        The present research has been conducted with the purpose of examining the efficacy of integrated model of self regulation-attachment couple therapy on dysfunctional impulsivity and difficulties in emotion regulation of couples. This study was a quasi-experimental research that had a pretest-posttest design with a control group. Among the couples referring to the councelling centers of Khoramabad city, 22 couples were selected and randomly assigned to experimental and control groups. Before performing couple therapy sessions, Dysfunctional Impulsivity Scale (DIS) and Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS) were conducted for all the couples as pretest. Then couples in the experimental group participated in integrated model of self regulation-attachment couple therapy, but the control group did not receive treatment. After completion of the therapeutic sessions, the couples of two the groups completed those scales again as the posttest. Finally, the data was analyzed by Multivariate Analysis of Covariance. The results indicated that after the control of pretest effect, the effect of group membership on linear composition of dependent variables of dysfunctional im-pulsivity and difficulties in emotion regulation was significant. Univariate Analysis of Covariance also indicated that self regulation-attachment couple therapy had significant efficacy on decreasing dysfunctional impulsivity and difficulties in emotion regulation (except on difficulties in engaging in goal-directed behavior), compared to the control group. In conclusion, integrated model of self- regulation-attachment couple therapy can be a useful and effective treatment in decreasing dysfunctional impulsivity and difficulties in emotion regulation of couples.

        This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of an emotion regulation pro gram using emotional schema therapy on distress tolerance and empowerment of mothers of children with autistic disorder. The research method was quasi-experimental with pretest-posttest and a control group. The statistical population of this study included all mothers of children with autism disorder in Isfahanin. Sampling was done through available sampling method, and forty people were randomly selected and assigned to experimental and control groups. The independent variable of the emotion regulation training program based on Leahy's emotional schema therapy method was administered, in 8 sessions for the experimental group. The distress Tolerance Scale (DTS) and Family Empowerment Scale (FES) were the instruments of the study. For data analysis, analysis of covariance was used. The results indicated that an emotion regulation training program based on Leahy's emotional schema therapy improved the empowerment and distress tolerance in mothers of children with autistic disorder (P<0.01) Manuscript profile
