Research findings have shown that intrusive thoughts are related both directly and indirectly (through cognitive evaluations, emotional responses, and neutralization strategies) to obsessive-compulsive symptoms. Also, the model after the final modification, based on the effect of intrusive thoughts (autogenesis and reactive) on obsessive-compulsive symptoms, considering the mediating role of variables of cognitive appraisal, emotional responses and neutralization strategies in Iranian non-clinical samples It has an acceptable fit with the experimental data.

The present study was conducted with the aim of investigating the effectiveness of emotion-focused therapy on the Cognitive flexibility and cognitive regulation of emotion in adolescents with social anxiety. This study was a semi-experimental study that was conducted with teenagers with social anxiety in Shahrekord City. 30 people were selected by purposeful sampling and randomly assigned to two experimental and control groups. Both groups completed the Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (Garnefski and Kraaij, 2006) and the Cognitive Flexibility Questionnaire (Dennis and Vander Wal, 2010) as a pre-test, and after teaching the experimental group 8 sessions of emotion-focused therapy, the two groups were again given the above questionnaires as After the test, they responded. The results of the covariance analysis showed that there is a significant difference between the experimental group and the control group in terms of Cognitive flexibility (p < 0.0001 and F = 25.16). And emotion-focused therapy has increased Cognitive flexibility scores in the experimental group. Also, the results showed that there is a significant difference between the experimental group and the control group in terms of cognitive regulation of emotion (p < 0.0001 and F = 52.85), and the treatment focused on emotion increased the scores of cognitive regulation of emotion in the experimental group. Therefore, it can be concluded that emotion-focused therapy has an effect on the cognitive regulation of emotions and Cognitive flexibility. Therefore, this intervention can be used to increase cognitive flexibility and cognitive regulation of emotion in students with social anxiety.

This research was conducted with the aim of investigating the effectiveness of social-emotional competence training on the fear of negative evaluation and psychosomatic symptoms of homeless and poorly supervised adolescents in quasi-family centers. The design of the semi-experimental research was pre-test-post-test with a control group. The statistical population of the research was all the unsupervised and poorly supervised teenagers living in quasi-family centers in Mashhad in 2023, whose number was calculated to be 1700. From the mentioned population, 30 people were selected by available sampling method and were placed in two experimental and control groups (15 people in each group) by random method. The research tools were questionnaires of fear of negative evaluation by Leary (1983) and psychosomatic symptoms by Najarian and Davoudi (2009). The experimental group received social-emotional competence training in 8 sessions of 60 minutes, but the control group did not receive any intervention until the end of the study. Research data were analyzed by multivariate and univariate covariance analysis by SPSS version 24 software. The results showed that social-emotional competence training is effective on the fear of negative evaluation and psychosomatic symptoms of homeless and poorly supervised adolescents in quasi-family centers (p<0.05). The results indicate that social-emotional competence training, by changing attitudes, values, behavior and improving the level of self-esteem and social interactions, reduces the fear of negative evaluation and psychosomatic symptoms of unaccompanied and poorly supervised adolescents in quasi-family centers.
