Data were collected by Coronavirus Anxiety Scale (Alipour et al., 2018) and the Coping Self-Efficacy Scale (Chesni et al., 2005) which were prepared as virtual web-based questionnaires. Also the data obtained from these questionnaires were analyzed by one-way analysis of variance in SPSS-25 software. The results of variance analysis showed that there was a significant difference between mild and severe coronary anxiety group in the mean of coping self-efficacy and problem-oriented coping (p<0/01).Mean self-efficacy and problem-oriented coping did not differ significantly from other coronary anxiety severity confrontations, Also, the mean stop unpleasant emotions and thoughts and get support from friends and family were not differ significantly in all coronary severity confrontations (p<0/05).

        Obsessive illness is one of the severe problems and disorders, the cause of which is challenging to recognize and treat. Therefore, the research was conducted with the aim of predicting the relapse of obsessive-compulsive disorder based on the physical-psychological components of corona anxiety and emotional self-regulation in patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder. The research method was descriptive-correlation. Among the women suffering from obsessive compulsive disorder who referred to Parham Clinic in Kermanshah in 2023, 200 people were selected using the available sampling method and obsessive-compulsive questionnaire (Hodgson and Rachman, 1977), corona anxiety (Alipour et al., 2018) and emotional self-regulation (Gross and John, 2003) they completed. Data analysis was done with the methods of descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation coefficient and multivariate regression with the help of SPSS version 26 statistical software. The results showed that corona anxiety (r=0.29 and p=0.014) and its components have a positive and significant correlation with the recurrence of obsessive-compulsive symptoms (p<0.05). Also, emotional self-regulation (r=-0.48 and p=0.018) and its dimensions were able to negatively and significantly predict the recurrence of obsessive-compulsive symptoms. Regression analysis using the simultaneous method also showed that predictor variables together predicted 31% of the variance of recurrence of obsessive-compulsive symptoms. Considering these results, it seems that by improving emotional self-regulation and controlling the anxiety of Corona, it is possible to reduce the recurrence of obsessive-compulsive symptoms in these patients.
