The aim of this study was to compare the implicit and explicit associations of aggression and anxiety in boy adolescents with and without bullying behavior. The research method was descriptive correlational and its statistical population included 12 to 19 year old male students in Tehran in the first and second secondary school that 113 students were selected by cluster sampling method in the academic year of 2019-2020 In order to identify students with and without bullying, the Peer Bullying Nomination Form (Pekarik et al. 1976) was used. To collect research data, the Illinois Bullying Questionnaire (Espelage, Holt.2001), the Sc-l90 Clinical Symptoms checklist (Derogatis & lipman, Covi.1973), and Implicit Association Test (IAT) (Greenwald et al. 1998) were used. Data were analyzed by using average comparison test and multiple regression analysis. The results showed that the difference in implicit association scores of aggression and anxiety in two groups with and without bullying was significant; But only the explicit association scores of aggression were significant in two groups and the explicit association of anxiety was not different in two groups. Results also showed that explicit and implicit associations of aggression, and implicit association of anxiety can predict bullying behavior with confidence (p≥ 0.0001). These results confirm the role of implicit and explicit associations in the clinical field; and helps to better understand bullying behavior, to be considered in the development of educational programs and psychological interventions.

Aim: The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of mode deactivation group therapy (MDT) on reducing aggression of boy adolescents covered by Welfare Organization. Method: The research method was quasi-experimental, pretest-posttest and three-month follow-up with experimental and control groups. The statistical population of the study was 38 adolescent boys, age range 12-18 years, who covered by cultural-educational complex of Ashiyane-Rahmate-Elahi in region 11 of Isfahan, Iran, in 2019. Using purposeful sampling, 24 adolescents who have high score on the aggression questionnaire were selected and randomly assigned into experimental and control groups (12 participants in each group). Research tools included aggression questionnaire (Buss and Perry, 1992) which were completed in three phase by two groups. Apache & Di Meo (2012) Mode Deactivation Therapy program was run for the experimental group in nine weekly 75-minute sessions. Data were analyzed using mixed model repeated measures analysis of variance. Results: Results indicated that the MDT had a significant effect on decreasing reduced general aggression score (F = 23.23, P = 0.0001) and its subscales include physical aggression (F = 5.98, P = 0.005), verbal aggression (F = 3.75, P = 0.043), Anger (F = 8.45, P = 0.002), and hostility (F = 9.97, P = 0.0001) and this effect remained stable at follow- up. Conclusion: Since mode deactivation group therapy teach skills such as mindfulness breathing, emotional defusion, cognitive defusion, acceptance, and balancing beliefs toward alternative beliefs, it can be effective in reducing aggression and its dimensions.

The aim of this study was to compare aggression and interpersonal problems in students with and without vulnerable and grandiose narcissistic traits. In this cross-sectional study, a sample of 90 students was selected using Pathological Narcissistic Inventory. Aggression Questionare (AQ) and Inventory of Interpersonal Problems (IIP) were used to collect data. The data were analyzed using MANOVA. The results showed that students with narcissistic traits report more aggression and interpersonal problems except in verbal aggression. These results show that grandiose and vulnerable narcissism are different self-states of the same pathology and emphasize vulnerability symptoms in DSM criteria for NPD.

This study seeks to determine the effect of clay therapy on the aggression of 7-12 years-old school children. For this purpose, 35 aggressive elementary school children of Tehran were selected according to the aggression scale of CBCL test. Then, they were randomly divided into control (n=14) and experimental groups (n=21). The experimental group went under clay therapy while control group received no treatment. The two groups were evaluated immediately after the treatment session and two months later. Data were analyzed based on the repeated analysis of variance (between-within the mixed group). The F parameter showed that clay therapy is able to reduce the aggression of the experimental group in comparison to the control group. These results were also observed during follow-up period.

Aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between migraine attacks and mental disorders.mental disorders is that disorders which assessed by Minnesota multiphasic personality inventory (MMPI), and migrain predicated to transient ischemic attacks. The investigation hypothesis was: tendency to mental disorders assessed by MMPI in migraine patients is mor than normal population.fortesting hypothesis 66 persons diagnosed as migraine patient selected on medicine dosiers and compared with 66 sound person.in this study MMPI and a qustionaire related to history of migraine administered and Multivariate Analysis Of Variance (MANOVA) is used for analysis of data.results confirmed our hypothesis.migraine patients had mor tendency to mental disorders in comparative with sound persons.thisdisorders were depression,hysteria,psychopath,paranoia,psychasthenia,chizophrenia,hypomania and hypochondria.totally results similar to former studies supported our hypothesis and this differences are significant in statistical viewpoint.
