Abstract
Background and Aim: Emotional intelligence is one of the psychological dimensions which plays an important role in emotional regulation. In this study the role of spiritual orientation in predicting cognitive emotion regulation strategies among the students of Tabriz University of Medical Sciences was investigated.
Materials and Methods: This was a cross-sectional study conducted on 250 students of Tabriz University of Medical Sciences selected through simple random sampling in 2015. Data were collected using the cognitive emotion regulation strategies questionnaire (Garnfsky et al., 2002) and the spiritual intelligence questionnaire (Shahidi and Farajnia, 1391) and analyzed using SPSS 23, the statistical tests being the Pearson correlation coefficient and canonical correlation.
Results. A statistically significant positive association was found between spiritual attitude and emotion regulation. Based on canonical correlation, of the two canonical roots only root 1 was significantly associated with emotion regulation (p= 0.03; f, 0.90), explaining 7% of the emotion regulation variance. The second root had no statistically significant correlation with emotion regulation.
Conclusion: The deeper the religious beliefs of a person, the higher he will value himself and the world around. Consequently, he will have more satisfaction in life and, therefore, can better control his emotions and feelings.

Abstract
Background and Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of emotional working memory education on the ability to control emotions and cognitive emotion regulation in women hurt by infidelity.
Materials and Methods: This was a pre-test, post-test and follow-up single-blind intervention study. From among the women hurt by infidelity referring to the Social Emergency Department of Sabzevar City, Iran between September and January 2021, a sample of 42 were randomly selected and assigned to either an experimental (n = 21) or a control group (n = 21). They completed 2 questionnaires, namely, an Inhibition of Emotions Questionnaire (27) and a Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (29), initially and after the intervention. The education was carried out in 20 sessions using emotional working memory education software (32). The data were analyzed using the repeated measures multivariate analysis of variance.
- : Analysis of the data showed that emotional working memory education can affect the ability to control emotions and regulate cognitive emotion in women hurt by infidelity.
- : A complementary treatment strategy for controlling emotions and cognitive emotion regulation in women hurt by infidelity is emotional work-based education. Practical implications of the findings of this study were discussed.

Abstract
Background and Aim: Considering the harms and dangers of addiction and the fact that many people are trapped in it every day, it is important to identify the variables that affect it. The aim of this study was to predict the tendency to addiction among university students based on initial maladaptive schemas and cognitive emotion regulation.
Materials and Methods: This was a cross-sectional descriptive-analytical study. The statistical population consisted of all the 3548 students of Gonbad Kavous Payame-Noor University in the academic year 2019-20, from among whom a sample of 384 students was selected using the one-stage cluster random sampling method. The data collection tools were the following 3 questionnaires: early maladaptive schema (Young, 2005), cognitive emotion regulation (Garnefski & Kraaij, 2001) and addiction tendency (Wade and Butcher, 1992). Pearson correlation coefficient and multiple linear regression were used to analyze the data using the SPSS software version 22 at a statistical significance level of 0.05.
Results: Data analysis showed correlations between addiction and the following variables: excessive ringing in the ears (r = 0.491, p = 0.001), being guided by others (r = 0.523, p = 0.001), disturbed constraints (0.001 >, r = 0.426 p), impaired function (r = 0.389, p = 0.001), discontinuation (r = 0.406, p <0.001) and cognitive emotion regulation (p> 475, <0.001). 0r =). In addition, the results of multiple linear regression analysis showed the following: excessive ringing (β= 0.203, p = 0.001), being guided by others (β= 0.274, p = 0.001), disturbed constraints (β= 0.261, p = 0.001), impaired function (β= 0.229, p = 0.001), discontinuation (β= 0.193, p <0.001) and cognitive emotion regulation (β= 0.315, p = 0.001).
Conclusion: Based on the findings of this study, the average tendency to addiction among university students can be predicted by changing the initial maladaptive schemas and improving the cognitive emotional regulation.
