The aim of current study was to investigate the meditator role of social problems solving in the relationship between parental perception and psychological well-being through a correlational research. Statistical society included all students of the first secondary high school students in shiraz in 2022. For this purpose, 196 (100 male and 96female) students were selected using random cluster sampling, and social problem-solving ability competency was used to collect data. Inferential statistics test (Pearson correlation test and Path analysis) have been used to check the research hypothesis. The results of Baron Kenny's path analysis showed that social problems solving has a significant mediating role in the relationship between parental perception and psychological well-being. Mother cordiality, father’s support for autonomy and social problems solving all have an impact on psychological well-being, but the components of parental involvement, support for mother's autonomy and father cordiality do not have a significant effect on psychological well-being.

This study aimed to develop a sport performance prediction model based on competitive cognitive anxiety, mindfulness, and self-efficacy in university athletes and examine its predictive validity. The study collected data from 100 university athletes who completed self-report measures of competitive cognitive anxiety, mindfulness, self-efficacy, and sport performance. The results showed that competitive cognitive anxiety, mindfulness, and self-efficacy significantly predicted sport performance in university athletes, with higher levels of competitive cognitive anxiety associated with lower sport performance, and higher levels of mindfulness and self-efficacy associated with higher sport performance. The developed sport performance prediction model explained 66.5% of the variance in sport performance. These findings suggest that competitive cognitive anxiety, mindfulness, and self-efficacy are important psychological factors that affect sport performance in university athletes, and that a sport performance prediction model could be useful in identifying athletes who may benefit from interventions to enhance these factors. Future research should consider incorporating other important factors that contribute to sport performance to further enhance the predictive validity of the model.

The purpose of the present study was to investigate religious coping strategies and practicing religious beliefs as predictors of aggression in elementary school boys in Bandar Abbas (Iran). The research method was descriptive and correlational. The statistical population of the present study was all male students who were studying in 13 elementary schools in Bandar Abbas in 2022. Using the accessible sampling method, 218 students were selected. Data was collected by Practicing religious beliefs questionnaire, Religious coping strategies scale and Aggression inventory for children. Data was analyzed through Pearson's correlation coefficient and regression analysis. The results showed that there is a positive and significant relationship between negative religious coping strategies and aggression in primary school boys. In other words, the more primary school boys use negative religious coping strategies, they have exhibited the more symptoms of aggression in physical, relational and verbal components. Otherwise, there was a negative association between positive religious coping strategies and physical, verbal and relational aggression components The findings can be accommodating in designing and implementing interventions to reduce aggression in primary school students.
