Objective: Migraine is a profoundly debilitating condition that psychological variables can affect it. The aim of this study was to investigate the mediating role of coping styles and perceived social support in the relationship between temperament and character dimensions and psychological well-being in people with migraine. Method: This study was a correlational study. The statistical population included all people with migraine in Rasht in 1398 who referred to a neurologist. The sample consisted of 432 people (276 female and 156 male) who were selected by available sampling method. Instruments used in this study included the temperament and character inventory (TCI-56), psychological well-being scale (PWB), coping responses inventory (CRI), and multidimensional scale of perceived social support (MSPSS). Findings: Path analysis showed that the psychological well-being in people with migraine is influenced by temperament and character dimensions, coping styles and perceived social support. Also, the mediating role of coping styles and perceived social support in the relationship between temperament and character dimensions and psychological well-being was confirmed. To evaluate the model, CFI (0.91), GFI (0.93), NFI (0.91), and RMSEA (0.07) indices were used and the proposed model fit well with the data. Conclusion: Psychological factors play a role in the psychological well-being of people with migraines. Therefore, identifying these variables could have important implications for psychological migraine treatments.

Objective: Blood cancer is the fifth common cancer in adults that can be threatening. The aim of this study was to predict the Post Traumatic Growth based on gratitude and social support in women with blood cancer. Methods: The research design was correlational with a predictive aim based on regression method. 82 women with blood cancer were recruited from both inpatients and outpatients’ settings in Namazi hospital and Mottahari clinic using convenient sampling procedure. Measures were Posttraumatic Growth Inventory (Tedeschi and Calhoun, 1996), the Gratitude Questionnaire (Goodarzi, Noori & Marzooghi, 1393) and Perceived Social Support Questionnaire (Zimet, Dahlem, Zimet & Farley, 1988). Findings gratitude and social support were significantly correlated with Post Traumatic Growth and prediction was also significant. Conclusion:it can be concluded that promoting gratitude in these patients and providing social support for them might contribute to Post Traumatic Growth.

In this study, data gathered 89 patients selected during 13 months visits to Shariati Hospital in 2017 via census procedure by three questionnaire of life orientation, quality of life (SF-36) and Fleming & et al perceived social support.Result: as the results showed, the value of F for orientation of life was 0.01 and for quality of life and social support 0.05 were meaningful. On the other words, patients with myeloid leukemia are more optimistic in comparison with lymphocytic leukemia patients. myeloid leukemia patients are better in family support, body function, energy, tiredness, social function, pain, general health and emotional wellbeing.Conclusion: Overall, the results showed that there was a significant difference between the two groups in terms of optimism regarding life orientation and dimensions of physical function, energy/ fatigue, social function, pain, general health and emotional well-being of quality of life and perceived social support of the family. And the type of disease can be effective in psychosocial factors, therefore, should be considered.

Objective: This study examined the mediating effect of psychological resilience on the relationship between cognitive appraisal processes and perceived social support with health behaviors and emotional well-being. Method: In a sample consisting of 409 boy adolescents, the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Special Support (MSPSS), the Stress Appraisal Measure-Revised (SAM-R), Adolescent Resilience Scale (ARS), Health-Promoting Lifestyle Profile-II (HPLP-II) and the Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS) were administered. Structural equation modeling was used to assess the mediating effects model of psychological resilience on the relationship between cognitive appraisal processes and perceived social support with health behaviors and emotional well-being. Results: Results showed that the complete mediated model of psychological resilience on the relationship between cognitive appraisal processes and perceived social support and health behaviors and emotional well-being had a good fit to data. Furthermore, all of the regression weights in the hypothesized model were statistically significant and the psychological resilience variable accounted for 25%, 12% and 11% of the variance in health behavior, positive affect, and negative affect, respectively. Conclusion: In sum, these findings show that the part of the available variance in health behaviors and subjective well-being in the context of prediction these behavioral and emotional models by cognitive appraisals and perceived social support accounted for adolescents' psychological resilience.
