Abstract
Background: The present study was to evaluate effectiveness of positive therapeutic program on psychological well-being in women with ADHD children.
Materials and Methods:  This study was quasi-experimental and pretest-posttest with control group kind. The study sample consisted of 50 mothers in 2015-2016. Convenience sampling was applied to select the participants. Participants were quite randomly divided into two groups of 25 individuals. These groups were randomly divided into two groups of experimental and control groups. The experimental group received positive program and the control group received no intervention. The therapeutic packages of the positive were conducted for six sessions. Before and after the experiment all of the participants responded to the psychological well-being questionnaire. Three months after the experiment, i.e. the follow-up stage, in order to check storage of the program's effects, the participants answered the instrument. The data were analyzed by covariance (MANCOVA) test using SPSS 18.0.
Results: The results of this study showed that positive program resulted significant effect in all of six components of psychological well-being. It should be noted that all of the results were significant at (p< 0.05) (DF 48, 2) and its effect maintain three months after the experiment (p< 0.05).
Conclusion: Regarding to results, the positive therapeutic program can be effective in decreasing psychological problems. Also, this program is useful in promoting mental health among mothers with psychological problems such as ADHD.

Volume 19, Issue 4 (10-2017)
Abstract

Background : The aim of this study was to predict the test anxiety and academic self-handicapping based on alexithymia in students with reading learning disorder.
Materials and Methods: This study is a correlational study. The population included all of students with reading disorder in Khorramabad city in 2015-2016. Cohen’s Proposed Method was used for determining the size of the sample,and among the students who referred to  education center in Kohrramabad, based on specialist's diagnosis in this field, in sum 112 students carried criteria for participating in this study. The students completed the test anxiety, self handicapping and alexithymia questionnaires. Regression analysis was used for analyzing data. The data were analyzed by statistical SPSS software version 18.
Results: The results showed that the correlation between study variables were significant (p>0.001). Also, The results of regression analysis showed that alexithymia was able to predict ( 54/. P<0.001) the total variance of test anxiety and academic self-handicapping.
Conclusion: The results can help to counsolers and workers in the education field for effective interventions in test anxiety and academic self-handicapping.

Volume 19, Issue 5 (2-2018)
Abstract
Background: In order to study of dry matter yield and essential oil efficiency in8 accession of three species Saturja in agricultural research station of Khorramabad, the experiment was carried out during 2010.
Materials and Methods:  Seeds of the accession were sown in pots and transferred to field in 14-16 leaves stage seedling. The spaced plants were cultivated in randomized complete blocks with three replications. For measurement of essential oil efficiency, in the flowering stage, the foliages were harvested and dried. The essential oil was extracted by vapor method distillation. The essential oil production was calculated by dry matter yield x oil%. The data were collected and analyzed for yield and morphological traits. The means of treatments were compared by DMRT method.
Results: The results showed significant that differences between species and accession within species for all of the traits except plant surviving rate (P<0.01). The species of S.mutica had higher values than means of two other species.
Conclusion: Results obtained in this study showed that dry matter yield and oil content of S.mutica is more than S.Khuzestanica and S.rechingeri. This species was proposed as a suitable species for domestication and cultivation in Khorramabad region.

Volume 22, Issue 1 (4-2020)
Abstract
Background: Nowadays, neurofeedback is used as a new method to improve the symptoms of ADHD and epilepsy. The effectiveness of this new therapeutic approach in various disorders has been investigated. The purpose of this study was to compare the efficacy of this treatment in patients with hyperactivity and epilepsy.
Materials and Methods: This study was quasi-experimental with pretest and post test and the control group. The study population comprised all the children with ADHD and epilepsy in Karaj. The sample consisted of 60 infected children (15 indivuduals suffering from ADHD, 15 people with epilepsy and 30 controls) who were selected by the random sampling method. In the pre-test, the behavioral behavior (executive summary) for children was completed. This tool reflects the teacher's view of student behaviors in the field of executive functions. In fact, it provides a tool for screening the performance problems. Executable executive functions in this log include inhibition, flexibility, emotional control, initiation, work memory, planning / organizing, inventory management and monitoring. To conduct the research, the beta / theta program was used for all the subjects. The aim was to increase theta waves and decrease beta waves. After completing 10 sessions (5 weeks and 2 sessions per week), the neurofeedback was run and the log was re-entered. Descriptive statistics (mean and standard deviation) were used to analyze the data and the one-variable covariance method was used to infer the data. Spss version 18 was used to analyze the data.
Results: The findings of the research indicated that the performance scores in the pre-test and post-test of the studied groups were significantly different )P<0.001(. Moreover, the effect of neurofeedback treatment on the improvement of executive functions in the ADHD group was higher than the epileptic and control groups )P<0.001(.
Conclusion: Based on the findings, neurofeedback is efficient but its effect is different in patients with ADHD and epilepsy. Hence, the use of neurofeedback is more effective in improving the performance of ADHD patients. These results can be useful in the field of overactive treatment using novel methods.

Volume 24, Issue 4 (3-2023)
Abstract
Background: Physiological childbirth refers to the natural birthing process that does not involve medical or pharmaceutical interventions. This method is characterized by spontaneous labor, the absence of medical interventions, freedom of movement, and active participation of the mother. Rate of cesarean delivery has been increasing over the past decade in Iran, accounting for approximately 50% of all births in the country as Iranian healthcare officials have also promoted physiological childbirth. In this regard, it is important to recognize that physiological birth is a personal choice; therefore, women should receive the necessary information and support to make informed decisions about their birth experiences. Besides, it is critical to provide the necessary education for healthcare providers and engage with women to address their cultural and social beliefs about childbirth. Additionally, the supportive policies of the government that promote physiological childbirth and educational programs can also be valuable in this regard.
