Therefore, the aim's of current research was conducted discovering the model of religious family therapy. For this purpose, using an exploratory study of thematic analysis, study data from four sources of Islamic texts including Quranic verses and Hadiths, authentic qualitative articles with a sample of Iranian families, interviews with family counseling experts and formation of a focus group including counseling, ethics and Hadith experts. , jurisprudence and family rights were obtained. Qualitative data analysis was done by following the standards of qualitative studies and the reliability of its data and with the Sterling method. Findings based on universal themes showed that religious family therapy interventions include interventions based on religious perceptions and behaviors, including correct perception of God and performing religious behaviors, religious spirituality, including the spirituality of the divine in relationships, regulation, including tolerance in relationships, control, including self-control. Emotions, include kindness, conversation includes good conversation, and adherence to religious obligations includes respect for rights and loyalty. The content validity of the model using CVI and CVR coefficients was above 75 and 85%, respectively, which shows the content validity of this model. According to the obtained religious processes, this model can be proposed as an independent family therapy model, and other religions can integrate family therapy based on the client's religion based on the religious processes of this model.

The present study aims to develop the "Shadjani" model based on Rumi's perspective. This is qualitative research and the method used in this research is the method of content analysis (theme) which has been obtained through study and research in six volumes of Masnavi Manavi. For extracting the “Shadjani” pattern, after initial analysis of the text of Masnavi books, the basic codes of Masnavi poems were extracted and merged and combined into “main” and “peripheral” themes. Through combination of 35 peripheral themes, we achieved 10 main themes, including Presence in the Moment, Silence, Patience and Persistence, Gratitude and Satisfaction, Acceptance and Submission, Awareness Raising, Enlightenment and Wisdom, Realizing Authentic Self, Love, Unity, and Oneness.In the second step, the extracted model was evaluated by a group of experts (specialists), and the content validity of the model was assessed based on the method of Waltz & Bausell (Content Validity Index, CVI henceforth) . The results showed that the components of the “Shadjani” model, based on Rumi's view, are concepts that have been considered in psychology and in Existential theories, especially Positivist Psychology, but, despite the apparent overlaps, due to differences in the viewpoints and the basis of formation they differ in content.

The present study sought to achieve the two goals of developing a conceptual model of will based on Islamic sources and examining its validity using the method of linguistic semantics, qualitative content analysis and descriptive contextualization methodsBy forming the semantic field of will, 36 basic concepts of will are identified in Islamic sources.The results of the "content validity check" at this stage led to the elimination of 20 concepts and the remaining 16 concepts.The results of the search for explanatory descriptive sentences related to the sixteen concepts amounted to 52146 data based on the principle of saturation. They were screened in two stages, the weakness of the book and the lack of conceptual connection.The result of the screening was the removal of 51081 data and the remaining 1074 data, which were analyzed by coding them in three stages: primary open coding, central open coding, and selective open coding.The result of this process was 265 open codes,19 core codes and 4 selective codes.This process showed that, according to Islamic sources, the will consists of 19 components in the form of 4 dimensions.These components are: intellect and air of the soul (as a super-organizer),belief patterns, desires and needs, mood, environment. Socio-cultural (antecedent dimension), environmental events, attention, personal reflections, arousal, evaluation, intention, active effort, action (process dimension), psychological-spiritual collapse, worldly-hereafter confusion, psychological-spiritual growth, action organization and resilience (consequence dimension).These components were evaluated by 9 humanities and psychology experts and were evaluated as favorable using"Content Validity Index (CVI).This modelwillhavetheability tobe convertedinto psychologicalmeasures andeducational-psychological protocols.

The present study aims to determine the efficacy of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy based on Hofmann’s model for decreasing symptoms of social anxiety disorder. 12 subjects with social anxiety disorder were selected using Social Phobia Inventory (SPIN) and Structured Clinical Interview for Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of mental disorders (SCID-IV). 6 subjects were randomly selected to be included in the test group and 6 subjects were included in the control group. The test group received CBT based on Hofmann’s model and the control group waited. Examinations showed that the 2 groups matched demographically. Subjects completed the Social Phobia Inventory (SPIN), the Liebowitz Social Anxiety Scale (LSAS-SR), and The Brief Fear of Negative Evaluation Scale (BFNE) questionnaires before, immediately after and 1.5 months after the end of treatment/ waiting. The results of analyses indicated that the independent variable (CBT based on Hofmann’s model) had a significant effect on the dependent variable (SPIN, LSAS-SR, BFNE) in repeated measurements (pre-test, post-test and follow up). Generally, the results were indicative of the efficacy of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy based on Hofmann’s model (2007) for decreasing different components of social anxiety disorder; as the efficacy was maintained from post-test to follow-up stage.

Background and Objective: Recent studies show that depressed people have an attention bias to negative stimuli. Therefore, the present study was carried out to compare attention bias in depressed and normal people. Method: The present research was an analysis study with a causal- comparative method. The statistical population included all the depressed individuals who had referred to a psychological clinic in Tehran. Using convenience sampling method and carrying out the Beck Depression Inventory as well as the unstructured interview with DSMIV criteria, 30 depressed individuals (cut-off point 21 and higher) were selected as the patient group, and then were compared to 30 normal people, as the control group, in terms of sex, age, marriage status, and education levels as compare group. Finally, the computer-based neurological test of Dot- Probe (emotional faces stimuli) was performed on the subjects of both groups. Results: The data were analyzed using t-test to examine the extent of matching between the two groups, and the multivariate analysis of covariance (MANOVA) was applied to study attention bias in the two groups. The results showed that there was a difference of time speed between the two groups; i.e. the depressed group acted slower in responding to incongruent stimuli. However, there was no significant difference in accuracy of the responds. Conclusion: The findings imply the role of depression severity in exacerbating attention bias in depressed people, and also the necessity to apply treatment methods or to use attention bias modification in depressed individuals
