Abstract :

Introduction: Family is the most fundamental institution in the society which plays a basic role in producing healthy individual and consequently healthy society. It goes without saying that a proper and coherent emotional atmosphere in a family leads to the growth and self-development of individuals and makes them capable to solve problems effectively, thereby creating a coherent society. This study aims to investigate how the Social Problem-solving ability mediates between the Emotional Family Atmosphere and Social Well-being. Method: The Statistical population includes all students in the provincial capitals of the western provinces in Iran. The statistical sample of the study consists of 377 students from 4 cities across the country. The sampling was conducted based on a multi-stage clustered random method. Following questioners were sued to collect the data: The Emotional Family Atmosphere (Hill Bern 1964), the Social Well-Being (Keyes 2004), and the Social Problem-solving Ability (D’Zurilla, et al. 2002). The analysis of the data, based on the formation of the casual model in the Smart PLS 3.2.8 software, shows that the general model of the project matches the collected data. Results: The results of the validity and reliability factors in studying the external model are optimal. In the internal section of the model collinearity criteria, the amounts of t, R2, F2, and Q2 are acceptable. The results of the direct effect of the Emotional Family Atmosphere on the Efficient and Ineffective Problem-solving, the direct effect of the Efficient and the Inefficient Problem-solving on Social Well-being, and also the indirect effect of the Emotional Family Atmosphere on Social Well-being are all meaningful (P≤0/01). Conclusion: The results of the analysis of the effect size and the importance-performance matrix analysis indicate that it is of fundamental importance for psychologists to discourage individuals from applying the “Inefficient Problem-Solving’’ while promoting the ‘’Emotional Family Atmosphere’’ which has a significant role on social well-being.
