Thus, the purpose of this study is a comparison of selective attention among patients with depression, obsessive, anxiety, and normal individuals. Materials and Methods: This paired comparison study carried out on all normal individuals and patients with depression, anxiety and obsessive- compulsive referred to psychiatric clinic of Lorestan university of medical sciences in 2012. 120 patients (30 cases with depression, 30 anxiety, 30 obsessive - compulsive and 30 normal) were selected using convenience sampling method. To measure selective attention, the Stroop test (color test - word) was used. The descriptive indicators (frequency, mean, standard deviation) and inferential test of Scheffe were used for multivariate analysis. Results: The results showed that depressed individuals, response speed is slower than the other 3 groups. Also anxiety and obsessive patients compared to normal ones have slower response speed, but show faster reaction than the depressed people.

Abstract
Background: Medical professional ethics is a structured system for solving ethical issues and providing appropriate solutions in the medical field. The purpose of this study was to design and test the pattern of professional ethics in physicians.
Materials and Methods: Reviewing previous studies, the researchers completed and finalized a preliminary list of human resources factors affecting professional ethics components using the Delphi method. For this purpose, 14 professional ethics experts were selected as the expert group using the non-probability sampling method and a combination of purposeful or judgmental and chain methods. In this model, the components were considered as (latent) variables that were measured by relevant indicators (explicit variables) and determined based on structural equation modeling of their impacts on students' professional ethics. Before fitting the model, using SPSSV22 statistical software, the assumption of the normality of data distribution was evaluated by the Kolmogorov-Smirnov nonparametric test.
Results: The findings were analyzed using a qualitative research method and the Delphi model. The findings of this study led to the identification of 11 components, including conscientiousness, job excellence, integrity and dignity, respect for others, kindness, commitment to social justice, time management, emotional intelligence, confidentiality, ethical knowledge, and moral sensitivity. Among these, time management, emotional intelligence, ethical knowledge and ethical sensitivity are the new achievements of this research.
