“…Salary Feyzabad 60 reported that SFGC is effective in reducing mental pressure in high school student girls. The study by Saffarpoor et al 61 also showed that SFGC has had a significant effect in increasing the social compatibility of orphaned teens. The studies by Alimohammadi 62 and by Sarvi et al 63 indicate the efficiency of SFGC in promoting motivation, progress, and educational performance of the target group.…”

Objective The present study was conducted with the objective of investigating the effectiveness of solution-focused group counseling (SFGC) on promoting the mental health of midwifery students. Methods The present study is an intervention-based study with a pretest, a post-test, and a control group. The statistical population included all of the midwifery students studying in the midwifery department of the Bam University of Medical Sciences, Kerman, Iran, who filled out the General Health Questionnaire (GHQ) in the screening phase. In the second phase, 40 individuals, having a low level of mental health based on the cutoff score of 23, were selected and randomly divided into 2 groups (intervention and control), each group with 20 participants. The intervention group participated in 5 sessions of 75 minutes for SFGC. Then, the post-test was held in both groups and the data analysis was conducted using the Mann-Whitney and the Kruskal-Wallis test with IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, Version 21.0 (IBM Corp, Armonk, NY, USA). The significance level was considered as p < 0.05. Results The findings showed that the mean of the post-test mental health scores of the intervention group (14.5 ± 50.35) and of the control group (23.6 ± 35.83) showed a statistically significant difference (p < 0.0001). Moreover, the comparison between the mean scores of the mental health subscales (physical symptoms, stress, social performance, and depression) showed a statistically significant difference in these groups, and SFGC improved physical symptoms, stress, social performance, and depression in the members of the intervention group. Conclusion Solution-focused group counseling may improve all levels of mental health. This type of counseling is recommended to be used to solve the psychological problems and to improve the mental health of students, as well as of the staff of the health system.

After a brief reflection on the development of psychotherapy up to the present day, I summarise the current evidence base for Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) and Solution-Focused approaches to organisational process (130 published outcome studies). Becoming familiar with the literature has changed over the last 50 years. It is no longer a matter of chatting to colleagues in your own field. New projects are published in many countries and languages. The database is now extensive and we need to develop strategies and systems which will enable us to keep pace with the expanding area of knowledge. How may this be done?

“…Social support is thought to be important in the adjustment process because it allows students to mobilize interpersonal resources to help them cope with the stress of adjusting to college (Compas et al, 1986). Previous research has suggested that students in their first year have more difficulty adjusting academically (Saffarpoor et al, 2011) however, if students can adapt themselves academically well, then all of their abilities will adjust to the college environment (Estiane, 2015). Based on of these findings, the most important thing for students in their first year of study is college adjustment.…”

For many students, starting college marks a significant transition. Students must face many transitions as they enter college, including changes in their life, academic environment, social environment, and adjusting to their independence and responsibilities. Although many students successfully make the transition to college, The importance of transition and adjustment for students in their first year is fascinating to investigate, and this paper investigates college adjustment predictors in assisting students and first-year student in their transition to university. A systematic literature review will turn up several articles on transitions and adjustment of first-year students. The goal of this review is to determine the predictors of college adjustment. According to the findings of a literature review, there are four domain factors that are predictors of college adjustment: personality trait factors, external factors, coping style factors, and demographic factors. The limitation of this review may be added during the selection of the articles, the setting of the articles is not chosen specifically implying the countries are mixed between continents randomly, also the articles chosen are only limited from English language only, implying that the articles written in developing countries are not included and reviewed.
