Also, early maladaptive schemas and couple’s communication patterns significantly could predict 52.9 percent of variance of family function (P<0.05). Conclusion: Based on the results of the present study, to promote the family function can be decrease the rate of their early maladaptive schemas and improve the rate of couple’s communication patterns, who for this purpose the use of psychological interventions include schema therapy can be useful.

Purpose: The initiation of anti-bullying movements in school’s dates back to nearly three decades ago in some countries. Despite the importance of such a movement and its grave implications for education systems, no particular program or action has been organized in our country.
