Abstract :

           T he aim of the present study was to examine the mediating role of social problem solving in the relationship between types of  self-efficacy and anger.Three hundred and ninety students (228 females,162 males) were selected using multistage cluster sampling method from Shiraz University. The participants completed the Social Problem-Solving Inventory. (D’Zurill et al., 2002), the State and Trait Anger Expression Inventory (Spilberger, 1999), the Emotional Self-Efficacy Scale (Kirk et al., 2008), the Creative Self-Efficacy Scale (Karwowski, 2010), and the Perceived Social Self-Efficacy Scale (Smith & Betz, 2000). The results of path analysis indicated that all types of self-efficacy were significant predictors of constructive problem solving but only the creative self-efficacy significantly predicted non-constructive problem solving. Dimensions of social problem Solving were significant predictors of anger as well. Moreover, the mediating role of social problem solving in the relationship between types of self-efficacy and anger was confirmed. The fit indices indicated that the model had good fit indices.
