The purpose of this study was comparing the clinical personality patterns and severe personality disorders in patients with HIV infection and normal individuals. The sample was consisted of 100 subjects (50 patients with HIV infection, 50 normal individuals) that were selected through available population. Subjects completed the Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory II (MCMI-II) and researcher-made questionnaire number 1 (pertaining to patients that affected to HIV infection due to implicated syring) and researcher-made questionnaire number 2 (pertaining to patients that have been infected to HIV infection due to unprotective sexual relationships). The MANOVA results indicated that there are meaningful differences in some clinical personality patterns (such as schizoid, avoidant, antisocial, aggressive, obsessive, passive- aggressive and self-defianting) and severe personality disorders (such as schizotypal and borderline) between research groups. Furthermore, the patients with HIV infection reported high rate of high- risk behaviors, background in prison, history of alcohol using and the cup history. On the base of findings of current research can concluded that certain personality patterns, particularly antisocial and borderline patterns increase vulnerability to HIV infection. Also the precise assessment of the personality disorders is essential to more effective prevention and treatment of patients with HIV infection.

Introduction: The aim of this experimental study is to determine the effects of inescapable shock exposures on subsequent escape-avoidance conditioning learning by goldfish (Carassius Auratus). Learned helplessness is a psychological condition in which a human being or an animal has learned to believe that it is helpless in a particular situation, even when it has the power to change its unpleasant or even harmful circumstance. Learned helplessness theory is the view that clinical depression and related mental illness result from a perceived absence of control over the outcome of a situation (Seligman, 1975).
Method: The goldfishes (N=50) with the length of about 5-6 cm each, were randomly assigned into two groups (experimental and control, n=25 in each group), and the experiment environment was an aquatic shuttle box measuring 70×40×30 cm which was designed by researcher. The gathered data were analyzed using the independent t-test.
Results: There were significant differences between 2 groups considering 6 Learned helplessness indicators, mean number of voidance response (P

The objective of this study was to investigate reliability and validity of a brief self-report scale (GAD-7) developed to identify probable cases of generalized anxiety disorder. The GAD-7 is a 7-item self-report questionnaire developed by Spitrzer in 2006, for screening for GAD and assessing its severity in clinical practice and research. 199 students selected from Shahed University for the study as non clinical group and 24 patients suffered from generalized anxiety disorder, selected from a psychiatric clinic in Tehran. Research tools employed in the study were Brief Measure for Assessing Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD-7), State-Trait anxiety inventory (STAI), Short-Form General Health Survey (SF-36) and anxiety subscale of Symptom Checklist (SCL- 90). The coefficient Alpha obtained for the total scale, and coefficient Alpha obtained for each part of the scale, and also the test–retest correlation obtained indicated a suitable reliability for the scale. Correlations calculated among GAD-7 and other instruments used in this study, suggested acceptable validity for the scale. Factorial analysis for the scale also showed one factor loading. And the scale was able to differentiate between clinical and non clinical group.
