Introduction: Ageing is a sensitive period of life that attention to the needs and problems of this stage is a social necessity. A common feature among elderly is death anxiety that has close relationship with loneliness and religious. Accordingly, The aim of this study was predicting death anxiety according to religious orientation and loneliness the elderly in Arak city. Method: This study was a descriptive correlational, conducted on 247 elderly who were selected by convenience sampling. Death Anxiety Scale, Alportʼs Religious Orientation, and loneliness were used for data gatheing. Data were analyzed using descriptive and statistics including Pearson correlation coefficient and regression. Results: The results showed a significant relationship between internal religious orientation (r=-0/66, p<0.01), external religious orientation (r=0/56, p<0.01) and loneliness (r=-0/54, p<0.01) with death anxiety. Beta coefficients for predictor variables indicated internal religious orientation -0/657, external religious orientation 0/446, loneliness 0/562 have significantly predictive capability of death anxiety of elderly (p<0.05). Also, the results showed religious orientation and loneliness can predict the changes in death anxiety potential up to 39%. Conclusion: The results of the research indicate that Internal religious orientation and loneliness have effective role in the amount of the death anxiety in the elderly.

Introduction: One of the consequences of aging is disturbance in maintaining balance that cause impairment and disability in elderyʼs functional activities and falls. All these cases increases the importance of preventing falls in the elderly. Method: This study is a semi experimental research with pretest-posttest plan, in which 30 male and female elderly between 70 and 79 years were randomly divided into two experimental and control groups. The experimental group did balance training with ground ladders balance (6 weeks, 3 sessions per week, each session 45 minutes). The control group also began to practice the only way to go. The control group only did walking exercise. Before and after 6 weeks of training, balance wae assessed with Falls Efficacy Scale International (FES-I) tests and Assessment of postural sway. Paired t-tests and analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was used to analyze the data, SPSS statistical package was used for all analyzes. In this study, significance level equal was considered to 95% and level of alpha was considered less than or equal to 0/05. Results: The results showed significant difference in obtained scores in the, Falls Efficacy Scale International (FES-I) and the size and distance of the center of pressure area range with open and closed eyes between pretest and posttest in the experimental group, (0/05≥ p).But results showed no significant for both variables in the control group (p>0/05). Conclusion: This study showed that exercise with ground ladders reduce can improve postural control and decrease the risk of falls in the elderly. Therefore it can be used to reduce risk of falls.

Introduction: Depression is a common chronic disease among the elderly. Depression would lead to decreased quality of life, disturbance in activity of daily living and personal, social and family roles. One of the factors that might prevent the occurrence of depression is tea consumption. Considering the controversial results of foreign studies and lack of national studies in this regard, the present study was conducted to evaluate the relationship between tea consumption and depression among the elderly. Method: This case-control study was conducted in 2016 on 260 elderly who referred to health centers of the Saghez city. Samples were selected using cluster random method. Using the Geriatric Depression Scale and confirmation of the psychiatrist, samples were divided into two groups (depressed and not depressed) and were adjusted regarding their age, gender, educational level and body mass index. Then the amount of consumed tea for each participant was recorded. Data were analyzed using SPSS software 18 and through descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: The mean and standard deviation of the participants’ age were 69.8 ± 6.35 years. Findings showed that 64.2% of the participants (169) consumed less than three cups of tea per day. A significant relationship was revealed between tea consumption and depression; this means that 1.5% of the depressed participants and 33.5% of the not-depressed participants were consuming at least 3 cups of tea every day. The risk of depression was 66% lower among those who consumed at least 3 cups of tea every day than those who consumed less than 3 cups of tea per day (p< 0.001, 95% CI: 0.267-0.437, OR = 0.341). Conclusion: The present study revealed a probable relationship between depression and tea consumption among the elderly. Considering the high prevalence of depression among the elderly, preventive interventions, such as consuming at least 3 cups of tea every day, is recommended.
抑郁症是老年人常见的慢性疾病。抑郁症会导致生活质量下降，日常生活活动和个人，社会和家庭角色的干扰。可能预防抑郁症发生的因素之一是饮茶。考虑到国外研究结果存在争议，国内研究缺乏，本研究旨在评估老年人饮茶与抑郁之间的关系。方法:对2016年在萨赫斯市卫生中心就诊的260名老年人进行病例对照研究。采用聚类随机方法选取样本。使用老年抑郁症量表和精神科医生的确认，将样本分为两组(抑郁和非抑郁)，并根据他们的年龄、性别、受教育程度和体重指数进行调整。然后记录每位参与者的饮茶量。数据分析采用SPSS软件18，采用描述性统计和推理统计。结果:年龄的平均值和标准差为69.8±6.35岁。调查结果显示，64.2%的参与者(169人)每天喝茶少于三杯。饮茶与抑郁之间存在显著关系;这意味着1.5%的抑郁参与者和33.5%的非抑郁参与者每天至少喝3杯茶。每天至少喝3杯茶的人患抑郁症的风险比每天少于3杯茶的人低66% (p< 0.001, 95% CI: 0.267-0.437, OR = 0.341)。结论:本研究揭示了老年人抑郁与饮茶之间的可能关系。考虑到老年人中抑郁症的高患病率，建议采取预防性干预措施，例如每天至少喝3杯茶。

Introduction: Instructional self-talk is one of the cognitive processes and strategies that is assumed to be one of the appropriate and applicable interferential methods which can be practiced to improve individuals’ performance. Hence, this study aimed to investigate the effect of instructional selftalk frequency on the older adult’s conduction of motor performance. Method: This study is of semi-experimental research which is comprised of pre, post and retention tests. 36 older adults from the city of Ahwaz were equally assigned to 3 groups. 1-repetition instructional self-talk, 3-repetition instructional self-talk and no self-talk; respectively distinguished the first, the second and the third group that is considered as the control group. Firstly, the participants took a pre-test. Afterwards they practiced basketball chest pass skill for 2 weeks, 3 sessions a week. After the last practice session, the post test was done and 48 hours following the post test, the retention test was done as well. The criteria to participate in the study were full awareness plus psychological and mental health. The data was analyzed with combined and within group variance analysis at the significance level of (p<0.05). Results: The findings of the study indicated that the practice of self-talk with 1-repetition in comparison with 3-repetition self-talk and no self-talk, had a positive effect on elders in conducting the chest pass during post and retention tests (p<0.05). Conclusion: Briefly speaking, less alternated self-talk may improve older adult performance in conducting skills that are attention requiring such as basketball chest pass.

This study aimed to determine the predictors of diabetes self-care in the elderly in Kerman based on the role of diabetic knowledge. Method: In this cross-sectional study, 374 elderly diabetic patients who had referred to health screening centers in Kerman were chosen via cluster sampling. To collect informations Toobert Glasgow’s diabetes self-efficacy scale and questionnaire based on diabetic knowledge was used. The validity and reliability of the questionnaire was confirmed. The data were analyzed using t test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation and linear regression analysis in SPSS software 17. Results: Self-care capacity in most of diabetic elderly was weak (61/3%). Age, education level, marital status, income, complication, medication and diabetic knowledge (P<0.001) were significantly associated with self-care behaviors. Diabetic knowledge could predict 57% of the variance of the self-care behaviors. Conclusion: According to the results of this study, diabetic knowledge can determine behaviors self care. So it is necessary to develop an educational intervention based on diabetic knowledge with the goal of properly managing diabetes in the elderly patients.
