This study was conducted with the aim of the effectiveness of cognitive self-compassion training on the dimensions of fatigue, self-criticism and emotional avoidance in patients with multiple sclerosis. The present study was a quasi-experimental study with a pretest-posttest design and follow-up (2 months). Subjects with an age range of 20-40 years and with a scale of physical disability (EDSS) 1 to 5.5 and purposefully selected and randomly divided into experimental group (cognitive self-compassion training) and control. Both groups answered Fisk (1994), Thompson & Zuroff (2004) levels of self criticism scale (2004) and Kennedy (2015) Emotional Avoidance Scale in the pre-test-post-test and 2-month follow-up stages. The experimental group received 10 sessions of cognitive self-compassion training once a week for 1.5 hours. The collected data were analyzed using mixed analysis of covariance with repeated measures. The results of covariance analysis mixed with repeated measures showed that cognitive self-compassion training is effective in reducing the dimensions of fatigue, self-criticism and emotional avoidance in patients with multiple sclerosis. Also, the effects of the intervention were maintained after 2 months of follow-up on reducing the scores of fatigue, self-criticism and emotional avoidance. Based on the results of this study, cognitive self-compassion training can be used along with drug interventions to reduce fatigue, self-criticism and avoid emotional experiences of multiple sclerosis patients in medical centers.

Stress is one of the effective factors in people's performance. Job and existing conditions of working environment can cause stress. One of the jobs that due to its nature is causing too much stress is nursing job. Various factors are involved in reducing stress, of which are spiritual skills. This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of training spiritual skills on stress and stressful Features of Nursing mothers. The Study population of this semi-experimental with pre-test and post-test research design with control group, consisted of all female nurses of Milad Hospital (150 people) whom complete the questionnaire. 30 individuals with higher scores in stress were randomly assigned to experimental and control groups. Data collection tools include spiritual skill training package and abidin parental stress index (PSI) with parental realm (54 items). Data were analyzed using analysis of covariance method & Levin univariate ANOVA. The hypothesis that training spiritual skills is effective in reducing nursing mothers' job stress is confirmed (F=24.977; Df=1 and 27; Sig=0.001). The results of the study imply that Spiritual skill training was effective in reducing stress and stressful features of nursing mothers. Keywords: Spiritual Therapies, Mothers, Nurses, Stress

AbstractDepression is one of the most common psychological disorders for which numerous treatment methods have been developed. The aim of the present study was to examine effect of brief behavioral activationtreatment on reducing depression symptoms and improving quality of life in patients with depression. The study used a semi-experimental design with pretest and posttest and a control group. Convenient sampling was used in selecting 22 female patients who were diagnosed with major depression by a psychiatrist. The diagnosis was given using DSM-IV-TR. The 22 subjects were divided into an experimental and a control group, and the experimental group received a behavioral activation treatment. Both groups completed BDI-II, HRSD, and WHOQOL-BREF in the pretest, posttest and follow-up phases (the follow-up was three months after the intervention). The results were analyzed using single-variable covariance analysis and t-test. Results indicated that the treatment effected considerable and significant changes in depression symptoms and quality of life of the subjects, both in short-term and after a period of three months. The study suggests that a brief behavioral activation treatment is effective in reducing depression symptoms, a finding which is consistent with findings of the third wave of cognitivebehavioral therapies. The treatment is therefore recommended as an effective method for treating major depression.
