Introduction: Evidence suggests that emotion regulation plays a key role in pain disorders long-term compatibility. The present study was carried out to examine the mediating role of emotion regulation strategies on the relationship between pain intensity and quality of life (QOL). Method: In this study, one hundred and twenty patients with chronic pain (32 males, 88 females) were asked to complete the short form of quality of life Questionnaires (SF-36), Emotion Regulation Questionnaires, and Multidimensional pain Questionnaires. The data were analyzed using correlation coefficient, regression analysis, and path analysis. Results: It was shown that reappraisal had significantly negative association with pain intensity and positive association with quality of life and suppression had significantly positive association with pain intensity and negative association with quality of life. Also, pain intensity was negatively correlated with quality of life. Furthermore, results showed that emotion regulation strategies played a mediating role on the relationship between pain intensity and QOL.Conclusion: Despite the direct and negative relation between pain intensity and QOL, variability of pain intensity determined indirectly the level of quality of life in patients with chronic pain by mediating emotion regulation strategies.

Objective: The emergence of chronic diseases such as Parkinson seriously damages the patients’ psychological health besides physical health. Therefore, the present study was conducted with the purpose of investigating effectiveness of the package of hope therapy based on positivist approach on Self-efficacy and loneliness of patients with Parkinson. Method: The present study was quasi-experimental with pretest, posttest, control group and two-month follow-up period. The statistical population of the present study included the people with Parkinson in the city of Isfahan in the winter of 2018-19. 40 patients with Parkinson were selected through non-random available sampling and were randomly replaced into experimental and control groups (20 patients in the experimental group and 20 in the control group). The experimental group received training intervention of hope therapy based on positivist approach in ten ninety-minute sessions during three months. The applied questionnaires in this study included Self-efficacy (Sherer and Adams, 1994) and loneliness questionnaire (Russell, 1996). The data from the study were analyzed through repeated measurement ANOVA. Findings: The results showed that the training package of hope therapy based on positivist approach has significant effect on Self-efficacy and loneliness of Parkinson patients (p<0/001). However, this effect on the follow-up was also maintained. Conclusion: The findings of the present study showed that training package of hope therapy based on positivist approach can lead to the improvement of Self-efficacy and loneliness of Parkinson patients due to enjoying the methods of hope therapy and positivist psychotherapy.

Objective: Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are among the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide, posing significant challenges to public health systems and individuals' well-being. While medical treatments have advanced, there is growing recognition of the importance of psychological factors in influencing the course and outcomes of CVDs. Among these factors, personality traits and anxiety have gained attention for their potential impact on quality of life (QoL) and general health outcomes in cardiovascular patients. Personality type D, characterized by a combination of negative affectivity and social inhibition, has been identified as a relevant personality construct in cardiovascular health research. Individuals with Type D personality traits may experience heightened psychological distress and engage in maladaptive coping strategies, potentially exacerbating the burden of CVDs. Additionally, generalized anxiety, commonly observed in cardiovascular patients, has been associated with adverse health outcomes, including decreased treatment adherence and impaired QoL. Despite increasing recognition of the importance of personality and anxiety in cardiovascular health, there remains a need to understand the mechanisms through which these factors influence patient outcomes. This study aims to investigate the mediating role of generalized anxiety in the relationship between personality type D and QoL and general health in cardiovascular patients. By exploring these relationships, we aim to enhance our understanding of the psychological pathways underlying the impact of personality on cardiovascular health outcomes, with implications for tailored interventions to improve patient well-being and treatment outcomes. This study aimed to explore the mediating role of generalized anxiety in the relationship between Type D personality, QoL, and general health among cardiovascular patients. Method: This study adopted a fundamental research approach, employing a descriptive and correlational design with structural equation modeling (SEM). The study population consisted of all cardiovascular patients in Mashhad, Iran, during the year 2019. A convenience sampling method utilized to recruit a sample of 180 patients from cardiovascular clinics in Mashhad. Data collected using standardized instruments, including the D-Denolt (2007) personality type questionnaire, the World Health Organization Quality of Life assessment (WHOQOL), and the Generalized Anxiety Inventory developed by Goldberg & Hiller (1972) and Spitzer et al. (2006). Descriptive statistics such as frequency, percentage, mean, and standard deviation utilized for data analysis at the descriptive level, while inferential analyses employed Pearson correlation and structural equation tests. Results: The results of the study revealed significant associations between Type D personality, generalized anxiety, QoL, and general health among cardiovascular patients. Type D personality demonstrated a significant positive relationship with generalized anxiety (p < 0.001), indicating that individuals with Type D personality traits experienced heightened levels of anxiety. Additionally, Type D personality inversely associated with QoL (p < 0.001) and general health (p < 0.001), suggesting that individuals with Type D personality traits reported lower levels of QoL and general health status. Furthermore, generalized anxiety exhibited significant negative correlations with both QoL (p < 0.001) and general health (p < 0.001), indicating that increased levels of anxiety associated with poorer QoL and general health outcomes among cardiovascular patients. Moreover, path analysis techniques revealed that generalized anxiety played a mediating role in the relationship between Type D personality, QoL and general health outcomes (p < 0.05). This suggests that the presence of generalized anxiety partially explained the adverse effects of Type D personality on health-related outcomes in cardiovascular patients. Conclusion: In conclusion, this study provides valuable insights into the complex interplay between personality traits, mental health factors, and health outcomes in cardiovascular patients. The findings underscore the importance of considering psychological factors, such as Type D personality and generalized anxiety, in the assessment and management of CVDs. Interventions aimed at addressing anxiety management and maladaptive personality traits may hold promise in improving QoL and general health outcomes among cardiovascular patients. By elucidating the mediating role of generalized anxiety, this study contributes to a deeper understanding of the psychological mechanisms underlying health outcomes in CVDs, thereby informing holistic approaches to patient care and management
