In our country, the traditional medicine, with its rich resources and scientific support as well as its considerable compatibility with the health orders of Islam, and the recommendations of the Holy Prophet and Imams, has been regarded by scientists and people for a long time. Using Iranian traditional medicine and the rich and valuable treasures of this precious heritage has useful and researchable issues in order to enrich human knowledge and scientific advances, and to open new windows into the field of medicine. To be expanded, the traditional medicine needs to be organized, its education has to be centralized, and its educational content should be based on scientific documents and evidence so that academic communities could be satisfied and possible misuses in the field of complementary and traditional medicine could be prevented. Establishing the secretariat of the complementary and traditional medicine educational council in the Ministry of Health, medicinal herbs center, and traditional medicine school seems to be an effective measure to institutionalize and organize theses sciences in Iran. Necessary planning to employ the essential and efficient staff can be one of the important duties of this secretariat, and it can be operational by compiling educational planning for MSc and PhD courses on traditional medicine. The aim of this major is to train specialists familiar with popular principles and methods of prevention, treatment, education, and applicable researches in Iranian traditional medicine. Consequently, in addition to using the newest information of the classical medicine, this method can be used to provide, restore, and promote health in patients and societies when its application is useful for them and it promotes human knowledge. Ultimately, the three factors affecting organization and development include compiling the curriculum and teaching these sciences in universities considering academic standards, extracting results based on researches and reliable documents and evidences, and informing academic communities clearly, properly, and precisely.}, Keywords = {Traditional medicine, Health system, Complementary medicine}, volume = {5}, Number = {1}, pages = {1-2}, publisher = {}, url = {http://jrh.gmu.ac.ir/article-1-437-en.html}, eprint = {http://jrh.gmu.ac.ir/article-1-437-en.pdf}, journal = {Journal of Research and Health}, issn = {2423-5717}, eissn = {2423-5717}, year = {2015} } @article{ author = {Soleimani, Samira and Rezaei, Ali Mohammad and Kianersi, Farahnaz and Hojabrian, Hanie and KhaliliPaji, Kokab}, title = {Developement and validation of flourishing questionnaire based on seligman\'s model among Iranian university students}, abstract ={The main purpose of this study was designing a questionnaire to measure human flourishing based on Seligman’s model.

In developed countries , one in every nine women will be diagnosed with this type of cancer. The prevalence of breast cancer is increasing and compared with similar patients in Western countries are about 10 years younger. The aim of this research is Investigation breast self-examination based on stage of change (SOC) in those volunteers in Mashhad, Iran, 2013.   Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 410 health volunteers above age 20 years. They are people that in order to promote healthy behaviors in society , learned hygiene skills and training necessary courses and they transfer their know ledges to at least 50 families . They were selected by stratified sampling method from population covered by urban health centers of Mashhad. Each of 1 to 5 health centers of Mashhad was considered as a class. Cases were selected and studied from each class, proportional to the number of covered volunteers of that health center. Data were collected by self-report questionnaire and analyzed using SPSS software version 18 and statistical t-test, Spearman and Pearson correlation coefficient, linear regression. P value less than 0.05 was considered significance.   Results : The means’s of age participant was 34 . 7±9 . 2 In review the prediction Breast Self- examination behavior based on stage of change, it was shown that structure of stage of change 54 percent can be variable predictive in Breast Self- examination.   Conclusion: This study had shown the effectiveness of structure of stage of change to emphasize the behavior related to BSE. Thus, it seems to be a theory as a framework for designing educational programs to improve women's health and reduce deaths from breast cancer.   Keywords: stage of change, Breast self-examination, those volunteering  }, Keywords = {stage of change, Breast self-examination, those volunteering}, volume = {5}, Number = {1}, pages = {13-20}, publisher = {}, url = {http://jrh.gmu.ac.ir/article-1-304-en.html}, eprint = {http://jrh.gmu.ac.ir/article-1-304-en.pdf}, journal = {Journal of Research and Health}, issn = {2423-5717}, eissn = {2423-5717}, year = {2015} } @article{ author = {Darvishi, Shetav and Merati, Alireza and Amirpour, Borzoo}, title = {Effectiveness of emotional intelligence on mood profile in female student athletes}, abstract ={  Abstract   Introduction : Sport is an emotional experience for many athletes and Negative emotions can hurt performance both physically and mentally, thus an athlete's ability to maintain control of their emotions before, during and after competition is essential to successful performance. The present study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of emotional intelligence components training on Athlete and non-Athlete girl Students’ Profile of Mood States.   Methods: The pretest, posttest randomized control group quasi­ experimental design was adopted for the study. Using multi -stage cluster sampling 120 girl students (60 athlete, 60non athlete) were selected in Tehran, Then they were replaced in the two experimental groups and two control groups.

Specially, greater physical activity is known to prevent and reduce the risk of many cardio-metabolic diseases. Walking is used under lifestyle conditions as a movement current pattern, especially in several social jobs. The aim of present study is to evaluate the relationship step per day with cardio-metabolic risk factors , and the effects of physical activity volume on this variables. Methods: daily step volumes voluntarily were measured in the health postmenopausal women(n=40) by the electronic pedometer. Subjects (aged 55.9 ±4.6) divided by as active group(AG =20) and sedentary group(SG=20). Cardio-metabolic variables analyzed with the standards methods. Results: Daily step averages in the AG(8022±2659 step/day) significantly was higher than SG (3450±913 step/day) (p<0.001). ). There was a significant difference in body composition variables (BMI,%BF, WHR) among 2 groups and significant inverse correlations were found between activity and body composition variables in women(p<0.05).

This study was aimed to determine risk factors associated with dangerous behavior of driving in flood and related behavioral modeling. This study was descriptive-analytical. Target population was 150 residents over 18 years old of Quchan city. Data was gathered by a questionnaire. chi-square test and logistic regression analysis were used to data analysis and estimating model. Chi-square test results showed that the three variables: level of education, reaction to flood warnings and knowledge about the main causes of deaths in floods had significant relationship with variable of behavior of driving in floods. in the estimated logistic regression model, two variables, level of education and reaction to flood warnings, had predicting value for behavior of driving in floods. Results show the likelihood of incidence of risky driving behavior among those without college education when exposure to flooding is more than 2.6 times of those with college education. In addition, people who donot take flood warnings seriously 2.5 times more likely than others to express the risky driving behavior. By identifying high risk groups in flood-porn areas, some interventions and training programs can be set to reduce dangerous behavior of driving in floods.}, Keywords = {driving in flood, risk factors, logistic regression }, volume = {5}, Number = {4}, pages = {70-76}, publisher = {}, url = {http://jrh.gmu.ac.ir/article-1-519-en.html}, eprint = {http://jrh.gmu.ac.ir/article-1-519-en.pdf}, journal = {Journal of Research and Health}, issn = {2423-5717}, eissn = {2423-5717}, year = {2016} } @article{ author = {Asghari, Farhad and Akbari, Bahman and Shadman, Ruhollah and Saadat, Sajj}, title = {The effect of cognitive-behavioral training on quality of life and aggression among drug addicted prisoners}, abstract ={Introduction: Empowering and enhancing the life quality for drug addicts are effective steps to lead and assist them to absolute quitting of drugs.

In responding to the quality of life scale and Aggression Scale, 30 drug addicts who gained a score lower than the cut off score quality of life scale in (lower than 63) and in Aggression Scale (higher than 73) were chosen and divided into control and experimental groups of 15 persons randomly. Then, before intervention sessions, both groups responded to the World Health Organization Quality of life Questionnaire (1998) and Aggression Scale (1992). The experimental group was under cognitive-behavioral trainings for12 sessions (each session 75 minutes) and control group did not receive any intervention. In order to analyzing data, the SPSS 18 software, and Levine and multivariate covariance tests were used. Results: Results of Levine test also showed that experimental and control groups are comparable to each other. Accordingly, the results of covariance analysis showed that there are significant differences in quality of life scores and aggression between the experimental and control groups (P<0/01). Conclusion: The results of the present study showed that the cognitive-behavioral trainings improve the quality of life and level of aggression among drug addicts.
