    Abstract: 
    The present paper seeks to bring out the relationship of Islamic optimism, with depression and ways of coping with the stress among University students. 224 students who participated in Welayat Project in Mashhad in 1391 (2012-2013) (100 males and 124 females) were chosen through simple random sampling. The research tools included Islamic optimism questionnaire, Beck's depression questionnaire and Lazarus's coping styles. Pearson correlation and simple-multiple regressions were used to analyze the data. The research findings show that there is a significant relationship between Islamic optimism, depression and coping styles and that Islamic optimism and coping styles are proper indexes to predict depression. Furthermore, those who have a feeling of Islamic optimism fall into depression less than others and use effective coping styles in traumatic experiences.

    Title :بررسی رابطه‌ی خوش‌بینی اسلامی، افسردگی و سبک‌های مقابله با استرس در دانشجویان
    Abstract: 
    هدف این پژوهش، تعیین رابطه میان خوش بینی اسلامی، افسردگی و سبک های مقابله با استرس در دانشجویان بود. از میان جامعه‌ی آماری دانشجویان شرکت کننده در طرح ولایت مشهد مقدس سال 1391، 224 نفر (100 پسر، 124 دختر) به عنوان نمونه‌ی آماری به روش تصادفی ساده انتخاب شدند. ابزار پژوهش شامل پرسش نامه‌ی خوش بینی اسلامی، افسردگی بک و سبک های مقابله لازاروس بود. برای تحلیل داده ها از روش آماری همبستگی پیرسون و رگرسیون ساده و چندگانه استفاده شد. یافته ها نشان داد که خوش بینی اسلامی، افسردگی و سبک های مقابله دارای رابطه‌ی معنادار بوده و خوش بینی اسلامی و سبک های مقابله شاخص خوبی برای پیش بینی افسردگی هستند. همچنین افراد دارای خوش بینی اسلامی، کمتر دچار افسردگی می شوند و در برخورد با رویدادهای تنش زا از مقابله های مؤثر استفاده می کنند.
