The present research is aimed at comparison between the effect of music therapy based on Iranian music and cognitive therapy on anger control in adolescent boys. In this study with pre-test/post-test experimental design, a school in district two of RobatKarim City is selected via convenience sampling. Using the Spielberger’s STAX-2 anger expression questionnaire, 30 students are selected and randomly assigned to three groups. The first group received eight sessions of non-active music therapy and the second one underwent cognitive therapy for the same period of time. No intervention was made to the control group. TheANCOVAand Scheffe Posthoc test are applied to analyze the data. The ANCOVA indicates significant difference in the three studied groups. The Posthoc Scheffe test shows no significant difference between the control group and the one receiving music therapy; however, a significant difference is observed between the control group and the cognitive therapy one, as well as between the cognitive and the music therapy groups(P<0/01). Non-active music therapy had no effect on increasing the level of anger control. On the contrary, cognitive therapy enhanced the anger control in the subjects.

Resiliency refers to the capacity of human beings survive and thrive in the face of adversity. It is a term that can be applied to people of any age. The main purpose of this research was to compare the effectiveness of Adrelrian's method counseling and cognitive reconstruction based on allegory in enhancing 18-24-year old students' resiliency. The statistical population consisted of all the male students of Tehran teacher training center in which 45 students were chosen as sample group and randomly divided into two experiment groups and also a control group. Then, Adlerian group counseling during 11 sessions and cognitive reconstruction group based on allegory during 12 sessions took part in group counseling meetings once a week, each session 2 hours. Cunner and Daividson resiliency scale CD-RIS were used to gather data and were applied as pre-test, post-test and conclusion. In order to analyze the data, Covariance analyzes and follow-up test were used. The findings confirmed that intervention Adlerian group counseling has made a meaningful promotion of resiliency but the cognitive based on reconstruction in allegory effectiveness didn’t get any meaningful effect. Furthermore, a comparison between the interventions of the two counseling groups in terms of increasing resiliency was not meaningless. Results of 2 group’s scores after 2 months showed that the intervention effect is endurable so we can recognize the intervention in Adlerian way has deeper effectiveness in people interpretation and it is because of the emphasis on recognition and personality dynamics.
