Abstract Communication and interaction with others are effective components of social life and mental health. Focusing on preventive and therapeutic approaches can strengthen communication and ultimately, human health. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of comprehensive religious psychotherapy on strengthening the interpersonal relationship between high school students and their parents. The research method is semi-experimental with pre-test and post-test design and control group. The statistical population of this research consisted of all second grade high school female students in Tehran city in the academic year of 1396-97. From the target population at first, with screening tests 100 students were randomly selected and among those with the highest difficulty, 24 were randomly selected and divided into two groups of 12 (experimental and control). The experimental group was trained for 8 sessions based on comprehensive religious-based psychotherapy protocol. Data from pre-test and post-test were obtained using the SCL90 test (Derogatis and et al., 1973) and the RFCP test (Richie and Fitz Patrick, 1990). The findings showed that comprehensive religious education is effective in enhancing interpersonal communication between parents and their adolescent girls (P= 0.001). Considering the lack of treatment considerations- teaching religious therapies in relation to adolescents by many therapists, this study points to the need for comprehensive psychotherapy education.

The main purpose of this research was to predict the mental health of school students based on life skills. For this purpose, 800 students in the city of Semnan were selected by stratified random sampling method. Then, Life Skills and Mental Health (including 28 items) questionnaires were administered on them. The results indicated that there is a significant negative relationship between the awareness of life skills and mental health. Also the results of stepwise regression analysis showed that in the first step the variable of emotions control entered into the regression equation and explained 26 percent of mental health variance. Thereupon, coping with stress, self-awareness, decision and empathy skills, respectively proved a significant role in the prediction of mental health. Generally, these variables predicted 37 percent of mental health changes. Results indicate the important role of life skills in preventing disorders and offer practical implications for the authorities in charge and policy makers in education
