Introduction and objectives

The main purpose of this research was to investigate the simple and multiple relations between just (general and global) and unjust word beliefs with psychological state.

Method

To this goal, 319 participants selected with the use of multi-stage random sampling method from the total population. Questionnaires which used in this research were: General Just Word Belief Scale, Unjust Word Belief Scale and SCL-90-R Scale were used. Pearson's correlation coefficient and stepwise regression analysis method.

Results

Were used the results showed that there is negative significant relation between general just world belief with obsessive -compulsive (OC), interpersonal sensitivity (INT), depression (DEP), hostility (HOS) and paranoia (PAR), (p < 0.05, p < 0.01). Also results showed that there is negative significant relation between global just word belief with obsessive compulsive and depression, (p < 0.05). Results also showed a positive significant relation between unjust word beliefs with paranoia (p < 0.05).

Conclusions

The results of the stepwise regression analysis, showed that only depression has a significant power for prediction of general just word beliefs and score of additional items in SCL-90-R have significant power for prediction of global just word belief. Results of regression analysis showed that interpersonal sensitivity (INE) and paranoia have significant power for prediction of unjust word belief. Finally the results showed that only paranoia has a significant power for prediction of unjust word belief. The implications of the results have been discussed.
