“…Jackson calculated the reliability of the questionnaire using Cronbach's alpha method for each of system as follows: 1.89 for behavioral activation system, 1.71, and 1.74 for the fight-flight-freeze. Hasani et al examined the validity of the Iranian version of this scale in terms internal consistency, correlation of items, test-retest, factor analysis, correlation between subscales, and criterion validity, with Cronbach's alpha ranging from 1.72 to 1.88, retest coefficients from 1.14 to 1.78 and the correlations of the total items between 1.18 to 1.28 (Fayazi, 2016).…”

The purpose of the current study was to examine the efficacy of emotional regulation training on Internet addiction disorder with the moderating role of brain-behavioral systems. The current research is a quasi-experimental study that employs with a pre-test/post-test design with a control group and a follow-up period for its purposes. The statistical population of the research were Internet using students of the second educational level in Islamshahr in the second half of 2021(15-20 years old girls). The research participants were selected using a convenience purposive sampling and were then randomly assigned to three experimental groups (45 people) and three control groups (45 people). Revised Reinforcement Sensitivity Theory Questionnaire (r-RST), Internet Addiction Inventory and Emotional Regulation Training scale were used to collect the data, which were then analyzed using SPSS v. 22. Findings: The findings indicated that emotional regulation training can significantly alleviate Internet addiction in three groups of behavioral activation system, brain inhibition and fight-flight-or-freeze response systems. Conclusion: The results of the study support the notion of using emotional regulation training to reduce internet addiction disorder in students.
