Introduction: Insomnia is a major public concern and the most common sleep problem, the treatment of which has a special place in promoting well-being and performance. One of the new therapies in sleep interventions is direct transcranial movement. The present study was conducted to determine the effectiveness of transcranial direct movement on resilience, selective attention, concentration and effort in patients with insomnia. Method: The research design was quasi-experimental with a control group with pre-test and post-test. The statistical population included all students of Semnan University in the academic year 2009-2010 with a diagnosis of insomnia. 20 people were purposefully selected as a sample and were divided into two groups of control and experiment with random assignment. The transcranial direct motion device is used for intervention and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Questionnaire, Connor & Davidson Resilience and D2 test for measurements. The experimental group underwent intervention for 10 minutes for 10 minutes with a voltage of 1 mA and the control group underwent sham intervention. Results: The results of analysis of covariance show direct transcranial motion increase resilience, attention and focus and search, as well as improve insomnia. Conclusion: The research findings indicated that the direct movement of strategic transnationals in increasing resilience, selective attention, search and improving the level of sleep quality and can be used as a way to productivity.

Aims: The aim of the current study was to compare the effectiveness of two therapeutic methods of reality therapy and neurofeedback to improve the quality of life of breast cancer women. Methods: In a semi-experimental design, a number of 45 breast cancer patients were selected by the available sampling methods in 2018 in Amol city and randomly divided into three equal groups. Inform consent provided and inclusion/exclusion criteria were controlled for. The QLQ-C30 and QLQ-BR23 instruments in three stages of pretest, posttest and two months follow-up completed by all subjects. The first and second groups respectively were received the reality therapy and neurofeedback separately, while no intervention administered on the third group. Research data were analyzed using a multivariate analysis of covariance. Findings: Significant differences were found between the experimental groups and the waiting list group for the quality of life variables(p

Introduction: The aim of present study was investigating effect of rTMS on improvement working memory and symptom of bipolar disorder in subjects. Method: To do so, 30bipolar disorder were selected among Tehran clinics’ clients using Purposeful sampling. For assessing working memory, N-back test was conducted by all subject For assessing bipolar symptoms, Beck Depression Inventory and Young Mania Inventory was conducted by all subjects. Subjects were divided into two groups; 15 subjects received rTMS and rest of them that is called control group didn’t receive it. Training sessions were conducted for 20 days; each day one session -20 minutes. Data were analyzed using Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA). Findings: The results showed that effect of rTMS on working memory performance and bipolar symptoms improvemen thas been effective. Conclusion: The results of this study showed that rTMS can improve working memory performance and improve symptomsin subjects with bipolar disorder.
