The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness and comparisons of Adler's Individual counseling with Ellis rational-emotional behavioral therapy on conduct disorder in the sixth grade elementary students of Maragheh city. In order to do this research, we selected 30 students, who’s scores were more than 35, according to the available sampling in the Conduct Disorder Questionnaire (RSDCD) and they were placed randomly in three Adler, Ellis, and control groups which each group had 10 participants. The independent variable for Adler and Ellis groups was conducted in eight 35-minutes sessions during three consecutive weeks. But the control group continued their normal course of study. The research method to Control group was semi-experimental, and pre or post-test type. The results of covariance analysis showed that in both Adler and Ellis groups in comparison with the control group, the severity of symptoms Conduct Disorder has been decreased, and the results of post hoc test (LSD), showed that the rate of conduct disorder in the Ellis group was less than the Adler and cotrolgroup, and the rate of conduct disorder in the Adler’s counseling group is lower than the control group. So, we can conclude that both Adler and Elise's methods are beneficial to reduce the symptoms of conduct disorder, but the effectiveness of Ellis's rational-emotional behavioral therapy is more than Adler's Individual counseling.

The purpose of the present study was to design and test a model of the relationships between individual (openness to experience and proactive behavior), group (proactive safety and team reflexivity) and organizational (organizational structure, transformational leadership and organizational climate) factors with organizational creativity considering the mediating role of creative self-efficacy and intrinsic motivation in employees of National Iranian South Oil Company (Aghagari District). The participants were 254 employees (male 241& female13) of Oil Company in Aghajari that selected by stratified random sampling method. The instruments were Neo- Five Factor Inventory(NEO-FFI), proactive personality scale(PPS), team climate inventory(TCI), team reflectivity questionnaire (TRQ), transformational leadership scale (GTL), creative climate questionnaire (CCQ), creative self-efficacy scale (CSE), intrinsic motivation inventory (IMI) and employee creativity questionnaire (ECQ). The proposed model was examined through structural equation model (SEM). Results showed that the direct paths from proactive personality to creative self-efficacy, organizational structure to organizational creativity, openness to organizational creativity, team reflectivity to organizational creativity, transformational leadership to organizational creativity and organizational climate to organizational creativity were non-significant. The indirect relationships were tested using bootstrapping procedure in Preacher and Hayes Macro command. After omitting non-significant paths, the model fitted the data properly and all indirect effects were significant.
