The present study aimed to determine the relationship between childhood maltreatment and mental health through the mediating role of experiential avoidance in girl students. The research method was descriptive-correlation and structural equation modeling. The statistical population included all-girl undergraduate students of Razi University of Kermanshah in the academic year 2019-2020, from which 366 students were selected as a sample group by multi-stage cluster sampling and were surveyed by Child Abuse Self-Report Scale (SASRS), Depression, Anxiety & Stress Scale (DASS-21), and Acceptance and Action Questionnaire-II (AAQ-II). Data were analyzed using Pearson correlation and path analysis using version 26 of SPSS and AMOS software. The results indicate a significant mediating role of experiential avoidance for the relationship between childhood maltreatment and depression (β: 0.22), anxiety (β: 0.12), and stress (0.17). According to the results of the present study, childhood maltreatment is the basis for using an experiential avoidance strategy, which leads to an increase in depression, anxiety, and stress in victims of childhood maltreatment.

The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between the fragility of happiness beliefs and the experienced happiness with the moderating role of optimism. 225 students of Shahid Bahonar University of Kerman participated in this survey. A multi-stage cluster sampling method was used to collect data, and the questionnaires were Optimism-Pessimistic, Fragility of Happiness and Subjective Happiness. Data were analyzed by Pearson correlation coefficient and multiple hierarchical regression analysis using SPSS-22 software. The results of the regression analysis showed that the fragility of happiness beliefs has a negative relationship with experienced happiness. In addition, optimism was able to moderate the relationship between the fragility of happiness beliefs and the experienced happiness. In other words, optimism reduced the relationship between the fragility of happiness beliefs and the experienced happiness. According to this, it is possible to reduce the relationship between the fragility of happiness beliefs and the experience of happiness in the students by improving their optimism.
