Iranian Journal of Psychiatry and Clinical Psychology IJPCP 1735-4315 2228-7515 10.32598/ijpcp 1995 2 1 Haratoon Davidian Medicine in Iran in the early Islamic period (comparable to the 6th -10th centuries A.D.) has been reviewed briefly. The distinguished physicians of that period, like Razes (830-892 , A. D.). Avicenna (865-925, A.D>), Georgeani (1041-1136, A.D.) and others made distinction between medicine and philosophy employing latter in the service of medicine, They exercised the principles of "Logic" in the nalysis of medical findings (the observable facts) and in their experimentations. This, resulted in to postulate the advantageous workable view of what is known today as "psycho-somatic approach to the medicine": In this respect, Georgeani states that "the medical man, first, must know the substantial temperament of his patient and its mode of progression throughout the life he should ascertain the types of the predominan mood, habits and temper, and recognize whether he is happy, joyful, sad etc". Having adopted this point of view, it ensues then, that they were looking at mentally ill person not as somebody who is posessed by evil spirits (as it was the case in the middle ages in Europe) but they believed that mental illnesses are a product of the malfunctioning brain, and consequently in need of medical treatment. It is of interest to note that there can also be found evidences in the old Persian literaure indicating the presence of a similar opinion among laymen as well. 1995 9 01 7 15 http://ijpcp.iums.ac.ir/article-1-1668-en.pdf

Iranian Journal of Psychiatry and Clinical Psychology IJPCP 1735-4315 2228-7515 10.32598/ijpcp 1995 2 1 Jafar Bolhari Ahmad Mohit In Iran like many developing countries, rural population is dispersed. This is a major reason of unavailablity of limited urban mental health facilities for the majority of rural dowellers. One way of overcoming this problem is "Integration of Mental health into Health Care System". Recently many efforts have been done in this direction. In the present research, by selecting of one test group and one control group, the change in attitude of 34 Behvarzes and 237 rural dwellers was tested and again retested following the integration of Mental Health into the PHC. The hypothesis was that training of Behvarzes and programme implementation would improve attitude in both groups. The instruments of this study included two attitude questionnaire, one for Behvarzes and one for ordinar y rural dwellers. The questionnaire was tested for face and content validity. Data were analizes by using independent t-test and comparison of averages. The results showed improvement in the attitudes of general population and Behvarzes. The Behvarzes were also able to diagnose 154 cases with mental health problem from the population and refered them to the GPs. 1995 9 01 16 24 http://ijpcp.iums.ac.ir/article-1-1670-en.pdf

Gray's long standing research leads him to a neuropsychological framework for the classification of psychiatric disorder. Gray believes psychiatry is a branch of medicine and is concerned with behaviour disorder and psychological processes that underlie this behaviour. Psychiatric disorders such as anxiety, panic, depression, schizophernia and obsessive-compulsive disorders are discussed in the light of disturbance of particular behavioural system or interaction between these systems as well as the contribution of each system in producing symptoms and signs. The three behavioural systems which regulate our behaviour are: behavioural inhibition system (BLS), Light-fight system (FFS) and behavioural approach system (BAS). All these systems have been described on behavioural / anatomo – functional and cognitive level. Programming and control of motor behaviour is regulated by learned comparison, anticipation of current state of perceptual world, possible events, preduction of next step, and the role of each system in the smooth running of plan of behaviour. Amygdala as a centre for coordination and its role in psychiatric disturbance is dis cussed. 1995 9 01 25 40 http://ijpcp.iums.ac.ir/article-1-1671-en.pdf

A follow-up unit was established at this center, providing services for hospitalized and discharged chronic mental patients. The services include regular visits, enhancement of drug compliance, controlling drug side-effects, family, social and occupational counselling and intervention, as well as refering to Imam Khomeini Committee, and providing financial support 121 patients (20 female and 101 male). Mostly schizophernic, were included in this programme. Results showed that the number of rehospitalization decreses, and dryg compliance, social and occupational functions improved. It appears that such tertiary prevention units could promote mental health. 1995 9 01 41 47 http://ijpcp.iums.ac.ir/article-1-1672-en.pdf

On the other hand, many psychiatric disorders such as dissociative disorder, sleep disorder, impulse control disorder and cyclic disorders have clinical features like epilepsy. Therefore, differential dagnosis is very important in dealing with epilepsy. Epilepsy has many psychological symptoms and signs. These features could be transient and unstable like those after and before epileptic attack, or it could be permanent and stable behavioural pattern such as personality changes seen in temporal lobe epilepsy. 1995 9 01 60 63 http://ijpcp.iums.ac.ir/article-1-1676-en.pdf

The onset and course of syndrome, types of drugs prescribed, and the variety of symptoms, were studied. Results showed that early diagnosis of the syndrome, cessation of neuroleptic drugs, and classical treatment were efective in saving the lives of 3 out of 5 patients. There was also a correlation between dosage of the drugs and the incidence of the syndrome. 1995 9 01 64 71 http://ijpcp.iums.ac.ir/article-1-1678-en.pdf

In the last two decades, cooperation between psychology and medicine has increased. This cooperation has encouraged research activities and provided further support for the bio-psycho-social approach to physical illness. This approach concerns the health and its impairments. There are many publications in this field, along with special associations and new specialised journals like "Health Psychology" and "Psychology and Health". Furthermore, there is an increment in the number of seminars as well as psychological programmes for courses in health education and primary prevention. 1995 9 01 72 75 http://ijpcp.iums.ac.ir/article-1-1679-en.pdf

Iranian Journal of Psychiatry and Clinical Psychology IJPCP 1735-4315 2228-7515 10.32598/ijpcp 1995 2 1 Mokhtar Malekpour Prevention of disabilities and handicaps, including mental relardation and low intelligence, is one of the important aims of health programmes. Therefore, understanding the causes of such disabilities could reduce their incidence. A cause of low IQ and mental retardation is prematurity and this could be the result of low age of mothers at the time of pregnancy. This study investigates the relationship between the age of mothers and their children's IQ. Subjects were 110 children between 5 to 15 years and their mothers who were between 13 to 20 years. Pearson corellation coefficient showed a significant relationship between age of mothers and IQ of their children. 1995 9 01 76 81 http://ijpcp.iums.ac.ir/article-1-1680-en.pdf
