The family and its function as a social institution has an important role in children’s psychological development. The Aim of this study is to investigate the relations of family functioning and the level of psychological basic needs of adolescents with their mental health. Research design is descriptive -correlational and the sample has been recruited from four military areas in Tehran city via simple random sam-pling method.A total number of 200 families with their youth (14 to 22 year old) com-pleted three questionnaires: Family Assessment Device (FAD), Psycholo-gical Needs Questionnaire (PNQ), and General Health Questionnaire (GHQ). The resultsindicate that there are sign-ificant correlations between family functionig subscales and mental hea-lth of their adolescences. Other fin-ding show that low family functioning has negative correlation with psych-ological basic needs (including three subscales: competence, autonomy, and relatedness)of adolescents. We discuss the results in the light of previous findings and provide suggestions to improve family function.
