Cognitive emotion regulation, resiliency and sleep disorder are effective on suicidal ideation Objectives: The purpose of this study was to determine the role of cognitive emotion regulation, resiliency and sleep disorder in predicting suicidal ideation in addicts receiving treatment. Materials and Methods: The statistical population of the study included all addicts under treatment, who referred to the addiction recovery centers of Rasht from September to December 2018. A total of 180 individuals were selected using the cluster sampling method. The following instruments were used in this research: the Suicide ideation Scale by Beck et al. (1979), the cognitive emotion regulation questionnaire by Garnefsky et al. (2001), Conner-Davidson resilience scale (2003), and Pittsburgh sleep quality index (1989). The Pearson correlation coefficient as well as multiple regression were used to analyze the collected data.  Results: The results showed a relationship between cognitive emotion regulation (positive and negative), resilience, and sleep disorders and suicidal ideation. According to the results, there was a negative and significant relationship between positive emotion regulation and resilience with suicidal ideation at the level of 0.01, whereas there was a positive and significant relationship between the negative cognitive emotion regulation and sleep disorders, and suicidal ideation at the level of 0.01. Sleep disorders, resilience, and negative cognitive emotion regulation were the best predictors of suicidal ideation and Sleep disorders, resilience, and negative cognitive emotion regulation at the level of 0.01 could explain about 20.7% of the variance of suicidal ideation. Conclusion: It can be concluded that cognitive emotion regulation, resilience and sleep disorder can predict suicidal ideation of addicts under treatment.  http://ajnpp.umsha.ac.ir/article-1-132-en.pdf 2018-08-01 99 106 10.32598/ajnpp.5.3.99 Suicidal ideation Sleep-wake disorders Emotions Cognition Matin Jahanchi ravanpajuh@gmail.com 1 Department of Psychology, Tonekabon Branch, Islamic Azad University, Tonekabon, Iran.

Materials and Methods: The present research was an experimental study with a pretest-posttest design and a control group. The statistical population included all of the women with substance abuse disorder who referred to the addiction recovery centers in Rasht from November to December 2019. Using a randomized sampling, 60 individuals were selected and assigned into the experimental and control groups (n=30 for each group) and completed the Young Schema Questionnaire - Short Form Version 3 (YSQ-S3). The experimental group was subjected to the schema therapy, whereas the control group did not receive any intervention.

Results:  The results showed that group schema therapy decreased early maladaptive schemas, including disconnection and rejection (P<0.01), self-control and impaired performance (P<0.01), impaired limits (P<0.003), and over vigilance and inhibition (P<0.001). Conclusion: Based on the results, schema therapy reduced the dimensions of early maladaptive schemas, such as disconnection and rejection, self-control and impaired performance, impaired limits, and over vigilance and inhibition in drug-dependent women, however it did not decrease the other-directness dimension. http://ajnpp.umsha.ac.ir/article-1-137-en.pdf 2018-08-01 123 130 10.32598/ajnpp.5.3.123 Female Psychotherapy Substance-related disorders Shahram Tirandaz sskrk92@gmail.com 1 Department of Psychology, Rasht Branch, Islamic Azad University, Rasht, Iran.
