Objective: This study was conducted to determine the effectiveness of schema therapy on coping styles in rheumatoid arthritis patients. Method: The research method was semi-experimental with a pre-test-post-test and a control group design. The 30 patients with rheumatoid arthritis who met the study's inclusion criteria were selected by purposeful sampling and entered the study randomly. Schema therapy was performed based on the model of Rizzo et al. Descriptive statistics and inferential statistics indicators, including ANOVA with repeated measures, multivariate analysis of covariance, and one-way covariance in MANCOVA were used for data analysis. Findings: The effectiveness of schema therapy on the coping styles of patients with rheumatoid arthritis is stable. Comparing the pre-test-post-test and pre-test-follow-up stages showed a significant difference in all coping styles between the research groups. Also, the results showed a significant difference between the mean scores of problem-oriented, emotion-oriented, and avoidance coping styles. Conclusion: Performing schema therapy for rheumatoid arthritis patients can reduce the pain and suffering of these patients to some extent. It is suggested that in the policy of the country's health care system, plans be made to use schema therapy to reduce the pain of these patients.

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: 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.

The research method was correlation and the proposed model through structural equation modeling (SEM) were analyzed. To test the mediating effects bootstrap method was used. Results:The results showed positive and significant impact CAS on depression and anxiety symptoms. The findings revealed a significant negative impact problem-focused coping style on anxiety and depressive symptoms in patients. Emotion-focused coping had positive significant effect on symptoms of anxiety and depression.The mediating role of problem-focused and emotion-focused coping styles in the relationship between CAS with anxiety and depression were also confirmed.

Introduction: The aim of this study was to investigate the mediating role of the perceived support in predicting psychological distress based on emotional control and coping styles in the mothers of children with thalassemia. Method:The statistical population included the mothers of children with thalassemia in Tehran. The convenience sampling method was used to select 200 subjects as the sample.Results: The research evidence and the results of the confirmatory factor analysis indicated that the perceived support had the mediation role in predicting psychological distress, based on coping styles, but it didn’t have the mediation role in predicting psychological distress, based on emotional control. Also the perceived support had a significantly direct impact on psychological distress (-0.75). Emotional control had a significantly direct impact on psychological distress, too (0.36). The significantly direct impact of coping styles on psychological distress and the perceived support was 0.36; however, emotional control did not have a significantly direct impact on the perceived support. Conclusion: According to the research findings, it can be concluded that the perceived support, emotional control and coping styles influenced the psychological distress among the mothers of children with thalassemia. Therefore, training in these topics can help reduce the psychological distress among the mothers of children with Tallahassee.

Method: 331 students from Tehran university, were randomly selected using cluster sampling method. All participants filled out eating attitudes test (EAT-26), Ways of coping Questionnaire (WOCQ) and Five Factor Personality Inventory (NEO-FFI). Length, weight and body mass index were measured. Data were analyzed using Pearson correlation coefficient, and multivariate regression. Results: The results revealed significant correlations between eating- disordered behaviors and Emotion-oriented coping, Task-orientated coping, agreeableness, neuroticism and Conscientiousness Personality traits. Multivariate regression data revealed that Emotion-oriented coping, Conscientiousness and agreeableness Personality traits might explain 17.5% of eating- disordered behaviors variance. Conclusion: Findings suggested that individuals develop eating-disordered behaviors as a means of encounter with problems, resulting on interaction between coping styles and personality traits
