This research aims to investigate the effect of job stress on deviant behaviors in the workplace, with the mediating role of job satisfaction. The statistical population of this research was all the employees of Isfahan Islamic Azad University (Khorasgan), which numbered 660, using Cochran's formula. 244 people were selected as the sample size. To collect the required data in this research, standard questionnaires were used and their validity and reliability were tested, and they were highly valid and reliable. In order to check the hypotheses of the research, Warp-PLS software was used to check the structural equations and path analysis using the partial least squares method. The results of the study carried out in the research showed that job stress has a significant positive effect on deviant behaviors in the work environment, its effect coefficient is 0.55. And according to the output of WARP software, job stress has a significant negative effect on job satisfaction, its effect coefficient is 0.44, and also the impact of job stress on deviant behaviors in the workplace through job satisfaction is positive, and its effect coefficient is 0.25. The results of this research showed that job stress has a direct effect on deviant behavior at work, and job satisfaction mediates the effect.
