The aim of the present study was to predict wisdom based on the perception of fathering mediating role of ego strengths in students. The method of the present study was correlation of structural model type. The statistical population included 24,000 students of Tabriz University. The sample size of the study was 190 participants and was selected by cluster random sampling. Participants completed the Ardelt’s (2003) Wisdom Scale (3D-WS), the Dick’s Fathering Scale (2004) (FS), and the Psychological Inventory of Ego Strom et al (PIES) (1997). All structural model calculations were performed using AMOS-24 software. The results showed that ego strengths has a significant mediating role in the relationship between perception of fathering and wisdom in students, but is not directly related to the wisdom of students. In general, it can be concluded that the behavior of the father is one of the factors that indirectly, by strengthening the power of the ego, can predict how wise their children are. Accordingly, it is suggested that the frequency and healthy presence of the father in rising of wisdom in children be considered.
