Aim: The aim of this study was to predict the creativity of the engineers of Kermanshah Engineering Organization based on their personality and mental health factors. Method: This study was performed with Pearson correlation and multiple regressions, Cranach's Alpha coefficient, SPSS software version 20. A total of 375 engineers were selected based on Morgan table that completed 3 types of questionnaires: Torrance questionnaire (verbal section), (NEO-FFI) questionnaire and GHQ-28 questionnaire. The significant level in this study was considered as 0.05. This study was descriptive and correlation based. The sampling method was random. The study was a descriptive – correlative. Result: Correlation and regression analysis showed that there was a significant relationship between creativity (fluidity, flexibility, innovation, expansion) with five factors of personality (Neuroticism, Extraversion, Conscientiousness, Openness, Agreeableness) and mental health (physical symptoms, anxiety and insomnia, depression, social function).  So regression analysis showed that personality factors (neuroticism, extraversion, flexibility) are better models to predict creativity.

As for data collection, the Young's Internet addiction Test (IAT) and Goldberg General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-28) were utilized. Moreover, for data analysis, the descriptive statistics (percentage, mean, standard deviation) and inferential statistics (T-test, Pearson correlation coefficient, and multiple regression analysis) were employed in the environment of SPSS Statistical Software Version 23.0. Results: The results of the present study demonstrated that the total mean score of students’ internet addiction and mental health measured 3.81±0.88 and 2.56±0.33, respectively. The results also indicated that internet addiction correlared positively with depression whereas negatively with mental health (P<0.001). Besides, the results of multiple regression analysis revealed that the five major predictors of vulnerability to internet addictionin university students were as follows: the key reason for using the internet, faculty, depression, the main place for using the internet, and somatic symptoms. Conclusions: According to the findings of the present study, it can be concluded that students’ excessive use of the internet leads to depression, anxiety, and reduced mental health, thereby affecting their academic performance. Hence, it is suggested that further monitoring and control be exercised on how the internet is used by university students, and they should be informed of the detrimental effects of this technology in the case of misuse or overuse.

After presentation of DSM-IV, these symptoms already known as Pre-menstrual syndrome (PMS) were called Pre-menstrual dysphoric disorder (PM DD).The prevalence of PMS has been estimated to be about 40% to 70% but severe signs (PMDD) have lower prevalence. This study has evaluated the frequency of PMS and PMDD and some related factors in girls’ high schools.Methods and materialsIn this descriptive-analytic study, 800 students of girls’ high schools were chosen by randomized cluster sampling. A researcher made questionnaire assessing PMS and PMDD according to DSM.lV.TR criteria as well as a demographic questionnaire were administered to participants. Data were analyzed running SPSS software -version 11.5.FindingsFrequencies of PMS and PMDD were 41.5% and 9.4% respectively. The disorder was more frequent in students older than 16 years old. Mood symptoms were the most frequent presentation, followed by physical and behavioral symptoms. There was a lower frequency of the disorder despite a higher frequency of the syndrome in students with highly educated mothers. The frequency of PMS was higher in students with positive family history.DiscussionBecause of the potential adverse effects of PMS and PMDD on academic achievement and mental health of students, the high frequency of these problems need urgent attention. Planning mental health evaluations and interventions is necessary for these age group students. Diagnosis of severe cases and referring them should be considered in such programs.
