Data collected by the above tools were analyzed by Pearson correlation coefficient and multiple regression with enter model methods in SPSS software version 19. The results of Pearson correlation coefficients showed that verbal skill (r= -0.169), feedback skill (r= -0.117), interpersonal relationships (r= -0.367) and emotional regulation (r= -0.420) had a negative and significant relationship with tendency to social networks (P<0.05), but listening skill (r= -0.085) had no significant relationship with the tendency to social networks (P>0.05). The results of multiple regression with enter model showed that interpersonal relationships and emotion regulation could significantly explain 28.5% and the dimensions of interpersonal relationships could significantly explain 4.6% of the changes of tendency to social networks (P<0.05).
