Abstract
The aim of the current study was to investigate negative processing of implicit information relating to self by self-esteem implicit association test in depressed and non-depressed students.17 depressed students and 17 non-depressed students were selected according to a convenience sampling method. Beck depression inventory (BDI-II) and clinical interviews were employed to diagnose depressed individuals. The Beck anxiety inventory (BAI) was conducted to control of participant's anxiety. The data were analyzed using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA).Results revealed that depressed individuals had higher scores in Beck depression inventory (BDI-II) than non-depressed (p = 0.001). It is also a significant difference between depressed and non-depressed individuals (p = 0.003).According to the results of this study, it can be concluded that depressed studentshave lower implicit self-esteem scores than non-depressed, in self-esteem implicit association test (IAT).

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of emotional working memory training on improving cognitive control of
participants with high trait anxiety symptoms. This study was based on a quasi-experimental design pretest& posttest with active control group. 28 students from Ferdowsi University of Mashhad with high scores on trait anxiety, State-Trait Anxiety Inventory were voluntarily selected, according to available sampling. 14 people in both experimental and active control groups were matched and randomly assigned into two groups. To measure cognitive control color-word Stroop test was used. Persian Emotional Working Memory Training was used with the experimental group and Shape Matched Training Task was used with the active control group To analyze the results multivariate analysis of covariance was conducted The results showed a significant difference in cognitive control components (congruent reaction time, incongruent reaction time and interference score) between the two groups.

Abstract
The purpose of this study is presentation the structural model of executive functions and extramarital relationship with mediating role of self-control. The 210 samples were selected by convenience sampling. In experimental situation, for assessing executive function participants did computerized exams include: Stroop, Wisconsin, Go No Go and N- Back and completed self-control questionnaire of Tangney and attitudes toward infidelity scale of Whatley. Data was analyzed through regression, structural equation modeling. Model has a suitable fit. Results shows that executive functions includes inhibition(-0/13), task switching(-0/13) ,working memory(-0/16) and self-control(-0/10)had direct effect on extra marital relationship. Executive functions includes inhibition(-0/23), task switching(-0/11) ,working memory(-0/27) had indirect effect on extra marital relationship with mediation of self-control.
