Personality is one of the important topics and fundamental concepts in psychology science, so that by recognizing and reviewing it can be scientifically explained by human behavior. The character can be considered a plethora of thoughts, mood, social behaviour and physical characteristics of the person who determine the alters of a person's reaction against others. Although the word of shakeleh in Islamic culture is the equivalent of character words, but the comparative study of its concept with the concept of personality is a number of topics that have been done less about that research. Therefore, the present paper with a qualitative approach and using analytical-analytic methods, has been proposed this concept from the perspective of the approaches of psychology and Quranic literature and has tried to achieve a comprehensive view in this regard. The results of the implementation of psychologists with Quranic teachings show that the human being of the same character is a semantic meaning that is made in the life of the human being and through its actions and behaviors.

Method: The research method is descriptive-correlational. The statistical population consisted of 12373 women employed in organizations of Lorestan province. 400 people were selected by stratified random sampling based on Cochran formula. Data were collected through NEO Personality Scale, Shirin Emotional Intelligence, Collins & Reid Attachment Inventory, Voluntary Activities Questionnaire and Oxford Happiness Questionnaire. Pearson correlation and path analysis were used to analyze the data. Results: The results showed that the happiness model had the necessary fit and direct and indirect effects of neuroticism and the direct effect of extraversion and openness on experience was significant on happiness (p<0.01). Also, direct effect of emotional intelligence and voluntary activities and the effect of attachment styles on happiness is significant (p<0.01). There was no significant relationship between demographic characteristics and happiness (p<0.05). Conclusion: According to research findings, happiness can be affected by personality, attachment style, emotional intelligence and voluntary activities, and managers of organizations can help them to increase the happiness of their employees by prioritizing them and teaching them.

The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of written emotional disclosure on the defense mechanisms of alexithymic people. A qausi-experimental pretest-posttest control group design was used to determine the effectiveness of written emotional disclosure. For this purpose, 130 male and female master's and PhD students at University of Tehran were selected by convenience sampling method. A total of 35 participants having high scortes on Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS-20) were screened and randomly assigned to two experimental and control groups. The Defensive Style Questionnaire (DSQ) was performed to evaluate the participant's defense mechanisms. Then, a two-week program of written emotional disclosure (6 sessions, 20 minutes for each), was used to measure changes in post-test. Research data were analysed using non-parametric tests (Wilcoxon and Mann Whitney-U) with SPSS version 23. The results showed that written emotional disclosure reduced the use of immature defense mechanisms and increased the mature defenses; with no significant change on neurotic defenses. It is concluded that written emotional discloure can be used as a complementary and effective therapy in psychotherapy.

The present study examines demographic, personality and situational variables as predictors of shift-work tolerance in an industrial company in Ahvaz. The sample in the main stage consisted of 300 shift-workers and in the validation stage of the research tests, 100 shift-workers who were selected by using stratified random sampling. The subjects divided into two groups (low tolerance shift-workers versus high tolerance shift-workers) by using survey of Shift-workers (SOS) questionnaire. Then, each group of subjects completed NEO questionnaire and demographic questionnaire provided by the researchers. In order to analyze the data, discriminate analysis and in the validation stage, Pearson's Correlation Coefficient were applied. The results confirmed the hypothesis of study. On the other hands, findings revealed that tolerance of shift-work can be predicted from demographic (age, education, number of children and record), personality (neuroticism) and situational variables (morningness, rigidity/flexibility and workload). The obtained results are fully described in the article.
