Abstract
Background: Migraine is a chronic neurological disorder that affects people's quality of life and ability to participate in work, family, and social affairs. Despite the extensive research in the field of perception of migraine, no comprehensive explanatory pattern has yet been suggested to identify this disease. Aims: The present study, through a qualitative perspective, aimed to explore the effective factors on pain experience in terms of physical, psychological, cognitive, social, and spiritual aspects and ultimately, provide a multi-dimensional pattern to explain this disease. Method: This study was conducted using a qualitative approach and applying content analysis method (Graneheim & Lundman, 2004). Participants consistet of 19 female patients selected by purposive sampling. The data were collected using semi-structural interviews. All interviews were reviewed and categories were extracted based on semantic similarities. Results: The process of pain experience of migraine is often initiated by a trigger and creates various reactions which lead to the improvement or severity of pain based on the individuals’ coping. In this process, psychological factors particularly play a critical role. Therefore, patients with migraine are not only engaged in physical symptoms, but also they have serious conflicts in expressing or hiding pain while encountering others. Conclusions: In the context of migraine, individuals’ negative evaluations which are consequences of their mental negative self-appraisals raise concerns. On the other hand, it is possible that others induce these negative evaluations and expose the patient to negative consequences. Given that migraine headache is both a physical and a psychological variable, the treatment should simultaneously include both medication and improving symptoms, and solving problems that affect the individual’s psyche and intensify his/her migraine.

Abstract
Background: Methods of achieving mindfulness have been implemented by slowing down movement, creating stillness, and following the traditional teachings of Buddhism. The long-term effectiveness of traditional mindfulness methods on anxiety and depression has been associated with conflicting results. Recently, bodily, dynamic, and objective interventions while moving and playing on the unconscious and strengthening consciousness for the integration of mind and body have been suggested. Can these therapeutic exercises change the abnormal patterns of an anxious and depressed personality?
Aims: This study aimed to study the effectiveness of mindful sensorimotor interventions in treating abnormal personality patterns leading to anxiety and depression in clients seeking psychotherapy.
Methods: This research is an explanatory mixed-method study. The first study was a quasi-experimental study with pre-test and post-test. The statistical population of the study was the clients of psychology clinics in Tehran. a sample of 20 (7 women and 13 men) of the clients of a psychology clinic in Tehran responded to Castello-Comrey (1967) anxiety and depression questionnaires before and after eight weeks of mindful sensorimotor interventions (Kashanaki et al., 2021). In the second study, during and after mindful sensorimotor interventions, personality disorders, mental health, and personality traits predicting anxiety and depression in one client were assessed by the SWAP personality test (Shedler and Westen, 2007).
Results: The results of a correlated t-test showed that mindful sensorimotor interventions are effective in reducing anxiety (p < 0.00001) and depression (p < 0.05). The second study showed that the patient changes his pathological personality patterns and personality disorder by interventions; this intervention transformed immature defenses into more mature defenses and increased mental health factors in him, which led to a decrease in anxiety and depression.
Conclusion: The results of this study showed the effectiveness of mindful sensorimotor interventions in reducing anxiety and depression. These challenging interventions and a variety of games are likely to empower and increase the capacity of the mind and body and motivate them to endure anxiety and cope with depression.

Abstract
Background: Chronic kidney disease is one of the widespread public health problems. This disease is associated with extensive cognitive deficits, among which visual attention, psychomotor speed and executive function can be mentioned. In most of the researches conducted in this field, the combined view in measuring executive functions and evaluating both types of objective and subjective executive functions has not been used, and this has hindered the acquisition of integrated knowledge in this field.
Aims: The aim of the present study was to compare objective and subjective executive functions between chronic kidney dialysis patients and normal people.
Methods: The design of present study is causal comparative type (ex post facto) design and the population of the present study includes all chronic kidney dialysis patients who went to Labbafinezhad Hospital and Clinic in Tehran for treatment in 1401 and 1402. Gpower software was used to determine the sample size, and 39 people were considered for each group, and these people were sampled in a purposeful manner and completed the research tool, which included the Cambridge Neuropsychological Test (Cambridge Cognition, 2012) and the deficits in executive functioning scale (Barkley, 2012), and the research data was statistically analyzed by Multivariate analysis of variance using SPSS 21 software.
Results: The results of multivariate analysis of variance showed that there is a significant difference between the two groups of chronic kidney dialysis patients and normal patients in terms of the objective executive functions of visual-spatial span, the number of spatial working memory errors, problems solved with minimum movement and average movements in hard problems. Also, there was a significant difference between the two groups in terms of subjective executive functions of self-organization/problem solving and self-control/inhibition (p<0.05).
Conclusion: According to the results of present study, it is suggested to pay special attention to the role of objective executive functions and some subjective executive function in the early identification of structural and functional brain damage in chronic kidney dialysis patients.
