Abstract
Migraine headache is one of the most common forms of pain and due to its frequency, it is one of the most important types of headache.The purpose of this study was to identify the precedents and consequences of migraine headaches in a non-clinical population. We selected a set of 310 students as our samples by the use of multi-stage stratified random sampling. We collected Data using questionnaires Migraine Screen, Depression Anxiety Stress, State-Trait Anger Expression, Obsessive Beliefs Questionnaire, Symptom Checklist-90-Revised, Fatigue severity scale and Quality of life scale. The results showed that all the coefficients of direct paths between the research variables were statistically significant. On the other hand, based on the results of the study, the indirect relation of anger, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and anxiety with the quality of life, depression, and fatigue were significant through migraine mediation. In addition, the relationship between obsessive beliefs, and migraine mediated by obsessive-compulsive disorder. The findings of this study provide a useful framework for identifying the factors affecting the onset of migraine headaches and its consequences.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy of cognitive-behavioral therapy and mindfulness-based cognitive therapy in perfectionism of patients with migraine headache. Using pretest-posttest based quasi-experimental design, with a three-group design. Using quasi-experimental design based on pre-test and post-test, three groups of patients with migraine headaches referring to Mashhad neurology clinic were selected based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria and were randomly divided into three groups (two experimental groups and one control group, each group 15). The perfectionism questionnaire was used to collect information. Data were analyzed by multivariate analysis of covariance (MONCOVA) and Bonferroni post hoc test. Based on the results, both cognitive-behavioral therapy and mindfulness-based cognitive therapy significantly reduced perfectionism in patients with migraine headache. The results also showed that mindfulness based cognitive therapy has a greater effect on reducing perfectionism in patients with migraine headache. In general, interventions based on mindfulness and cognitive behavioral principles can play a fundamental role in ensuring the psychological health of patients with migraine headache.
