Abstract
Aim and Background: Dyslexia has many effects on students' psychological status in addition to academic problems. Regarding this issue, the present study aimed to develop a Reading Improvement Comprehensive Program (RICP) and its effectiveness on the academic success and resilience of students with dyslexia.
Methods and Materials: This study was a semi-experimental design with pre-test, post-test and follow-up with unequal control group. For sample selection, 30 students were selected from among dyslexic students in Isfahan who had inclusion criteria and were randomly divided into two groups. The Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC), the Dyslexia Comprehensive Diagnostic Test (DCDT), the Academic Success Scale (ASS) and the Academic Resilience Scale (ARS) were used. The RICP for 16 weeks was provided only to students in the experimental group. Statistical calculations were performed using SPSS software.
Findings: The results indicated that the RICP had a significant effect on students' academic success and academic resilience (p= 0.001).
Conclusions: It can be stated that the RICP improves the academic success and resilience of students through consideration of new conceptualizations in the field of dyslexia as well as the expressed emotion by primary caregivers.

Abstract
Introduction: One of the factors influencing the preparation for addiction is personality traits and temperament. Considering that so far little study has been done on the relationship between different temperaments (mizaj) of Persian medicine and preparation for addiction, the present study aimed to investigate the role of these mizaj in studentschr('39') preparation for addiction.
Methods: The design of the present study was descriptive cross-sectional. A total of 241 students studying in the universities of Mobarakeh were selected by quota sampling method and answered the Iranian preparation for addiction scale and Mizaj determination questionnaire. After determining the Mizajes of the sample, the average preparation for addiction was compared with 9 types of mizaj using analysis of variance.
Results: The results of analysis of variance showed that the average preparation for addiction in at least one mizaj is significantly different from other mizajes. Examination of the results of LSD post hoc test showed that the mean of preparation for addiction in warm-temperate mizaj was significantly lower than the mean of preparation for addiction in cold-temperate, cold-wet, and cold-dry and hot-dry mizajes.
Conclusion: In general, the results of the present study show that people with all types of cold and hot-dry mizajes have the highest vulnerability and people with warm-temperate have the least vulnerability to addiction. These results were explained in the theoretical and research context and traditional medicine strategies in maintaining health and tempering mizajes, to protect the tendency to addiction in people with vulnerable mizajes and prevent the movement of non-vulnerable mizajes to the vulnerable were presented.

Abstract
Aim and Background: Today, the tendency of people, especially women, to perform various cosmetic surgeries has increased, and it is important to identify the causes of this problem. Therefore, the purpose of the present study was to investigate the role of cognitive and emotional factors in the Botox injection in women referring to skin and hair clinics.
Methods and Materials: Among women referring to skin and hair clinics in Isfahan city in 2020, 60 women applying for Botox injections were selected and 60 normal women were matched with the first group in terms of demographic variables. The participants in the research responded to the beliefs about appearance scale (BAAS), cognitive emotion regulation questionnaire (CERQ), and body image concern inventory (BICI). The data were analyzed by multivariate analysis of variance and discriminate analysis.
Findings: The results showed that the mean scores of the dimensions of dysfunctional beliefs about appearance, except for the dimension of progress, rumination from the maladaptive emotion regulation strategies, and dysmorphic concern, are significantly higher in women undergoing Botox injections than normal women. Also, the results of the discriminate analysis showed that rumination from the dimensions of cognitive emotion regulation strategies and feelings from the dimensions of beliefs about appearance could predict Botox injection in women.
Conclusions: In general, these results showed that rumination and negative feelings towards oneself due to skin folds and wrinkles in women are the most important predictors of Botox injection in women; therefore, these findings can lead to solutions to prevent the tendency of people to apply unnecessary beauty treatments.

Abstract
Aim and Background: The aim of the research is to investigate the relationship between cognitive functions and reading literacy in fourth grade primary school students.
Methods and Materials: The study method is descriptive-correlation. The statistical population includes all the male students of the fourth grade of primary school in Tehran who were studying in the academic year of 1402-1403, and 174 of them were purposefully selected as a sample. Reading literacy progress tests (Perles, 2016) and subtests from the fifth edition of the Wechsler Intelligence Test for Children (WISC-5) and the attention and concentration test IVA-2 were used for measurement.
Findings: The Pearson correlation coefficient results showed that there is a positive relationship between the components of cognitive performance and literary and information literacy of fourth grade elementary school students. The results of regression analysis showed that conceptual thinking with standard beta coefficient (0.451) had the highest regression effect on students' literary reading literacy. In addition, conceptual thinking with a standard beta coefficient (0.456) had the highest regression effect on students' information literacy, and processing speed, active memory and attention after conceptual thinking had the highest regression effect on students' information literacy.
Conclusions: By increasing the cognitive abilities of students, it becomes possible to perform multiple skills at the same time, and students with information literacy recognize the value of information in texts and have the ability to find and analyze information while reading and are able to understand the content.
