Methodology: The subjects were 293 of the girl students of fifth and sixth grades Which were selected by multi-stage cluttering sampling method. The tools are three questionnaires: theory of mind, empathy, and Child Behavior Checklist. For analyzing the data, multiple regression method, multi variable variance analysis test and Fisher’s Z-test formula has been used.
Findings: The results show that the theory of mind is capable to predict behavioral-emotional problems in students from typical families, but not those of the students from divorce families. No meaningful relationship has been observed between the empathy capability and behavioral-emotional problems from none of the two groups of students. Results also show students from divorce families demonstrate more behavioral-emotional problems. Comparing the correlation between the theory of mind and empathy with behavioral-emotional problems in students shows that the correlations gained from the two groups show no meaningful statistical difference.Purpose: The present study was to investigating the role of theory of mind and empathy in predicting behavioral-emotional problems in students from typical and divorce families that done the cause-comparison and correlation method.

Findings: Results showed that there is significant difference between object relational dimensions (Alienation, Attachment, Ego Centricity, and Social Incompetence) and Father Negative Engagement, Father Good Provider Role, Father Positive Emotional Responsiveness, and Moral Father Role in two groups.

Methodology: 331 female Teachers were selected using single-stage cluster random sampling and were asked to answer the Identity Style Questionnaires (ISI-6G), Emotion Regulation Skill Questionnaires (ERSQ) and Marital Instability Index (MII). Data were analyzed using, Pearson product moment correlation, and Stepwise regression methods.
Findings: results showed that there is significant negative correlation between informative identity style (r= -0.40), normative identity style (r= -0.30), and emotion regulation skill (r= -0.35) with marital instability. Also the positive relationship between diffused-avoidant identity Style (r= 0.33) and marital instability was statistically significant. Results also showed that information identity, diffused-avoidant identity, normative identity, and emotion regulation skills significantly predict marital instability. According to the findings, Identity styles played the greatest role in predicting the criterion variable. Therefore, we can conclude that, if married female teachers have a comprehensive self-understanding with high abilities on their emotion regulation, their marriage would be more stable.Purpose: Current study aimed to predict Marital instability based on Identity styles and Emotion regulation skills among married women in Qouchan.
