Stress is among the important factors of beginning and continuing addiction. The aim of this research was to anticipate the perceived stress on the basis of emotional regulation, experiential avoidance and anxiety sensitivity. The present research is of correlation kind which falls under the explanatory projects category. Research population consisted of all of the individuals that were addicted to drugs, and who used the services of addiction treatment centers of Tehran in 1394. From among the research population 220 individuals were selected by convenience sampling method, and then filled out the questionnaires which were related to the research. Evaluation tools were emotion regulation (Gras and John, 2003), experiential avoidance (Bond et al, 2007) and anxiety avoidance (Rees et al, 1986). Regression analysis results showed that repression, experiential avoidance and anxiety sensitivity components anticipates the perceived stress in addicted individuals significantly and positively and the reevaluation component predicted it negatively and significant. Findings of the present research pointing out to the fact that psychological structures including emotional regulation, experiential avoidance and anxiety sensitivity, have important role in the perceived stress of the individuals who are addicted to drugs. Thus, in creating a psychotherapeutic basis for people who are addicted to drug, this factor should be taken into consideration.

Nowadays, with the transition of the societies from traditional and community oriented to modernity and individualism there is a noticeable increase in the marriage age (especially among women) and the desire to select partner singly. On the other hand, we are seeing an increase on the dissatisfaction, conflict, lack of commitment, divorce, and generally decrease of marital quality which damages the body of family and society. In this paper, we study the effects of partner-selection patterns, marriage age, and age differences between the spouses on the marital quality of married women in Tehran. The research's method is causal -comparative. The population is selected from married women in Tehran, Iran. The total number of the participants is 400 which were selected by Non-probability sampling method by visiting public parks in Tehran, Iran. They responded to marital quality questionnaire, revised version (RDAS), and questions to evaluate the marriage age, partner selection method, and the age differences with their spouses .From the important observations we noted that it is statistically significant that girls who are forced to get married and who get married in teenage age shave lower marital quality compared others. Also, it was shown that couples’ age difference deos not have a statistically significant influence on the marital quality.
