “effective personality”, “differentiation”, “secure marital attachment”, “pleasant marital cohabitation”, “family-religious teachings”, “intellectual maturity”, “conscious marriage”, “socio-economic issues”, “children and transition to parenthood”, “constructive couple interactions”, “instrumental and emotional support of the spouse”, and “improving the quality of marital life”. The results of this study help many educational and medical centers to develop training packages and necessary programs for couples and families, taking into account the identified factors. In addition, educating couples about these factors will prevent the breakdown and severance of marital relations and increase happiness and quality of marital life.Marital intimacy is the cause of couples bonding and improving the quality of marital life and its absence or diminution is a key factor in a couple's tendency to separate.

The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of the choice theory approach and acceptance and commitment approach on emotional processing, self-differentiation, body image and body fat mass index (FMI) in overweight women. The method was quasi-experimental with three-group pretest-posttest design. The statistical population consisted of all overweight women in Tehran who referred to Tehran health centers in the first half of the year 1400 (N = 2417). Among them, several centers were randomly selected and from the selected centers, 36 people were selected based on the inclusion criteria and were randomly assigned to the three groups of Experiment 1, Experiment 2 and Control. The first experimental group received the intervention based on choice theory with Glasser (2010) approach in 12 sessions of 60 minutes, the second experimental group received acceptance and commitment therapy with Hayes et al (2013) approach in 12 60-minute sessions. The research instruments were Baker et al.'s (2010) Emotional Processing Scale, Tetleton et al.'s (2005) Tetris Questionnaire of Body Image. Data were analyzed by multivariate analysis of covariance and LSD post hoc test by SPSS25 software. The results showed that there was a significant difference between the experimental and control groups in the dimensions of repression, unpleasant emotional experience, emotional symptoms of processing, avoidance, emotional control, dissatisfaction and embarrassment of their appearance and body fat mass index.

The current state of addressing the brain curriculum is not appropriate in these books, and it is suggested that the content of the tutorial guidebooks be reviewed in this period, and we need to pay more attention to the principles of physiological involvement, interpersonal experiences and the unique nature of the brain, or individual differences in learning.https://psychologyj.tabrizu.ac.ir/article_15078_86e2fe9ae3cc4a9b13268a61cdaa785f.pdfUniversity of TabrizJournal of Modern Psychological Researches2322-3340176520220522Effectiveness of Islamic Life Skills Train on Educational Vivacity of StudentsEffectiveness of Islamic Life Skills Train on Educational Vivacity of Students3093171346510.22034/jmpr.2022.13465FATourajHashemi NosratabadProfessor, Department of Psychology, Faculty of Education and Psychology, University of Tabriz, Tabriz, Iran.RahimBadri GargariProfessor, Department of Educational Psychology, Faculty of Education and Psychology, University of Tabriz, Tabriz, Iran.MansourBayramiProfessor, Department of Psychology, Faculty of Education and Psychology, University of Tabriz, Tabriz, Iran.AhadRoohani MajdPhD student of Educational Psychology, Department of Psychology, Faculty of Education and Psychology, University of Tabriz, Tabriz, Iran.Journal Article20190928Background and objective: educational vivacity is one of the objective of educational systems and Islamic life skills training is known as important factor on mental health and compatibility of individual in confrontation with problems in educational life.
