The present study aimed to compare the effectiveness of teen-centric mindfulness education with emotion regulation education on aggression and anxiety in adolescent girls with type II bipolar disorder. The study employed a pre-test, post-test and follow-up quasi-experimental research design. The participants consisted of all adolescent girls with type II bipolar disorder who referred to Al-Zahra hospital of Isfahan. A total of 45 girls with type II bipolar disorder were selected using voluntary sampling method and based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. They were randomly divided into two experimental and one control group (each group was 15 participants). The participants responded to Eysenck and Glenn Wilson's Aggression Questionnaire and Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI) before and after the intervention and 45 days later in the follow-up phase. One of the experimental groups was treated with Bordic-Package Teen-Centric Mindfulness, and the other underwent Grass Emotion regulation teaching. The results indicated that teen-centric mindfulness training and emotion regulation education were effective on decreasing aggression and anxiety in adolescent girls with type II bipolar disorder in post-test and follow up stages. Teen-centric mindfulness education was more effective than emotion regulation education (P<0.001). Therefore, the results can be used to reduce aggression and anxiety in adolescent girls with type II bipolar disorder.

Introduction: Intermittent explosive disorder appears in the social context and in response to social stimuli. Probably, processing social stimuli and responding to them in different social contexts, has an important role in this disorder and Affects its symptoms. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy on social cognition in adolescents with intermittent explosive disorder.Method: The present study is a field experiment with pretest-posttest design. The number of 38 students with intermittent explosive disorder were selected through Targeted sampling and They were randomly assigned to experimental and control groups. The two groups at the beginning and the end of the study responded to the questionnaire for screening of intermittent explosive disorder and social stories. During the ten sessions, the experiment group came under the intervention of behavioral cognitive therapy every week.Findings: the results of ANCOVA analysis showed that behavioral cognitive therapy was effective on improving social cognition and reducing the symptoms of intermittent explosive disorder. Behavioral cognitive therapy has been effective on improving the steps of encoding signs, representing and interpreting information, and choosing response. But there was no effect on the steps involved in clarifying the objectives and in finding possible answers.Result: It seems that by using Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy and generalizing them to various social tissues, it is possible to improve the social cognition of people with Intermittent explosive disorder that act as an inhibitory capacity to prevent the symptoms of this disorder in social tissues.

Research findings show that adolescent girls are susceptible to develop various forms of eating behaviors, because they are sensitive to challenges related to size, shape and physical appearance. This study aimed to investigate the role of shame, self-Compassion and intolerance of uncertainty in pathology of eating Attitudes among female students. This study was descriptive and correlational and the statistical society of the study included all third year high school female students in Birjand in the academic year of 1395-1396. Given to the society volume and on the basis of krejcie-morgan sample size table, sample volume was assessed 259. data was collected by Body-image shame scale (Duarte et al, 2015), Other as shamer scale (Matos et al, 2015), short form of the Self-compassion scale (Raes et al, 2011), Intolerance of uncertainty scale (Carleton et al, 2007) and Eating attitude test (Garner et al, 1979). In order to examine the research hypotheses, multiple regression analysis was used. Multiple regression analysis showed that body-image shame, adaptive self-compassion and Shame from others predict eating Attitudes, but maladaptive self-compassion and Intolerance of Uncertainty did not play a role in explaining this relationship. These findings emphasize on the facilitating role of self-compassion abilities and pathogenic effects of shame in pathology of eating Attitudes.

Thirty female primary school fifth graders took part in this study, which was carried out in 2016-17 academic year in Babolsar, Iran. Based on the results of the Colorado Learning Difficulties Questionnaire (CLDQ) and the participants' IQ scores, 15 participants were randomly assigned to the experimental group and 15 to the control group. The experimental group went through reality therapy group counseling for 8 sessions. The instruments used in the current study included the CLDQ, the second edition of Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children, and the Academic Self-Concept Inventory. Adopting a mixed analysis of variance, the data were analyzed using SPSS-22 software. The findings of the study revealed that as a result of the reality therapy group counseling, the experimental group's academic self-concept post-test and follow-up scores were significantly higher than their control group counterpart (p < 0.05).
