Objectives: AIDS is a debilitating chronic infectious disease. Identification of personality characters and hope of HIV- positive patients impacts the improvement of health services. The aim of this research was to evaluate the correlation between the personality characters and hope in HIV- positive patients. Method: Some 42 HIV-positive patients with available sampling method were selected. Hope questionnaire and NEO-PI-R scale were used for evaluation of personality characters and hope. Data analysis was done via Pearson and multivariate regression analysis. Results: Data analysis showed independent negative correlation between neuroticism and hope and positive dependent correlation between extroversion and hope. Conclusion: Only neuroticism can independently predict hope in HIV-positive patients. Neurotic persons are depressive, anxious, irrational, stressful, with guilt feeling. So HIV positive patients with high neuroticism score probably have low hope.

This research tried to study the effectiveness of teaching emotional intelligence on aggression and resilience of girl students based on assimilation and accommodation method. To do this pretest-post, test methods with a control group were employed. Some thirty girl students in Tehran 11th district, were chosen to place in both control and experimental groups in random and cluster sampling in several stages. Members of experimental group were taught based on emotional intelligence method in 12 sessions, twice a week. Both groups were asked to answer Buss and Perry aggression questionnaires and Davidson and Connor resilience inventory before and after teaching sessions. The follow up students answered the questions again after a 2.5- month time. Data was analyzed by multivariable covariance method. Results: Findings of the research showed that the trainings were effective in increasing of resilience and decreasing of aggression among the students. According to results, this method of teaching can be used in schools and other educational institutes for increasing of resilience and decreasing of aggression. This method is better to be used by consolers’ programs seriously and can also be used in other educational levels and ages to decrease emotional problems
