Introduction: Parents have a very important role in the formation of social skills in their children, hence The purpose of this study is to explain the social skills of children based on the Parent's Social Capital and Cultural Capitalof parents concerning the mediating role of coping styles with children's negative emotions (CCNE).Methods: The research method is a descriptive correlation. The statistical population was the parents of primary school students in Yazd in the academic year 2020-2021. The sample size was 500 people who were selected with the multi-stage cluster sampling method and 419 people completed the questionnaires. Research measurement included the Social skills rating system, CCNES, Family Social Capital, and cultural Capital Scale. SmartPls3 software was also used to analyze the data by structural equation modeling.Result: The results showed that social capital, both directly (β= 0.26, P=0.002) and in a process due to supportive (β= 0.044, P=0.009) and non-supportive CCNE (β= 0.033, P=0.013) can predict children's social skills. Cultural capital is directly (β= 0.11, P=0.043) related to supportive CCNE. Social capital can play a significant role in explaining how parents deal with their children's emotions (β= 0.22, P=0.001) and in some way affect their children's emotional socialization. Model fitness indices (NFI = 0.61, SRMR =0.089) also showed that the model has an acceptable fitness. Conclusion: In general, having more of these social and cultural capitals causes mental and behavioral changes in social actors (parents and children) and these changes are reflected in parents' styles in dealing with emotions as well as children's social skills.

Introduction: This study aimed to investigate the mediating role of shame and guilt emotions in the relationship between moral characters and aggression.
Method: The research method was descriptive and correlational. The participants of this study were 343 (142 males, 193 females and 8 people did not specify their gender) undergraduate students of Shiraz University in the academic year 1398 who were selected by multistage cluster sampling and completed the Moral Characters Scale (Khormaei and Ghaemi, 1397), the Shame and Guilt Proneness Questionnaire (Cohen et al, 2011) and the Aggression Scale (Bass and Perry, 1992). Data were analyzed using structural equation modeling.
Finding: The results of structural relationships showed that forgiving and pious characters predict aggression negatively and conscientiousness characters predicts aggression positively. According to the findings, honesty, etiquetee and conscientiousness characters predict feeling of guilt positively, etiquettee character predicts feeling of shame negatively and pious character has a negative relationship with the feeling of shame. Also, feeling of shame positively and feeling of guilt negatively predicted aggression. Moreover, the mediating role of shame and guilt emotions was confirmed in the relationship between moral characters and aggression (P < 0/05).
Conclusion: Overall, the findings showed that moral characters and the emotion of guilt reduce aggression.

Aim: the purpose of this study was to investigate wisdom on the basis of big five personalities through the mediating role of coping self-efficacy. Method: the sample consisted of 400 (261 women, 139 men) students from Shiraz University which were chosen via random cluster sampling method. They completed Self-Assessed Wisdom Scale, Big five personality and Coping Self-Efficacy Scale. The structural equation modeling approach were used. Results: The results indicated that the data were fitted with the model. There were direct effects of big five personalities (extraversion β= 0/16 and agreeableness β= 0/22, P=0/001) on wisdom. Also there were indirect effect big five personalities (extraversion β= 0/11, openness to experience β= 0/04, conscientiousness β= 0/14, and neuroticism β= - 0/25, P=0/001) on wisdom by the mediating role of coping self-efficacy. Conclusion: The findings suggested that big five personalities enhance wisdom directly and indirectly. Thus, training coping self-efficacy, setting the appropriate environments and designing of educational packages can help all the people with different personality to be cable of being wisdom.
