Research project, correlation and structural equation method. The study population included all students in the academic year2017 period of secondary schools in the city KhormAbad that 1200 of them were selected by multistage random sampling. After completing a social anxiety and screening questionnaire, 266 (136 males and 130 females) were susceptible to this disorder. Then the obtained data entered the structural equation assumption model. In order to analyze the data obtained from Amos 24 software, it was used to compare the observed variance -curanese matrix (default model) with the reproduction variance-covariance matrix, to evaluate the model's ability to predict the criterion variable, and Also, it's fitting itself. . The results of the model analysis indicated that the predictive variables of negative emotional regulation (repression) and ambivalent insecure attachment style were directly and indirectly mediated by an emotional coping strategy on social anxiety disorder in adolescents. Also, the emotional coping strategies had a direct impact on social anxiety disorder. The anxiety sensitivity variable had a direct direct effect, but its indirect effect was not significant.

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.

Anxiety sensitivity, meta-worry and emotion regulation are critical psychological components involved in social anxiety disorder. The present paper seeks to study anxiety sensitivity, meta-worry and components of emotion regulation in students with and without social anxiety disorder.
This paper presents the ex post facto research design (causal-comparative method). The sample included 92 patients (46 patients with social anxiety disorder and 46 normal people). Data was collected using Wells anxiety thoughts, Gross and John emotion regulation, and Reiss and Peterson anxiety sensitivity index. They were also analyzed through MANOVA.
The results showed that there were significant differences between groups of students with and without social anxiety disorder in anxiety sensitivity, meta-worry and reappraisal. In other words, students with social anxiety disorder experience more anxiety sensitivity and meta-worry and less reappraisal than the control group. Also, there was no significant difference between groups in terms of suppression.
The anxiety sensitivity, meta-worry and reappraisal are psychological structures which play a significant role in the development of social anxiety disorder and can lead to persistence of its symptoms.
