Objective: The aim of the present study was to predict complicated grief based on cognitive flexibility with the mediating role of cognitive regulation of emotion in survivors of the COVID-19.Method: This descriptive study was fundamental-applicative and correlation type with path analysis in terms of method. The statistical population included all the bereaved people who lost one of their close relatives or family members due to the corona virus since 2018 to 1400. Therefore 200 survivors and mourners formed the research sample.Three questionnaires included cognitive-emotional regulation by Garnevsky et al. (2009), cognitive flexibility by Dennis Vonderwall (2010), and grief experience by Barrett and Scott (1998) were used and completed online by the participants. SPSS-26 software was used to analyze statistical correlation relationships and Imus software version 24 was used to evaluate the achievement of the fitted model.Results: The results showed that the direct effect of cognitive flexibility with beta coefficient on compromised strategies is positive (Beta=0.655), and on uncompromised strategies (Beta=-0.628) and the experience of bereavement (Beta=-0.387) is negative and significant (P<01.1). Also, the direct effect of emotion-cognitive compromise strategies with the standard coefficient on bereavement experience (Beta=0.254) is positively significant and the adaptive cognitive strategies of emotion are negatively significant on the experience of bereavement (Beta=-0.327).The correlation coefficient between the variables showed that cognitive flexibility has a positive correlation with emotional cognitive strategies (r=0.66) and a negative correlation with bereavement experience (r=-0.75) and a negative correlation with non-compromised emotional cognitive strategies (P<0.1). In other words, as survivors' cognitive flexibility increases, their mourning decreases. Also, the experience of bereavement is more in the survivors who use non-compromised strategies of emotional cognition (r=0/66) and less in those who use compromised cognitive strategies of emotion (r=-0.71).The results of the Bootstrap test for indirect ways showed that the indirect way of cognitive flexibility to the experience of bereavement with the mediating role of cognitive regulation of uncompromising emotion has an effect size -0.14, as well as the indirect way of cognitive flexibility to the experience of bereavement with the mediating role of cognitive regulation of compromising emotion has an effect size-0.18, that is significant at the level of less than 0.05.Conclusion: Cognitive regulation of emotion has a mediating role between cognitive flexibility and bereavement experience of survivors. In general, the use of cognitive regulation of uncompromised emotion enhances the experience of bereavement and the use of cognitive regulation of compromised emotion reduces it. There is a significant negative relationship between cognitive flexibility and bereavement experience of corona survivors. There is a significant negative relationship between the dimensions of cognitive flexibility and the dimensions of uncompromising cognitive emotion regulation strategies of corona survivors. Also, cognitive flexibility has a significant effect on the complex grief of corona survivors through the mediating role of cognitive emotion regulation. In complicated grief caused by events such as Covid-19, various psychological and cognitive factors such as cognitive flexibility, cognitive regulation of emotion are involved, and psychotherapists, especially cognitive-behavioral therapists, should pay attention to these issues and focus on the positive factors influencing the reduction of complex bereavement and the treatment process.Due to the lack of funeral rituals and traditional mourning interactions which play an important role in facilitating the mourning process, the levels of resolving the painful emotions become more difficult. Greater flexibility will allow individuals to focus more on alternative ways of cognitive changes, therefore, in traumatic situations and psychological distress, they will have better control over their emotions.

Objective: Nursing is known to be a stressful profession that can lead to physical and psychological health issues and behavioural problems. In oncology, workload among nurses is believed to be increasing in conjunction with rapidly increasing numbers of patients with cancer and staff shortages worldwide, therefore it is essential to sustain a quality oncology nurse workforce. The main purpose of the present study was to investigate factorial structure of the Coping Inventory for Stressful Situations-Short Form (CISS-SF, Endler & Parker, 1999). Method: In this correlational study, a sample of 151 nurses of Tehran Medical Sciences University completed the Coping Inventory for Stressful Situations-Short Form (CISS-SF, Endler & Parker, 1999). The exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor statistics analysis methods were used to compute the CISS-SF's factor structure. Findings: Results of principal component analysis (PC) with varimax rotation replicated the four-factor structure of emotion-oriented coping style, task-oriented coping style and avoidance-oriented coping style (including avoidance behaviors of social diversion and distraction) in the sample. Goodness-of-fit indices of confirmatory factor analysis based AMOS Statistics software confirmed the 4 extracted factors (emotion-oriented coping style, task-oriented coping style and avoidance-oriented coping style including avoidance behaviors of social diversion and distraction). Cronbach alpha coefficients for emotion-oriented coping style, task-oriented coping style, social diversion and distraction were 0/83, 0/78, 0/77 and 0/77 respectively. Conclusion: These findings speak to the robustness of the CISS-SF, in revealing its relatively stable structure, and consequently, to its potential usefulness as a valid measure for assessing preferred coping style for stressful situations in Iranian nurses.

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: The theory of the relationship between self-esteem and the performance of a disorder is based on the fact that self-esteem can provide individuals with emotions with safety in the face of threats and threats. The purpose of this study was comparisons implicit self-esteem and explicit in those who performed nasal surgery with normal people. This was a cross-sectional research.Methods: The statistical population of the present study included all female infertility surgeons who referred to beauty centers of Rasht in spring 1397 and normal women. The community was selected through available sampling. 70 nose and 70 normal subjects were selected. The expression used in this research was the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES) and the Alphanumeric Scale (IPT). The mean scores indicate that women's ability to perform surgery is clear and insignificant in their self-esteem than ordinary ones.Findings: The results of multivariate analysis of variance showed that the ability of the two groups of subjects in the obvious and the subtle self-esteem is not the same and there is a significant difference between the two groups.Conclusion: Low self-esteem in individuals can be one of the reasons for the tendency of people to have a cosmetic surgery, so improving self-esteem can reduce the tendency for cosmetic surgery in the community.

AbstractBackground : the study of self esteem is one of the most common methods for studying individual differences in psychology.Acording the theory of the relationship between self-esteem and cardiovascular function ( Martinz , Greenberg, and Alan, 2008 ) self-esteem it can be related with feelings of safety in the encounter with threat and stress Objectives: The aim of the present study was to investigate the relationship between explicit and implicit self-esteem levels, with heart rate, systolic and diastolic blood pressure as index of cardiovascular Methods: This study was a correlative study on a sample of 320 subjects of university with random sampling. Explicit and implicit self-esteem of subjects measured entering to laboratory of university and then blood pressure and heart rate were measured. Results: The results of Spearman's correlation coefficient and regression analysis showed that btween explicit self-esteem and cardiovascular function parameters were significant negative (p>0/01) correlation in all three cases. Regression analysis of data showed that explicit and implicit self-esteem could significantly predict systolic blood pressure and heart rate. In both cases, implicit self -esteem are more predictive power than explicit self-esteem. Conclusion: In overall results showed that low self-esteem significantly can be predictive of high heart rate and blood pressure and otherwise, high self-esteem can be predictive of low heart rate and blood pressure.
