Abstract


Recovery is a process by which one promotes health, lives meaningfully, and participates in a community outside the mental health system. Focusing on biotherapeutics and drug therapy has neglected to consider the non-biological factors affecting recovery and planning for its correction. The present study aimed to develop a comprehensive and integrated model for facilitators of recovery in bipolar disorder. This research was a qualitative and grounded theory study. Participants were 31 individuals with ameliorated bipolar disorder who were selected using purposive sampling and snowball sampling. Data were collected using triangulation method (semi-structured interview, narrative interview and interview with family member). Systematic method of Strauss and Corbin was used for data analysis. The model extracted includes causal conditions, mediators, strategies, and recovery outcomes in people with bipolar disorder. The categories extracted include individual (low sensitivity to stigma disorder, positive attitude, active lifestyle, balanced spirituality, intimacy perception, internal control locus), family (positive family atmosphere and family awareness and participation), and social (social support, Positive image of community, perception of justice, low social stigma, employment and social networks). This finding could be a step towards multidimensional treatment of bipolar disorder and focus on its non-biological aspects.

Abstract

Self-differentiation is a contextual phenomenon and dependent on social conditions that is formed and experienced in a dynamic process under the influence of various conditions. Considering this issue, the question was raised, what are the basic components in the formation of self-differentiation? For this purpose, the qualitative approach, the systematic design of grounded theory at the level of conceptual ordering has been used. Through theoretical sampling and according to theoretical saturation, 17 people were interviewed. Data analysis was done using the first stage of theoratical coding method. After data analysis, 112 primary codes were identified, then 28 subcategories and 3 categories were formed. The findings show that self-differentiation emerges and flows in the form of independent thoughts, behaviors and attitudes along with identity seeking and social dignity. As a result, in the formation of self-differentiation, the basic components are mainly experienced as intellectual independence, but identity seeking and social dignity are another part of these components that are experienced. The findings of this study, guidance for future researches and provided a deeper understanding of this psychological characteristic in the cultural context, which can also have practical consequences in family therapy with regard to multicultural issues.

Abstract

The aim of this study is to identify and model the academic procrastination pattern based on the grounded theory. This research was conducted with a qualitative approach and a sequential-exploratory design. In the qualitative phase, the grounded theory method was used for data analysis. The participants of the study were undergraduate students at the University of Tehran who, based on their self-reports, were experiencing academic procrastination. Participants were selected using theoretical sampling. Data were collected using semi-structured interviews.The results of the data analysis indicated that psychological factors, perfectionism, experiential avoidance, internet addiction, and cultural-social factors were identified as the main causes of academic procrastination according to the interviewees. Additionally, the most important core and peripheral factors affecting academic procrastination included delay, indifference, laziness, impulsivity, and lack of concentration. Regarding coping strategies, self-actualization and time management were identified as the main strategies for reducing academic procrastination by the interviewees. Contextual factors influencing the application of these strategies included emotion management and behavior modification. Furthermore, strategic and macro-level interventions were identified as significant intervening factors in the process of coping with academic procrastination. Ultimately, the outcomes of these coping strategies included increased academic self-efficacy and improved students’ mental health
