Introduction: The present study was conducted with the aim of predicting covert-related aggression based on the personality traits and Alexithymia of married women in Tehran. Method: The research method was a descriptive correlation. The statistical population included all married women who referred to cultural centers and neighborhood centers in districts 1 and 3 of Tehran in the period of 2021-2022, from which 264 people were selected as a statistical sample using a multi-stage cluster sampling method, and they were evaluated on the scale of aggression. The correspondence of Nelson and Carroll (2006), measuring the five personality traits of the short form of Neo Costa and McCrae (1985) and Toronto Bagby et al. (1994) were answered. Research data were analyzed using Pearson's correlation coefficient and multiple regression analysis using SPSS software version 26. Findings: The Pearson correlation results showed that there is a positive and significant relationship between neuroticism and Alexithymia with relational aggression. On the other hand, there is a negative and significant relationship between extroversion, openness, agreeableness, conscientiousness with covert-related aggression. In addition, the results of simultaneous regression analysis showed that neuroticism, agreeableness, and alexithymia were able to predict women's covert-related aggression. Conclusion: According to the findings of the research, by reducing neuroticism and Alexithymia and increasing women's agreeableness, their covert-related aggression decreases and it can be concluded that personality traits and Alexithymia play a role in increasing hidden covert-related aggression.

Objective: This study aimed Prediction of substance abuse tendency and Internet addiction based on perceived social support and stress coping styles by mediating emotional intelligence. Methods:The current study method was a correlation with a structural equation design. The study population included secondary school students in Tehran in the academic year 2018-2019. The sample size consisted of four hundred (400) students that based on the proposed method of Schumacher and Lomax (2004) was considered. Participants were selected by an accessible sampling method. Yung internet addiction questionnaire (1998), drug abuse (Farchad et al., 2006), emotional intelligence questionnaire based on Bradbury - Graves (2004), perceived social support developed by Zimet and colleagues (1988), The Lazarus and Folkman’ ways of coping questionnaire (1985) were completed by sample subjects. To test the hypothesis, the structural equations were used. Results: Findings suggest predictive variables of social support, stress coping strategies and emotional intelligence predict directly the tendency to drug abuse and internet addiction. Also, coping strategies and social support through emotional intelligence have a little meditative effect on the tendency to drug abuse but through the mediation have no significant effect on internet addiction.
