Psychological research in Iran had a unidimensional development and the research programs was influenced by naïve realism and blind positivism. More Recent epistemological tradition like social constructionism and discursive methodologies were ignored in psychological theories and research. The aims of this study were (1) Describing methodological issues in discursive research methods; (2) applying discursive research methods in health psychology. Discourse as a concept is derived from an ontological criticism toward the definition of science based on the objective reality and empiricism. Relying only on the objectivism and empiricism for studying human phenomena is inconsistent with some of the human mind features like intentionality and desire for cognitive consistency. Discursive approaches in health psychology is appropriate for investigating phenomena like noncompliance, representation of illness in patients’ mind and factors affecting in holding responsibility in health-related behaviors. Furthermore, discursive methods could reveal how social discourse and social power could determine the definition of health and responsivity for health related issues. Some of the main analytic methods in discursive methodologies are conversation analysis, identification the discursive performance, finding discursive strategies, and discovering interpretative repertoires. Discursive methodologies could investigate health from the ways of applying language in social context and produce knowledge related to ways people position themselves toward health discourses. So, applying discursive methodologies in health psychology could help health psychologists to find better ways to promote health care and produce novel insights about how clients construct health and illness.

Coronavirus, like any other disease, initially manifested itself as a biological phenomenon that threatens people's health, but even non-communicable diseases act as a "multidimensional social reality."In this article; First, a review of theoretical literature seeks to criticised "radical constructivism" by  a perspective that emphasizes "complex", "stratified " and "social" social reality.
Then, these two approaches will be used to study the coronavirus epidemic (as a problem). Corona acts here as a complex reality in biological, human (Agency) and social dimensions. This is a complex and multifaceted reality, each level of reality has unrecognized, and interconnected causal powers. To this end, we encounter a kind of "complexity of causality " in examining the Corona problem.Each level of reality has unrecognized, related, and interdependent causal powers.  Serious shortcomings, in other words, the diminution of social reality to human understanding (epistemological fallacy) will result in nothing but our punishment by reality. The health system has prevailed, and the results have been nothing but "continuous recovery of reality" and the choice of the path of "trial and error" or sometimes confusion in policy-making for society

The aim of this study was to investigate the mediating role of metacognition in the relationship between attachment styles and online gambling addiction in adolescents. The method of the present study was descriptive-correlational. The statistical population was all male adolescents in district one of Tehran, from which a sample of 234 people were selected by convenience sampling method. The research instruments were Wells Metacognitive Beliefs Questionnaire,Wang and Chang online game addiction,and Collins and Reed attachment style. Relationships between variables were performed by Pearson correlation test and structural equation modeling test using partial least squares method. Pearson correlation test showed that there is a negative and significant relationship between secure attachment with metacognition and online gambling addiction and between positive avoidance and anxiety with metacognition and online gambling addiction and a positive and significant relationship between metacognition and online gambling addiction (0.05>P)existed. It also clarified the indirect relationship between the dimensions of attachment and online gambling addiction through metacognition and showed that metacognition plays a mediating role in the relationship between the dimensions of attachment and online gambling addiction. It is suggested that psychologists emphasize the role of attachment and metacognition dimensions for preventive interventions and awareness-raising for families and schools.
