Abstract The purpose of the present research is to justify the recurrence of infections in women due to marital conflicts based on the concepts of the systemic approach (especially triangulation). For this purpose, semi-structured interviews were conducted on women who had visited the treatment center several times for the treatment of infection and had relapsed despite taking medication. The interview questions were extracted and adjusted from the McMaster Clinical Rating Scale (MCRS) and the Beavers Questionnaire (SFI-) and the Standard Family Clinical Interview (SCFI). The number of interviews reached saturation in 15 cases. The methodology of this research was qualitative and the data were analyzed using the thematic analysis technique, based on the concepts of the systemic approach. The sampling method was purposeful and the samples were selected from among those who had referred to the treatment center for the treatment of infection and met the entry criteria and were interviewed. In this research, the author found eleven triangles. Based on other results of this research, an infection triangle has been formed. Marital conflicts are an important factor in creating family stress. Stress reduces the body's defense system, and this can be a factor in causing vaginal infections (vaginitis). Finally, based on the findings of this research, infection itself forms a triangle that reduces anxiety, and based on the concepts of the systemic approach, this becomes the reason for the recurrence of infection.

Abstract Children's behavioral problems such as aggression can cause serious damage to children's social interactions. The present study was conducted in order to investigate the effectiveness of play therapy based on cognitive behavioral model and behavioral problems and social skills of aggressive primary school children in boys' primary schools in district 16 of Tehran. This research was a semi-experimental study with a pre-test and post-test design and a control group. In this research, 30 boys aged 7-11 with aggressive behavior participated, who were selected by available sampling method from elementary schools in the 16th district of Tehran. The subjects were divided into two groups of 15 people, experimental and control. The experimental group received game therapy based on cognitive behavioral model in 12 sessions. While the control group was not given this test. The tools used in this research were Rutter's Behavioral Problems Questionnaire-Parent Form (1975) and Gresham Valiot's Social Skills Rating Scale (1990). Parents completed the Rutter and Melman Behavioral Problems Questionnaire and the Gresham Valiot Social Skills Rating Scale for the subjects in the pre-test and post-test phases. The information obtained from the questionnaire before and after the intervention was analyzed using multivariate covariance analysis and spss software version 23. At first, the assumptions of normality and homogeneity of variance and covariance of the variables were evaluated. Kolmogorov Smirnov test indicated that all variables are normal (p < 0.05). Box test also confirmed the assumption of homogeneity of variance, covariance and covariance; Therefore, the assumptions of the statistical test showed multivariate covariance analysis. Play therapy based on cognitive behavioral model has a significant effect on behavioral problems and social skills of aggressive children (p<0.0001).

Abstract Violence against women has a long history in the world. The aim of the current research was to identify the types of violence against women in the city and the countryside. The design of this research was descriptive and comparative. The statistical population of the present study includes urban and rural women of Khuzestan province, 150 of whom (75 urban women and 75 rural women) were selected using available sampling method and from the questionnaire of domestic violence against women (Dr. Tabrizi et al., 2013) to collect Data was used. The collected data were analyzed using spss-23 software. The results of multivariate variance analysis showed that there is no significant difference between the types of violence (psychological, physical, sexual and financial and social deprivation) between urban and rural women. Also, the results showed that there is a significant relationship between age, education level and the level of violence against women.

Abstract The present study was conducted with the aim of investigating the relationship between personality traits and metacognitive beliefs, taking into account gender differences in adolescents. The research method was a correlational description. The statistical population of this research included all male and female students aged 12 to 18 attending schools in Tehran province in the academic year of 1996-1997. The sample size consisted of 300 adolescent students who were divided into two groups (considering gender), 150 female students and 150 male students, using available sampling method and according to The criteria for entering and exiting the research were selected. These students responded to the research tools, including the questionnaire of five big personality factors of children and adolescents (Barbaranelli et al., 2003) and the questionnaire of metacognitive beliefs (Wells et al., 2003). Correlation statistical method was used to analyze the obtained data. The findings of this research indicated that there is generally a relationship between the personality traits of boys and girls and their metacognitive beliefs. Also, the relationship between personality traits and metacognitive beliefs is different in boys and girls. Considering the importance of metacognitive beliefs, especially during adolescence, which is a sensitive period, knowing and examining the factors that can affect these relationships, and one of them is personality traits, can lead to improvement and change. negative characteristics in the adolescent's personality can lead to the provision of treatment strategies.

Abstract The purpose of the current research is to investigate the fit of the psychological well-being model with regard to mindfulness and sense of responsibility in students. The research community consists of male and female high school students of Tehran's 9th district. For this purpose, 250 students were selected by multi-stage cluster sampling method. Five-faceted mindfulness questionnaire (FFMQ), Riff psychological well-being questionnaire, and Nemati's responsibility questionnaire were used to collect data. Research data was evaluated using path analysis method with Amos software. The proposed model was tested based on the research questions. The obtained results showed that the model has a good fit after a series of corrections. The findings showed that accountability has a significant effect on psychological well-being. Also, the conscious mind has a significant effect on psychological well-being. This research is an important step to know the factors affecting psychological well-being.

Abstract This study was conducted in order to determine the relationship between academic burnout and academic injuries, academic performance and intelligence. The research method in this study was descriptive and correlational. The research sample consisted of 150 first-year female students of Shahrekord high school who were selected by multi-stage cluster random sampling method. The research tools were: academic burnout questionnaire, academic injuries, Raven's intelligence (adult form) and their GPA was also considered as an indicator of their academic performance. The data was analyzed by stepwise correlation and regression statistical method. The results showed that injuries related to academic habits and injuries related to academic preparation significantly predict academic burnout. Also, emotional exhaustion (the first dimension of academic burnout) is predicted by damage related to academic habits. Pessimism towards education (the second dimension of academic burnout) is predicted by two variables: harms related to academic habits and mental and emotional harms related to education. Academic ineffectiveness (the third dimension of academic burnout) is predicted by two variables: harms related to academic preparation and harms related to academic habits. According to these findings, it can be said that wrong academic habits, lack of academic preparation, and emotional and mental problems related to education are among the factors that cause academic burnout. Therefore, guidance and counseling of students in order to overcome bad academic habits, planning to increase preparation skills for transitioning from middle school to high school, and finally planning to reduce the emotional and mental problems of female students in the first year of high school are suggested.
