Introduction: According to the prevalence of eating disorders among youth population and their disturbances in various fields, the present study examined the relationship between social anxiety, body image perception and depression with bulimia nervosa and anorexia nervosa in young people. Materials and Methods: The sample includes 200 freshman male and female students of Science and Research Branch, Islamic Azad University, Khuzestan in academic year of 2014-2015 who were selected multi-level randomized method. They responded to Eating Disorder Inventory (AEDI) of Coker and Rogers, Leibowitz Social Anxiety Scale (LSAS), Beck Depression Inventory and Fishers Body Image Perception. Canonical correlation coefficients were used for statistical analysis. Results: Canonical coefficients obtained in this study were 6.0 (P<0.0001). The results show that the first set of variables and a second set of variables had a significant relationship with each other so social anxiety, perceived body image and depression were predictors for bulimia and anorexia. Depression of the first series showed the highest correlation with anorexia nervosa of the second set. Conclusion: It seems that social anxiety, perceived body image and depression can be considered as predictors for bulimia and anorexia in youth population.

Introduction: Child abuse remains a significant public health and social problem in developing countries. Studies on this subject could provide valuable information regarding the scope and nature of this phenomenon and its impact on public health. This study aimed to determine the demographic characteristics and risk factors of children and parents involved in subtypes of child abuse in a psychosocial support department. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in a pediatric hospital in Bandar Abbas, Iran from 2011 to 2013. The understudy population consisted of 519 child abuse cases that had been referred to psychosocial support departments for further investigations. Data regarding demographic characteristics and risk factors were collected using a questionnaire. Data analyzed through descriptive statistics, Logistic regression and SPSS software version 16. Results: From the total, 315 (60.7%) were boys and 355 (68.4%) were under 6 years. A total of 152 (29.3%) parents had mental disorders. The most common type of abuse in children was neglect (77%). Physical abuse was more commonly done by working mothers. Study results also revealed that physical abuse was less prevalent among children of less educated mothers and fathers. Physical abuse was also more common among children of parents with mental disorders and single parent families. Conclusion: This study showed that demographic characteristics of the child and parents and some related risk factors have a significant effect on child abuse subtypes.

Then, the groups of divorced and non-divorced women with low marital satisfaction participated in 24 sessions of psychodynamic psychotherapy. To collect data, Cattel’s 16-item questionnaire and Enrich marital satisfaction questionnaire were used. Data analyzed through multivariate analysis of covariance (MANCOVA). Results: The results of this study indicated that training of psychodynamic psychotherapy caused a significant change in personality traits in divorced women and in married women with low marital satisfaction.
