The aim of this study is to survey the role ofexecutive functions as cognitive/neuroscience and negative automatic thoughts and as cognitive/psychology factors in adolescent’s difficulties in emotion regulation. The statistic society in this study consisted of all adolescent boys who lived in Bushehr in 2016- 2017. From them 128 secondary school students selected via random cluster sampling from Bushehr schools. Data were collected using the Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale, Negative Automatic Thoughts Questionnaire, Stroop Test, Wisconsin Card Sorting Test, and the Continuous Performance Test. Inter and stepwise multivariate analyses of covariance were used for data analysis. The results showed that from executive functions elements, inhibition can predict lack of emotional awareness. From negative automatic thoughts elements, personal incompatibility can predict all elements of difficulties in emotion regulation include non-acceptance of emotional responses, difficulties engaging in goal-directed behavior, impulse control difficulties, lack of emotional awareness, limited access to emotion regulation strategies, lack of emotional clarity. Furthermore, negative self-concept is the predictor of lack of emotional awareness. The result bold the role of negative automatic thoughts in difficulties in emotion regulation among adolescents, so findings of this research have clinical application and can affect training programs about regulation and control emotions.

The purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness and sustainability socio-educational inoculation program with Islamic teachings approach with the Stress Inoculation Training (SIT) on risk taking students. The research of method was experimental method by the design of pretest-posttest with two experimental groups and the control group. The sample was 54 students with risky behavior selected by random cluster sampling. The scale of measuring was risky behaviors (Zadeh Mohammadi et al.). The results of analysis of covariance indicated a meaningful decrease in mean risk taking scores for both groups, and Toki test results indicated a significant difference between two groups. Also, the paired T test indicated that the effect of education of Socio-Educational inoculation program with Islamic teachings approach is stable for six months. This sustainability was not established the Stress Inoculation Training. Findings indicate that that can be considered both the Socio-Educational inoculation program with Islamic teachings approach and the Stress Inoculation Training (SIT) as options for reducing Risk taking students, but was more effective sustainability in the Socio- Educational inoculation program with Islamic teachings approach.

This research has been conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of group therapy on solving parent-adolescent conflicts and reduction of aggression in young adult children. Research method was chosen to be semi-experimental with pre-test, post-test, witness-group and repeated measurement. Research society consisted of 25 young adult girl between 14 and 15 years of age and their parents which were chosen voluntarily among people who came to psychological clinics of regions 4 and 5 of ministry of education in Mashhad. To obtain preliminary data, to measure the severity of conflicts PCRS was utilized and to measure aggressive behavior of children Aggression Questionnaire of Boss and Perry was used. Analysis of variance with repeated measurement and LSD follow up test was used to compare mean values. Results show that the success of group therapy with multiple families involved, in solving conflicts (P < 0.05). Results also indicated that group therapy has meaningfully increased positive feelings and dialogue between adolescents and their parents in comparison with two other control groups. However the hypothesis of reduction of aggression was not supported statistically
