The purpose of this study was to explain the effect of religiosity& parenting style on meaning in life by mediating of identity style in female adolescent through structural equations modelling. This is a correlation study using causal modeling. The statistical population of the study was 4476 students in the third year of high school. A sample of 200 people was selected through multistage cluster random sampling. . Measurement tools included a religiosity questionnaire (Glock & Stark,1966), identity style (Berzonsky, 1989), Parenting Style (Baumrind,1991), and meaning in life questionnaire (Steger et al., 2006). Data were analyzed using structural equation modeling approach. . The findings indicated that the direct effect of the variables of religiosity, parenting style and identity style, on the meaning variable in life was significant. Also, the indirect effect of religiosity variable on a meaning in life is significant if the variable of identity style is mediator. Consequently, meaning in life is anticipated through religiosity, parenting style and identity style.
