In terms of purpose, the current research was of an applied type, and in terms of method, based on the research design and method, it was quasi-experimental with a pre-test and post-test design (with an experimental group and a control group and a three-month follow-up period). The statistical population used in the current study included all couples who referred to family counseling and couple therapy centers in the 5th district of Tehran in 2011. Among these people, 40 people (20 couples) were selected using the purposeful sampling method and randomly assigned to an experimental group (20 people or 10 couples) and a control group (20 people or 10 couples).

It can be concluded that the independent variable (treatment based on acceptance and realistic commitment) has significantly changed the dependent variables (marital satisfaction and marital compatibility). Therefore, it can be concluded that the changes made in the dependent variables were due to the implementation of the treatment based on acceptance and realistic commitment on the experimental group. The results of the LSD post hoc test showed that these effects were stable. based on the available findings, it can be concluded that the therapy based on acceptance and realistic commitment was effective on marital satisfaction and marital compatibility of couples on the verge of divorce.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of the Friends training program on executive functioning and self-control of children with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder. In terms of the purpose, the current research was of an applied type, and in terms of the method, based on the research design and method, it was a semi-experimental with a pre-test and post-test design (with an experimental group and a control group and a three-month follow-up period). The statistical population used in the current study included all children with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder referred to child and adolescent psychotherapy centers in Tehran's 12th district in 2022. Among these people, 40 people were selected using the purposeful sampling method and randomly assigned to an experimental group (20 people) and a control group (20 people). Then, it was implemented on the experimental group of Barrett’s (1999) Friends training program. In order to collect data, the research tools included the executive behavior questionnaire of Gerard et al. (2010) and the self-control questionnaire of Tangney et al. (2004). The F-value and the significance of executive action variables (F = 10.15 and P = 0.001) and self-control (F = 8.62 and P = 0.001) were obtained. It can be concluded that the independent variable (Friends training program) has significantly changed the dependent variables (executive behavior and self-control). Therefore, it can be concluded that the changes made in the dependent variables were caused by the implementation of the Friends training program on the experimental group. Based on the findings, it can be concluded that the Friends training program was effective on executive behavior and self-control of children with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder. Therefore, it is suggested that experts benefit from the techniques of this approach in their work.

The purpose of this study was to Presenting Structural Model of Emotional Eating in People with Obesity based on self-regulation with the Mediating Role of Emotional processing. The research method is correlation using structural equation modeling. The statistical population of this study consisted of all people with obesity in Tehran in 1397, out of whom 378 were selected by stage sampling. Research tools were Emotional Eating Duch's (1986), self-regulation Carey & et al, (2004) and Emotional Processing Bakker et al.'s (2010) Questionnaire. Structural equation modeling was used to answer the research hypotheses. The results showed that there was a direct and negative effect between self-regulation and emotional eating. There is an indirect and positive effect between self-regulation and emotional processing. And there is an indirect and negative effect between emotional processing and emotional eating. Therefore, it can be concluded from the results that self-regulation affects emotional eating with the mediating role of emotional processing in obese people.

The research tools included the family resilience questionnaire of McCubbin et al (1986) and the marital satisfaction questionnaire of ENRICH. In order to statistically analyze the data, analysis of variance with repeated measurements and Bonferroni's post hoc test and version 26 of SPSS software were used.F and the significance level were calculated in the variables of marital satisfaction (F = 8.93 and P = 0.001) and family resilience (F = 8.10 and P = 0.001). It can be concluded that the independent variable (couple therapy with EIS model) has significantly changed the dependent variables (marital satisfaction and family resilience). Therefore, it can be concluded that the changes made in the dependent variables were due to the implementation of couple therapy with the EIS pattern on the experimental group. Also, the results of Bonferroni's post hoc test showed that these effects were stable.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of stress-based group therapy based on awareness-based strategies for emotion regulation and cognitive avoidance in female patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder. The research method was quasi-experimental with pre-test-post-test design with control group and quarterly follow-up. The statistical population included all female patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder who in 1400 had referred to counseling and help centers in Kermanshah. Among them, 30 people were selected by purposive sampling and randomly assigned to the same experimental and control groups. The experimental group received stress-based treatment intervention based on awareness attention as a group, once a week in 8 sessions of 90 minutes; the control group was placed on a waiting list. Gross and John emotion regulation questionnaires and Sexton and Dougas cognitive avoidance questionnaires were used to collect data. Findings from one-way analysis of variance in Mankova text showed that stress-based therapy based on awareness attention significantly reduces the scores of suppression and cognitive avoidance and significantly increases the scores of the cognitive reassessment component of the experimental group in the post-test phase. And has been followed up. Based on the research findings, it is suggested that in order to manage emotion regulation strategies and reduce cognitive avoidance of obsessive-compulsive patients, the results of group therapy based on stress reduction based on mindfulness as a modern psychotherapy in counseling centers and Benefited therapy.
