Abstract

Nowadays, the Internet and social networks are used extensively and sometimes pathologically. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the role of borderline personality traits and rejection sensitive in predicting membership in social networks. In this descriptive and correlational study, among 200 high school teachers (111 females and 89 male) of Khusfe city, South Khorasan province, 182 teachers were selected by census method and then they were asked to complete borderline personality scale, rejection sensitive questionnaire and a questionnaire on membership in social networks. To test the hypotheses, Pearson correlation coefficient and multivariate regression analysis were used. Results showed that rejection sensitivity and borderline personality traits had a role in predicting membership in social networks and these two variables accounted for 27% variance of membership in social networks. It seems that having borderline personality traits and rejection sensitivity in actual interpersonal relations are effective factors in a tendency to use social networks more and compulsorily.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the structural model of explaining non-suicidal self-injurious behaviors based on perfectionism and traumatic experiences with the mediating role of psychological hardiness. The design of the present study was applied and correlational by structural equation modeling. Among all undergraduate students in Tehran universities, 529 (411 girls and 118 boys) were selected by cluster random sampling. They all completed questionnaires on self-injury, moral perfectionism, traumatic experiences, and psychological hardiness. Pearson correlation methods and structural equation modeling using SPSSV19 and AMOSV18 softwares were used to analyze the data. The results showed that both the variables of moral perfectionism and traumatic experiences, had direct and significant effects on psychological toughness and self-injurious behaviors. Psychological hardiness also had a direct and significant effect on self-injurious behaviors. In addition, the results showed that the two variables of moral perfectionism and traumatic experiences have an indirect and significant effect on self-injurious behaviors (P<0.01). Finally, the results of this study showed that moral perfectionism and harmful experiences have a significant effect on self-injurious behaviors due to stubbornness, and therefore the knowledge of psychologists, counselors and other experts about this model, to improve self-injurious behaviors, can be helpful.
