  The purpose of the present study was to investigate the high school students’ mental health in the city of Qom. This study was a survey research. Statistical population included all the female high school students in Qom city (15872). Statistical sample was 340 students who were selected based on a random classification and multi phase cluster sampling method from districts 1, 2 and 3 of the office of education in the city of Qom. The measurement instrument was SCL-90-R (Deragotis, 1994) which was performed on a group method in different schools. Data analysis revealed that the means were higher than the test margin (0.7) for all the factors. Regarding the prevalence of psychological problems, depression factor showed a prevalence of 67 percent which was the highest and phobia factor with 21.6 percent which was the lowest. Comparing the mean psychological problems of female high school students by ANOVA showed that there was a significant difference only on depression factor and there were no significant differences in other factors. The findings in this study indicated that mental health among female high school students was not favorable. Therefore it seems necessary to provide female high school students with psychological mental health and mental hygiene. Manuscript profile

   The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of subjective well-being group training on mental health of students of Islamic Azad University Isfahan (Khorasgan) Branch. The method of this study was quasi-experimental with pre- and post-test, including one experimental and one control group. The statistical population of this study was students of the University in Fall of 2012 (1391s.c.), from among them in which 40 subjects were selected by available sampling method and assigned randomly to the two groups-control and experimental- each one including 20 subjects. The Symptom Check List (SCL-90-R Derogatis et al., 1973) was used to gather the data. The experimental group received subjective well-being training in 10 sessions (in 5 weeks, 2 sessions per week, each session 90 minutes). The results of multivariable analysis of covariance showed that, except depression, there were significant differences in all other sub-scales of SCL-90-R (Somatization, Obsessive-Compulsive, Interpersonal Sensitivity, Anxiety, Hostility, Phobic Anxiety, Paranoid Ideation, Psychoticism, Global Severity Index ,Positive Symptom Distress Index, Positive Symptom Total ) between the two groups. means of the training group were higher than those of the control group (P < 0.01). These results suggest that training of subjective well-being can be beneficial for students' mental health.   Manuscript profile
