The main purpose of this research was to study the effect of Cognitive Emotion Regulation on styles of decision-making style with considering Mediating role of self-reflection and insight. The study was correlational and population included all employees of Parsian Gas Refining Company (working there, in winter 1396). Of which, 178 people were selected through Stratified random sampling sampling method. Research instruments consisted of Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire by Garnefski and et al (2002), Self-reflection and Insight scale by Grant and et al (2002) and Decision Making Styles Questionnaire by Scotte and Bruce (1995) . Data were analyzed with use of Structural Equation Model (SEM) through AMOS-16 and SPSS-16 software packages. Analysis of structural equation modeling indicated that default model fit for data. The results also showed that effective strategies of emotional regulation, both directly and through self-reflection and insight, affect the effective decision making style . Hence, organizations can not only reduce decision-making errors by employing appropriate strategies to regulate and manage the emotions of their employees, but also reduce work accidents..

The present study aimed to investigate the effects of training in safety riding program on motorcycle rider risk perception and concerns. The research method was quasi-experimental, pretest-posttest and follow-up, with control group. The sample included all motorcycle drivers of city of Babel. Using simple random sampling, 60 randomly selected riders were assigned to experimental and control groups (30 each). Participants completed the Risk Perception Questionnaire. Safety riding training program was administered to experimental group for eight weeks, 16 sessions and 32 hours, but the control group received no training. The analysis of variance with repeated measures was used to analyze the data. The results showed that there are significant differences in risk perception and concern scores of motorcycle riders at post-test and follow-up of experimental group (p<0/0001). This difference was not observed in the control group scores. The results show that, safety riding training program increase the risk perception of the motorcycle riders.

To date, there is substantial co-relational evidence supporting the link between negative interpretations of intrusive thoughts and obsessive compulsive symptoms. The main objective of this study was to investigate the efficacy of cognitive bias modification-interpretation in reducing the severity of symptoms, beliefs, and obsessional behaviors. For this purpose a sample of 60 students was selected with the symptoms of this disorder. The research design was an experimental pretest-posttest design with a control group. All the participants completed three questionnaires: the Moudsely Obsessive-Compulsive Inventory, the Yale-Brown Obsessive-Compulsive Scale and the Obsessional Beliefs Questionnaire. Results of a multivariate analysis of variance on the difference between pre-test and post-test scores showed that the cognitive bias modification-interpretation decreases the intensity symptoms, beliefs and obsessional behaviors, and the efficacy of the combination of cognitive bias modification-interpretation with group cognitive behavior therapy in reducing the severity of symptoms, beliefs and obsessional behaviors is more than cognitive bias modification-interpretation. With regard to this finding we can propose therapists to use cognitive bias modification-interpretation and its combination with group cognitive behavior therapy as a new, easy to use and effective approach in obsessive compulsive disorder therapy.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship of personality traits with students achievement motivation. To this end, 350 students were selected by multi-stage random sampling method, and the research questionnaires, NEO Inventory and Achievement Motivation Questionnaire, were completed by them. The findings showed a significant positive relationship between personality traits of extraversion, openness to experience, agreeableness, of conscientiousness and achievement motivation. In addition, neuroticism was negatively correlated with achievement motivation. Regression analysis showed that there is a significant multiple correlations between personality traits and achievement motivation. Conscientiousness positively and neuroticism negatively predicted achievement motivation.
