Today, having a university education has become a value and one of the important factors of social mobility, and for this reason, entering the university is an important event; Because it affects employment, income, social relationships, and possibly future spouse choices; Accordingly, the purpose of this study was to provide a causal model of entrance exam performance based on family performance and self-regulation and the mediating role of academic adjustment in students of Khorramabad public universities. In this descriptive correlational study, the statistical population consisted of all first year male and female undergraduate students in the experimental subgroup of October entrance of Khorramabad State Universities (Lorestan University and Medical Sciences) in the academic year 2021-2022. 300 people were selected as a sample by available sampling method. To evaluate the performance of students in the entrance exam, average percentages obtained in the entrance exam courses in 2020-2021, Mc Master (1983) Family performance questionnaire, Bouffard, Boisvert, Vezeau, & Larouche (1995) Self-regulation and Academic adjustment of Anderson, J. R., Guan & Koc (2016) questionnaires were used. The proposed model was evaluated using a path analysis. The results showed that all of the direct paths, except family performance path with entrance exam performance, were significant (p>0.05). Also, the indirect paths of family performance with entrance exam performance with the mediating role of academic adjustment and also the relationship of self-regulation with entrance exam performance with the mediating role of academic adjustment were significant (p=0.05). Based on the results of this study, the proposed model has a good fit and is an important step in identifying the factors affecting students' entrance exam performance.In this descriptive correlational study, the statistical population consisted of all first year male and female undergraduate students in the experimental subgroup of October entrance of Khorramabad State Universities (Lorestan University and Medical Sciences) in the academic year 1401-1400. 300 people were selected as a sample.

The family provides a loving and supportive environment for family members. If a family becomes involved with internal conflict, distortion, and violence between individuals, it loses its status as an emotional-psychological base for its members. In this regard, marital conflict is one of the problems that families face all over the world. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of emotion-based schema therapy and short-term solution-based therapy on psychological well-being and flexibility-action in women with marital conflict. The statistical population of this study included all women referring to psychological centers in Ahvaz in 2019 that 45 women were selected by purposive sampling and randomly divided into two experimental groups and one control group. The Marital Conflict Questionnaire (MCQ), Psychological Well-Being (PWB), and Action Flexibility (CD-RIS) questionnaires were used to collect data. The present study was an experimental field study with a pre-test-post-test design with a control group. The first experimental group received emotion-based schema therapy intervention (twelve 120-minutes sessions) and the second experimental group received short-term solution-based therapy (six 120-minutes sessions), and the control group did not receive any intervention. The results showed that both therapeutic interventions were effective in increasing psychological well-being and action flexibility in women with marital conflict who were referred to psychological centers. However, there was no significant difference between the effectiveness of the two therapies on psychological well-being and functional flexibility in the respondents. Therefore, it is possible to use emotion-based therapy schema and short-term solution-based therapies to increase psychological well-being and flexibility of action in these women.
