The present study was conducted to determine the mediating role of emotional deprivation in the relationship between parental emotional and physical abuse and social anxiety in women. The research method was descriptive-correlation based on structural equation modeling. The statistical population of the present study included women between 20 and 40 years old who lived in Karaj city in 2022. 253 people from this community were selected by convenience sampling method. The Childhood Trauma Questionnaire (CTQ, Bernstein et al., 2003), the Social Anxiety Questionnaire (SAQ, Jarbak, 1996), and the Emotional Deprivation subscale of the Young Schema Questionnaire (YSQ, 1998) were used to collect information in this research. Structural equation modeling was used to analyze the data. The research results showed that the model was a good fit. Also, the results indicated that physical and emotional abuse of parents and emotional deprivation have a direct effect on women's social anxiety (P<0.05). Also, parental physical abuse has an indirect effect on social anxiety through the mediating role of emotional deprivation (P<0.05). However parental emotional abuse does not have an indirect effect on social anxiety through the mediating role of emotional deprivation. Therefore, it can be concluded that physical and emotional abuse by parents as well as emotional deprivation hurt the incidence of social anxiety in women, and among these, physical abuse by parents has a stronger effect.
