The purpose of this research was to examine the simple and multiple relationship between perfectionism, anxiety and depression with migraine headache in 300 students of Azad Islamic University of Ahvaz. In this research perfectionism, depression, trait-state anxiety considered as the predictive variables while migraine headache serves as criterion variable. The sample consisted of 150 girls and 150 boys that were selected by a random multistage methed from the Islamic University of Ahvaz. In this research four scales were applied that included Ahvaz Perfectionism Scale (APS), Ahvaz Migraine Headache Questionnaire (AMQ), Spilberger Anxiety Inventory (SM), and Beck Depression Inventory (BDI). The results of research indicated that perfec- tionism, anxiety and depression had positive and significant relationship with migranie headache (P <0/001). In addition, multiple correlation of perfectionism, anxiety and depression with migraine headache are statically significant.

The aim of this study was to determine the relationship of Abraham Maslow’s hierarchy of needs with school anxiety. (test anxiety, lack of confidence, lack of assertiveness, and physiological reactions) and academic performance of secondaiy school students of Izeh. In tlis study 311 student (156 boys and 155 girls) were selected via simple raiidom sampling. The hypotheses of the study maintained simple and multiple relationships between Maslow’s hierarchy of needs and school anxiety as well as academic performance. To verify the hypotheses, “Questonnaire of Hierarchy of Needs”, Phlip’s School Anxiety Scale, students’ academic performance marks (grades), and a short questionnaire to record the students’ socio-economic status were used. The findings, confirming the hypotheses, indicated that, after controlling for the effect of socio-economic status, there still are constant, significant relationships between “Needs” and school anxiety and academic performance.

This study was carried out to identify the major factors of acadmic uropout of high school male students in the city of Ahvaz, Iran. The sample consisted of 400 male students who were selected randomly from grades I to 4 of the three majors of mathematics, sciences, and humanities. The factors of academic dropout were identified by the statistical method of factor analysis. The hypotheses tested in this study claimed that the dropout factors have simple and multiple correlations with the number of permanent and temporary academic failures of the subjects. Two measures were used to collect the required data: a questionnaire containing 97 items concerning the academic dropout, and a measure to determine the number of students’ temporary and permanent academic failures at different grade levels. The factor analysis provided the following 10 factors: 1. curriculum problems, 2. family- health problems, 3. environmental- school problems, 4. social- behavioral problems, 5. growth problems, 6. examination problems, 7. textbook problems, 8. educational problems, 9. general problems, and 10. family conflicts. The results revealed that the four factors of carriculum, examination, textbooks, and educational problems had significant simple correlations with the number of students’ permanent failures. On the other hand, the stepwise multiple regression showed that only factor 6, i.e., examination problems, had an orthogonal relationship with the number of students’ permanent failures. The five factors of family- health, environmental school, educational, general problems, and family conflicts had significant simple correlations with the number of students’ temporory failures, while, the four factors of family- health, general, educational, and environmental- school problems had a multiple correlation with the number of students’ tempovary failures.
