Abstract

The purpose of this study was to The mediating role of emotion regulation in rejection parental and mental pain in people with self-injury.The research method was descriptive in the form of structural equations. The statistical population of this study included all adolescents girl and boy with self-injury in Robat-Karim And Islamshahr city of Tehran in summer of 1398 That the sample size 204 people Selected as available. Research tools included the Clonsky & Glenn Self-harm Function Inventory Scale (ISAS), the Sanson et al Self-injury questionnaire (SHI), the Gratz & Roemer emotion regulation difficulties Scale (DERS), The Parental Acceptance-Rejection Questionnaire (PARQ), the Oerbach & Mikulincer Mental Pain Scale (OMMP). Data were analyzed using structural equation method using Emus 24 software. The results showed that the conceptual model of the research, which assumed mental pain, parental rejection, and emotion regulation, predicted self-injury behaviors. Parental rejection had indirect effect on self-injury due to emotion regulation (β = 0.148, P = 0.050). Parental rejection is as much a preparation for childhood Causes one to resort to maladaptive emotional regulation strategies in response to the mental pain arising from parental rejection, which ultimately leads to self-injury behaviors as behavioral strategies.
