- چکیده انگلیسی: Background & aim: Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) includes different symptoms that appear periodically throughout the luteal phase of the menstrual period. The PMS has not been properly investigated as an influencing factor of marital satisfaction. Thus the purpose of this study was to assess the relationship between PMS and its symptoms with women's marital satisfaction.
Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 246 women referred to health centers in Yazd, Iran. The data were collected through the Index of Marital Satisfaction and Premenstrual Syndrome Screening Tool and analyzed in SPSS software (version 18) using the Chi-Square test.
Results: According to the results, "somatic symptom disorders, such as breast pain, headache, muscle pain, arthritis, bloating, and weight gain" (%22.8) and "anger and irritability" (%21.5) obtained the highest frequency in terms of syndrome severity. With regard to the effect of symptoms on daily life, the strongest impact was on "the relationship with the family" (%10.6). The results showed that the levels of marital dissatisfaction among women with PMS (P=0.013) were higher, compared to the non-affected population.
Conclusion: The severe symptoms of this syndrome disrupt family relationship leading to marital dissatisfaction. Therefore, the women and their families are required to receive the required training for better communication in this period.- انتشار مقاله: 21-04-1397

- چکیده انگلیسی: Background
The world-wide prevalence of overweight and obesity among children and adolescents has reached an alarming level and become a major health problem in today’s world. The aim of this study was to identify the stages and processes of change as well as their relationship with weight controlbased on a Trans- theoretical Model (TTM) in overweight and obese Iranian adolescents.
Materials and Methods
This cross-sectional study was conducted with participation of 250 overweight and obese adolescents selected through cluster sampling method fromMarch to April, 2016. In order tocollect data, a researcher-made questionnaire based on TTM ؟The obtained data were entered into SPSS version19.0 software.
Results: The majority of participants (80%) were in inactive stages (pre-contemplation, contemplation, and preparation) of change for weight control, while only 20% of them were in active stages (action and maintenance). Also, results showed that a significant differencebetween stages and processes of change so that individuals' progress across stages of change frompre-contemplation to maintenance increased cognitive and behavioral processes’ scores (p < 0.05).

- چکیده انگلیسی: Background: Considering the importance of preventing smoking hookah in adolescents and the lack of a standard questionnaire in this field, this study aimed to develop and validate a Persian Preventing Hookah Smoking (PHS) Questionnaire in adolescents based on the Protection Motivation Theory.
Materials and Methods: After conducting focus groups discussion, reviewing the literature and scientific resources, an initial self-administered questionnaire including 68 questions was designed and then validated. For face validity, the questionnaires were evaluated by 10 experts considering difficulty, inappropriateness, and ambiguity of the phrases. Both quality and quantity methods were used to evaluate the content validity. The content validity ratio (CVR) and the content validity index (CVI) were determined by a group of experts (10 people). Its internal consistency was estimated and its reliability was determined by the test-retest method. Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) was done using Amos 21.0.
Results: From 68 questions in the initial questionnaire, eventually 64 questions remained in the final questionnaire. The CVR value for most questions, except for 3 questions, was above 0.79 and the CVI value of all questions was above 0.79. The Cronbach’s alpha coefficient was 0.79-0.91 and the test-retest coefficient was 0.81-0.91. The results of CFA showed the following values, Chi-square (x2): 1254.712, degree of freedom (df): 3.456, adjusted goodness of fit index (AGFI): 0.964, the root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA): 0.072 which indicates the appropriateness of the tool among Iranian adolescents.
Conclusion: The results of this study showed that this Persian questionnaire about preventing hookah smoking in adolescents based on the Protection Motivation Theory has a good validity and reliability and can be used in investigating about prevention of hookah smoking in adolescents.- انتشار مقاله: 12-02-1397

- چکیده:
- چکیده انگلیسی: Background: Skin cancer is among the most prevalent cancers in Iran and worldwide. Due to the nature of work, sailors are constantly exposed to the ultraviolet rays of the sun, which in the long run damages their skin and raises the chances of skin cancer. Thus, the present research aimed to predict the skin cancer protective behaviors among sailors in the south of Iran in the light of the protection motivation theory. Materials and Methods: The present analytical, cross-sectional research was conducted on 360 sailors in Bandar-Bushehr selected randomly from 4 border healthcare centers. To collect the required data, a reliable and valid questionnaire based on the protection motivation theory was used. The data were analyzed in SPSS21 using descriptive and inferential statistics including Pearson correlation coefficient and linear regression analysis. Results: Pearson correlation coefficient showed a statistically significant positive correlation between protection motivation, perceived severity, fear, reward on the one hand and a statistically significant negative correlation between protection motivation and rewards and response costs. All constructs of protection motivation explained 43% of the variance of skin cancer protective behaviors. Among the influential predictors, perceived self-efficacy showed to be the strongest (β=0.328). Conclusion: Considering the effectiveness of the protection motivation theory in determining skin cancer preventive behaviors among sailors, it can be concluded that this theory can be used as a framework in planning health education and promotion programs to motivate sailors to adopt more skin cancer protective behaviors.
