Introduction Students are the future capital of the country and it is important to pay attention to their academic problems. Some students have problems such as academic burnout and social anxiety. Academic burnout can be defined as a negative emotional, physical and mental reaction to prolonged study that results in exhaustion, frustration, lack of motivation and reduced ability in school Social anxiety is the fear of social situations that involve interaction with other people. A variable in related to academic burnout and social anxiety is early maladaptive schemas. An early maladaptive schema is a pervasive self-defeating or dysfunctional theme or pattern of memories, emotions, and physical sensations, developed during childhood or adolescence and elaborated throughout one's lifetime, that often has the form of a belief about the self or the world. According to what was said, the purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship early maladaptive schemas of Students with their academic burnout and social anxiety. Method The research was descriptive correlational study. The statistical population included all secondary high school girl students of Ramsar City who were educated in the academic years 1397-1398. There are 1238 students in the statistical population. 288 students of the population were selected by multistage cluster sampling according to Morgan table. At first 6 secondary high schools were randomly selected among all secondary high schools of Ramsar city. Then from each secondary high school, 2 classes were randomly selected. Data gathering tools included three questionnaires: early maladaptive schema questionnaires by Yang and Brown (1999), educational burnout questionnaire by Breso et al (2007) and Jerabek social anxiety questionnaire (1996). This study describes the data collected from a variety of statistical indices including descriptive statistics including mean, standard deviation, and formulation of tables. In the inferential statistics section, the canonical correlation model was used to test the research hypotheses Results The results showed that the variables of early maladaptive schemes and educational burnout and social anxiety sets were significantly correlated with canonical correlations. Also, in relation to predictor and dependent variables, it can be said that "insufficient self-control" and "entitlement/grandiosity" are the best predictors of the criterion set, ie academic burnout and social anxiety. Discussion According to the results, we can understand that early maladaptive schemas play an important role in the occurrence of other variables. Therefore, the directors of the Education Organization and people who are related to this field can use these results and improve the psychological status of students through continuous consultation with students in order to reduce their pressures and improve students' academic and social performance to help the community.

This study examined the effects of assertive training on self-esteem, mental health, assertiveness, and social anxiety of anxious high school boys in Abvaz. The original sample was 400 students who were randomly selected from Abvaz high schools. From this group, 90 students were diagnosed as anxious and were randomly assigned to the following three groups: experimental, placebo, and control. The scales used for this study were Assertiveness Scale for Adolescents, Coopersmith Self-esteem, Social Anxiety Scale, and SCL-90. The design was a pre-post test with control groups. Both experimental and control groups were pre- and post-tested. but only the experimental group received the treatment. The results showed that teaching assertiveness increased self-esteem, mental health and assertion, and decreased social anxiety.

This paper investigates the relationship between self-esteem, social anxiety, perfectionism and assertiveness in students of Shahied Chamran University in Ahvaz, Iran. In this study 320 students (160 females and 160 males) were randomly selected. Subjects completed the Assertiveness Self-Report Inventory (ASRI), Eysenck Self-Esteem Test, Social Anxiety Scale (SAS), and Ahvaz Perfectionism Scale (APS). The results showed that (for all the male and female students) the correlation between self-esteem and assertiveness was positive; while the correlation of social anxiety with assertiveness was negative and (for all the male and female students) perfectionism and assertiveness had a negative correlation. In female subjects, a significant correlation coefficient was not observed between perfectionism and assertiveness. The results of regression analysis indicated that the addition of social anxiety to self-esteem significantly increases the relationship with assertiveness (for all students). In male subjects, social anxiety was a good predictor of assertiveness, but in females self-esteem was the best predictor.
