  The aim of present study was to investigate the mediating role of identity processing styles in the relationship between attachment styles and cognitive emotion of regulation. Participants included 378(253 females and males 125) selected from Shiraz University students selected by multistage random cluster sampling method. The research instruments were Attachment Styles Scale (Gillath, Hart, Noftle, & Stockdale, 2009), Identity Styles Scale (ISS-6G, White, Wampler & Winn, 1998) and Cognitive Emotion of Regulation Questionnaire (Granefski, Kraaij & Spinhoven). Findings showed that secure attachment had indirect effects on positive and negative cognitive emotion of regulation strategies by mediation of informational identity style and by mediating of normative identity style had an indirect effect on positive cognitive emotion regulation strategies. Ambivalent attachment had indirect effects on positive emotion regulation by mediation of informational and normative identity styles and on negative emotion regulation strategies by informational identity style. In addition avoidant attachment showed an indirect effect on positive and negative cognitive emotion regulation strategies by mediation of diffused identity style. Accordingly, identity processing styles played mediating roles in relationship between attachment styles and cognitive emotion regulation. Manuscript profile

  The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between attachment styles and suicidal tendency with a moderating Role of self-critical and dependency among students.The study method was descriptive-correlation. The statistical population consisted of all undergraduate and postgraduate students of Golestan University (N = 3757), of which 380 were sampled according to the Morgan table by proportional stratified random sampling. The research instruments were Blatt Depressive Experiences Questionnaire, Beck suicidal tendencies Questionnaire, and Hazan and Shavar Attachment Styles Questionnaire. Data were analyzed using Pearson correlation coefficient and structural equation model. The results showed that there is a positive and significant relationship between avoidant style and self-criticism and suicidal tendency and there is a positive and significant relationship between anxiety attachment style and self-critical attachment, and suicidal tendency, but there is a negative relationship between avoidant style and dependency. Also, Also, model fitting indicators confirms the role of mediator of dependency and self-critical in the relationship between anxiety and avoidance attachment styles with suicidal tendencies. According to the results, avoidant and anxiety attachment styles in negative situations with dependency and self-criticism are suitable components for the rate of suicidal tendency in students.

  The current study aimed to investigate the relationship between attachment styles (secure, insecure) and psychological well-being, mediated by the role of cognitive flexibility. This research was a correlational study. A total of 272 participants were selected by means of multistage cluster sampling among Shiraz university undergraduate students. The data were gathered by using 3 measures: Adult Attachment Scale (Collins & Reid,1996), Scale Psychological Well-Being (Ryff, 1989) and Cognitive Flexibility Inventory (Dennis & Vander Wal, 2010). Using Pearson's correlation coefficient and path analysis with software, SPSS 20 and Amos 22, the data were analyzed. The results of path analysis indicated that the model had a good fit to the data. The secure attachment styles had a significant positive direct effect on psychological well-being. And insecure (avoidance, ambivalence) attachment style had a significant negative direct effect on psychological well-being. Also attachment style had predicted psychological well-being stronger by mediating cognitive flexibility. The results of the prediction showed that, when people with a secure attachment style have more cognitive flexibility, they experience a higher psychological well-being. Manuscript profile

  The current study aimed to investigate the relationship between attachment styles and moral identity, mediated by role of empathy. This research was a correlational study. A total 350 participants were selected by means of multistage cluster sampling among all the girl students of tenth grade of Hamedan city’s public schools. The data were gathered by using 3 measures: Moral Identity Scale (Aquino & Reed, 2002), The Basic Empathy Scale (Joliffe & Farrington, 2006) and Adult Attachment Questionnaire (Collins & Reed, 1996). Using software Spss and Lisrel, the data were analyzed. The results indicate that the model had a good fit to the research’s data. The secure attachment style was a significant positive predictor of moral identity and avoidant attachment style and ambivalent attachment style, were both negative predictors of moral identity. Also secure attachment was a positive predictor of empathy and avoidant attachment was a negative predictor of empathy. And in the meantime the relationship among ambivalent attachment style and empathy was not significant. Manuscript profile

  The current study was conducted to investigate the structural relationships between attachment styles and major depressive symptoms in adolescents with the mediation of cognitive flexibility and distress tolerance. The research method is a correlation type, which was conducted through structural equation modeling on 352 adolescents aged 13-18 years old, who were selected by available sampling from the adolescent population of the 1st district of Tabriz city. Data were collected using the Collins and Reed attachment style scale, Kotcher depression scale, Dennis and Vanderwaal cognitive flexibility questionnaire, and Simmons and Gaher distress tolerance scale. Research data were analyzed using path analysis. The findings of the research indicated the optimal fit of the hypothetical research model. In addition, the results showed that distress tolerance can be considered as a mediating factor in the relationship between secure and insecure avoidant attachment styles with adolescent depression symptoms, on the other hand, the results showed that cognitive flexibility can be the relationship between secure attachment styles to mediate insecure avoidance and insecure anxiety with adolescent depression symptoms. The results of the research showed that distress tolerance and cognitive flexibility can mediate the relationship between attachment styles and the symptoms of major depression in adolescents. The results of this research can be used to identify the causes of adolescent depression and formulate therapeutic, interventions, including teaching adolescents the components of distress tolerance and cognitive flexibility.

  The aim of present study was predicting resilience from attachment styles and cognitive emotion regulation of women who have experienced bereavement. The research method was of correlational type and its statistical population was women who experienced the bereavement of their spouse in Tehran in 1400. The research samples included 200 women with the experience of bereavement, who were selected by available sampling method, and filled the Collins and Reed Attachment Styles Questionnaire (RAAS), the Gratz and Roemer Difficulty in Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS) and Connor and Davidson Resilience scale (CD- RISD). Pearson's correlation method and simultaneous multiple regression analysis were used to calculate the results. The results indicated that there is a significant negative relationship between avoidant attachment style, ambivalent style and difficulty in emotional regulation with resilience. Also, there was a significant positive relationship between secure attachment style and resilience (p<0.01). The results of simultaneous regression to predict resilience based on ambivalent and avoidant attachment style showed that ambivalent and avoidant attachment style have the power to predict resilience negatively (p<0.01). Therefore, secure attachment style can predict greater resilience in women who have experienced spousal bereavement. Manuscript profile
