Purpose Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) is usually observed among women of reproductive age, so, it may be worsened by emotional and somatic symptoms. The main aim of this investigation was to assess the predictability of pain intensity and psychological distress by personality traits and self-regulation skills among the Iranian female population.Methods The data were collected via numeric pain assessment, DASS-42, NEO, SRQ, and demographic questionnaire. The significant level was set at 0.05. In this study, we used the method of variance-based structural equations by PLS software.Results Pearson correlation between total score of self-regulation skills and subscales of DASS-42 stress, anxiety, and depression were respectively (0.78), (0.71), and (0.73). Thenceforward, the correlation between pain intensity and total score of self-regulation skills was (0.72). Moreover, results showed that the correlation between personality traits scores with subscales of DASS-42 stress, anxiety, and depression were respectively (0.71), (0.73), and (0.87). Finally, data analysis demonstrated a correlation between self-regulation skills and pain intensity (0.70). (P= 0.05)Conclusions This article shows that personality traits and self-regulation skills can significantly predict the degree of pain intensity and psychological distress among females before and during menstruation concerning mediating role of suggestibility and attitudes toward menstruation.

The present study was conducted to develop a structural model of love failure based personality traits, attachment style and early maladaptive schemas, family (parenting patterns) and social (perceived social support) factors.The research method is correlational and structural equation modeling. The statistical population included all girls and boys with experience of love failure who had referred to counseling centers in regions 1. 2, 3 and 5 of Tehran in the first half of 1398. Among them, using voluntary sampling method, individuals who were willing to participate in the study and also met the inclusion criteria were identified. In the next step, 200 of them were randomly selected and evaluated. Research measurement tools included: Hazan and Shaver Attachment Questionnaire (AAI), Love Trauma Symptom Inventory (LTSI), NEO Five-Factor Inventory (NEO-FFI), Young Schema Questionnaire-Short Form (YSQ-SF), Questionnaire Grolnick Parental Perception (POPS) and the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS). descriptive statistics and inferential statistics by path analysis and factor analysis. The results of data analysis showed that the overall effect of individual factors, namely the three factors of personality traits, attachment style and early maladaptive schemas, as well as the social factor of perceived social support variable on love failure of boys and girls in Tehran was significant. In relation to the second hypothesis, namely the family factor or parenting patterns in the present study, the results of the structural equation model showed that the overall effect of this variable on love failure was not significant. However, more detailed analysis showed that among the subscales of parenting patterns, the three components of father-child employment, support for father autonomy and father warmth had a significant effect on the love failure of girls and boys. The results also showed that the tested model is a desirable model and has an acceptable fit.

The present study examined the mediationg role of driving anger on the relationship between personality traits and aggressive driving behaviors among drivers. In this correlational study, 400 drivirs responded to the Five Factor Inventory (FFI, John & Srivastava, 1999), the Driving Anger Scale (DAS; Deffenbacher, Oetting, & Lynch, 1994) and the Driving Anger Expression Inventory (DAEI; Deffenbacher, Lynch, Oetting & Swaim, 2002). Results showed that there is a positive significant correlation between neurotism with anger emotion and non-adaptive expression of driving anger and there is negative significant correlation between neurotism with adaptive expression of anger driving. Results also indicated that there is a negative significant correlation between extraversion, conscensciesness, agreeableness and openness to expriences with anger emotion and non-adaptive expression of driving anger and positive significant correlation with adaptive expression of driving anger. Results showed that the partially mediated model of driving anger on the relationship between personality traits and anger expression had acceptable fit to data. In sum, these finding show that the part of available variance in aggressive driving behaviors in the context of prediction by personality traits, accounted for driving anger emotion.
