Data were analyzed using SPSS19 and AMOUS software. Results:The results showed that the proposed model has a good fit with the research data (75/48=X2، 13=df، 20/0=P، 75/3=X2/df، 94/0= GFI، 92/0=AGFI، 98/0=CFI، 98/0=NFI، 058/0=RMSEA و 33/518=AIC). The indirect effect of Religious Beliefs on Coronavirus Disease Anxiety mediated by Hope was significant. Also, the direct and positive effect of Religious Beliefs on Hope (with two components of strategic thinking and factor thinking) and the direct and negative effect of Hope (with two levels of strategic thinking and factor thinking) with Corona virus Disease Anxiety was significant.

The aim of present study was to examine the mediating role of hope in the relationship between self-efficacy and flourishing among counselors and psychologists. The research method was correlational using the structural equation modeling method. The sample consisted of 407 counselors and psychologists who were selected online through social media (Female :319, Male: 88). The instruments used were General Self-efficacy scale, Hope scale, and Flourishing scale. Data analysis was performed by statistical methods of Pearson correlation coefficient and structural equation modeling using SPSS-24 and AMOS-24 software. The result of structural equation modeling revealed that the model of relationship between self-efficacy, hope and flourishing, had a good fit. According results, high levels of self-efficacy and hope, predicted greater levels of flourishing. Also, hope emerged as a mediator in the link between self-efficacy with flourishing. This study showed that self-efficacy and hope play an important role in the rate of flourishing and targeting them can promote the well-being in counselors and psychologists.

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.
