Abstract
Background: Relationship disengagement is the first step in the process that eventually leads to marital dissolution and is related to marital distress, poor communication, and mental health such as depression. Despite most of studies conducted regarding the effectiveness of couple therapy methods on emotional disengagement in Iran, a coherent summary and analysis of the types of couple therapy effective methods on relationship disengagement are not available.
Aims: This study aimed to investigate couple therapy methods on relationship disengagement for Iranian studies.
Methods: This study was descriptive and is a systematic review study according to the implementation method. The statistical population was all studies related to the purpose of the study published from 2003 to 2022. Out of 90 studies that were identified after searching and screening, 23 studies were evaluated for data extraction. This review study searched for Iranian studies using the keywords "couple therapy, marriage, effectiveness, couple, clinical trial, emotional divorce, couple burnout, marital disaffection, and marital frustration" and the multiple databases SID, and MagIran were screened. Data analysis was done using descriptive statistics of frequency and percentage.
Results: After checking the quality of the articles and considering the inclusion criteria, 23 eligible articles were reviewed in line with the objectives of the present study. The results of the studies showed that couple therapy was effective in relationship disengagement (p< 0.05). Most of the studies were related to the effect of couple therapy based on reality therapy, emotion-focused couple therapy, cognitive-behavioral couple therapy, and acceptance and commitment therapy.
Conclusion: Based on research findings, the results of these review studies showed that couples therapy interventions have a significant effect on relationship disengagement.

Abstract
Background: Multiple intelligences, as a well-known psychological theory, play a significant role in various decision-making processes, including career path decisions. Despite numerous studies in this area, considerable research gaps remain in understanding how different types of intelligence influence career decision-making.
Aims: This study aims to review and analyze existing research on the role of multiple intelligences in career decision-making.
Methods: The method of the present research was a systematic review of documents. The population of this study consisted of all scholarly and research resources related to the concepts of the role of Multiple Intelligences in career decision-making. These resources included academic articles, books, research reports and critical analyzes published in the period from 2000 to 2024 in reliable scientific databases and international publications. The sampling method in this study was non-random and purposeful. Data analysis was done using thematic analysis method.
Results: The findings reveal that various types of multiple intelligences, such as logical-mathematical, interpersonal, and intrapersonal intelligences, have distinct impacts on career decision-making. Specifically, interpersonal intelligence significantly influences career choices involving social interactions, while logical-mathematical intelligence is more relevant to technical and analytical careers.
Conclusion: This study highlights that incorporating the multiple intelligences framework can enhance the understanding of career decision-making processes and assist career counselors and human resource planners in offering strategies aligned with individuals’ capabilities.

Abstract
Background: Given the growing importance of mental health and well-being as key indicators of sustainable development and quality of life, identifying and promoting effective approaches to enhance these critical dimensions has always been a major concern for researchers and policymakers. In recent years, tourism—especially with an emphasis on nature-based experiences and cultural interactions—has attracted attention as a promising non-pharmacological intervention for improving mental health and increasing individual and social well-being.
Aims: The aim of the present study was to review the role of tourism in promoting mental health and well-being by systematically examining the evidence and underlying mechanisms.
Methods: This systematic review examined research findings from 2020 to 2025, using databases such as SID, Springer, Scopus, PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar. Keywords including tourism, mental health, well-being, psychological well-being, nature tourism, and tourism experience were used in the search process. Based on the inclusion criteria, out of 40 reviewed articles, 30 were included in the study. The results were classified, summarized, and reported using Excel software.
Results: The results indicated that tourism, particularly nature-based tourism, has a significant and positive impact on enhancing mental health and increasing individual well-being. The systematic review of recent studies suggests that participation in tourism activities can substantially reduce symptoms of depression, anxiety, and stress, while also improving mood, increasing happiness, and reducing rumination. Furthermore, evidence shows that tourism plays an important role in improving quality of life and preventing cognitive disorders and dementia among the elderly. In addition, tourism experiences, by strengthening cultural identity and providing opportunities for social and cultural interaction, further enhance the psychological and social dimensions of well-being. These findings highlight the importance of considering the multidimensional nature of well-being and the necessity for evidence-based policymaking to develop inclusive and health-oriented tourism initiatives.
