AbstractSocial anxiety has a chronic and continuous process and is highly related to childhood and family. The aim of this study was determine the relationship between parents' obsessive beliefs and social anxiety in children with emotion regulation mediation. The research design was descriptive and correlational. The statistical population was 500 female students who were members of the Telegram virtual networks of the Faculty of Psychology of the Islamic Azad University, South Tehran Branch. The statistical sample consisted of 600 students including 200 female students and 400 parents who were selected by voluntary sampling. The Social Anxiety Scale (Michael Leibovitz, 1987) was completed by students, and the Obsessive Beliefs Questionnaire (Obsessive Compulsive Cognitions Working Group, 2003), and the short form of the Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (Garnefsky, Gerich, & Spinhaven, 2002) were completed by parents. Pearson torque correlation tests and path analysis were used to test the hypotheses. Findings showed that parents' obsessive beliefs with their non-adaptive emotion regulation strategies, and parents' non-adaptive emotion regulation strategies with social anxiety in their children have a positive relationship, with a significance level of p≥0.05.
