  Abstract: The aim of the present study was to investigate the mutual relationship between characteristics of schizophrenia (Sc) with theory of mind and alexithymia, as social cognitive as-pects, in a nonclinical group. The research method was descriptive-correlational design of regression prediction. To do so, 200 university students (100 males, 100 females) were selec-ted by multistage cluster sampling from the two universities of Bonab city, East Azarbayjan province in Iran (Payame Noor and University of Bonab). Having any physical or psycho-neurological chronic illnesses was the elimi-nation criterion in the study. To collect data the 78-item scale of MMPI-2 for schizophrenia, Reading Mind from Eyes Test (RMET), and Alexithymia Questionnaire (FTAS-20) were used. Data were analyzed by Pearson's cor-relation test, linear regression analysis, and mul-tiple simultaneus regression analysis. According to the results, the predictive role of theory of mind and alexithymia in characteristics of schi-zophrenia were confirmed. Separately, theory of mind explained 19% and alexithymia explained 57% of the variance of neuro-psychological characteristics of schizophrenia. Studying the combined contribution of theory of mind and alexithymia in schizophrenic characteristics in-dicated that, among the two variables, only the predictive variable affecting features of schizo-phrenia was alexithymia (with beta=0.58).

  The present research was conducted to evaluate the relation between the scores in Schizophrenia character trait assessed by MMPI-2 Test on explanation of explicit memory and its indicators (eg, recognition and recall memory) and selective attention in a healthy student group. The method of the research was descriptive-correlational. To do so, 182 students from Bonab Payam Noor and some other universities were selected via cluster sampling method. Having chronic physical or mental or neurological diseases, or smoking or drug addiction were the exclusion criteria in this research. For gathering data, 78 items of MMPI-2 Sc scale, 90 words of Explicit Memory Test (EMT), and Toulouse-Pieron Attention Test (T-PAT) were used. The results of this research proved the predictive role of Sc character trait in the functioning explicit memory and selective attention (p<0.05), and indicated that with one unit change in Sc score explicit memory will change 0.29 unit and selective attention 0.17 unit in the opppsite direction.
