Background: One of the family factors that psychologists attach importance to in the formation of adolescent behavioral problems is the conflict between parents and adolescents, which can provide a platform for adolescents' social anxiety. On the other hand, studies have shown that people with social anxiety have problems in regulating their emotions. Therefore, considering the importance of adolescence and the destructive role of social anxiety, it seems necessary to investigate the relationship between these two variables with the mediation of emotional regulation.
Aims: The present study was conducted with the aim of modeling the structural equations of the relationship between parent/child conflict and social anxiety in adolescents with the mediation of emotional regulation.
Methods: The correlational descriptive research was of the structural equation modeling type. The statistical population included all teenagers, boys and girls, in the age range of 14 to 17 years living in Tehran. Sampling was done by random cluster method. Among each of the North, South, Center, West and East regions of Tehran, education and training areas 1, 19, 13, 5, 8 were randomly selected. One high school from each region and 3 classes from each high school were randomly selected. The statistical sample was 449 people. To collect data, adolescent social anxiety scales (Paklek, 2004), parent-child conflict (Mark et al., 1983) and emotion regulation questionnaire (Gross and John, 2003) were used. Data analysis was done using structural equation test and were analyzed using AMOS 26.0 software.
Results: The findings showed that the structural model of the relationship between parent/child conflict and social anxiety in adolescents with the mediation of emotional regulation fits the data. Also, the path coefficient between the emotion regulation suppression strategy (β= 0.441, P= 0.001) with positive social anxiety and the path coefficient between the emotion regulation reappraisal strategy (β= 0.395, P= 0.001) with anxiety It was socially negative and significant. The total path coefficient between parent/child conflict and social anxiety (p= 0.001, β= 0.449) was also positive and significant. Based on the obtained results, reducing the parent/child conflict both directly and indirectly with the effect of emotion regulation have an effective role in reducing the social anxiety of adolescents.
Conclusion: The results showed that the child's conflict with the parents, with its negative emotional effects, is able to provide the basis for anxiety and mental disturbances. Therefore, in order to reduce the social anxiety of teenagers, it is suggested that schools take steps to improve their communication skills by holding training courses for parents and students.
