The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of mandala therapy on reducing anxiety in adolescents. The research was experimental with a pre-test post-test design developed with a test group and two groups of comparison. The statistical population of the study consisted of all high school students in the city of Germi aged 15 to 18 years old, among whom 45 were randomly selected and divided into three groups: one experimental group (15 people) and two groups Each group of 15 people was randomly assigned. The subjects completed the Spielberger positional anxiety questionnaire (1983) in two stages (pre-test and post-test). The experimental group was asked to paint the mandala for 20 minutes. Also, the first group was asked to engage in staining for 20 minutes and the second group was asked to compare for 20 minutes to Draw free painting. The results of covariance analysis showed that the difference between the groups in the post-test of anxiety was statistically significant, meaning that all three methods of mandala coloring, stained chess coloring, and free painting were effective in reducing anxiety. The results of the Bonferroni post hoc test showed that the mandala staining method had more effect than the other two methods. This difference can be interpreted by calling on its actions to integrate activities in the course of the engagement of subjects in the drawing of the mandala.

This study examined the role of social support on the prediction of mood and anxiety symptoms among Iranian and foreign students. In this study, some 139 students of Allameh Tabatabai University, 80 Iranian and 59 foreign, were selected as sample. The results of the study showed that:1- There was no significant difference between the two groups of foreign and Iranian students, in terms of the desired amount of perceived social support (p> 0.05)2- There was no meaningful difference between the two groups of Iranian and the foreign students in terms of mood and anxiety (lack of pleasure, public anxiety and aroused depression )(p> 0.05) 3- Social support are predicted by general depression, variables among the Iranian students (- .618 = β) (p <0.004 and F = 8.905). About 10 percent of the distribution of these variables predicted scores on social support. These findings showed that the person who possesses the desired and perceived social support more probably will get lower scores in the general depression. 4- Social support in foreign students is predicted by the lack of pleasure (-.915 = β), (p<0.001 ,F=11.997). These variables predicted 17% of the distribution of scores for social support. These findings showed how a person can get more perceived social support and desirable social support, it is likely that the lower the score achieved in the lack of pleasure. 5- Results of regression analysis showed that the aspects of social support explains that mood and anxiety symptoms are predicted by the Iranian Students' problem-focused emotional support. This variable predicted about 6% of the distribution of scores for mood and anxiety symptoms. This result showed that the person will get more problem-focused emotional support likely to earn lower scores on the mood and anxiety symptoms. 6- The results of regression analysis showed that the dimensions of social support is explained and that the mood and anxiety symptom of foreign students is predicted just by the daily emotional support. This variable predicted about 19% of the depression syndrome mood and anxiety scores. The result showed that the person will get more the daily emotional support likely to earn lower scores on the mood and anxiety Symptoms.

This study is aimed at investigating the effect of religious-based cognitive therapy and logotherapy on reducing the depression, anxiety, and aggression symptoms in university students. The statistical population consists of all students referring to the Consultation Center at Kurdistan University in Sanandaj, out of whom 90 were selected via random sampling. By applying SCL-90-R test, the level of aggression, depression, and anxiety of the participants is measured and they are randomly divided into three groups (30 subjects in each group). Thus, three groups, namely religious-based cognitive therapy, logotherapy and controlled groups are formed. The SCL-90-R scale is employed to measure the level of the above said symptoms in pre-test, post-test and follow-up stages. The results show that both religious-based cognitive therapy and Logotherapy reduce symptoms of aggression, anxiety, and depression of students and their effect is permanent in the follow-up stage. Also, no significant relation is found between the said two therapies. However, religious- based cognitive therapy is more effective in reducing depression symptoms compared with logotherapy.
