The present study aimed to investigate the mediating role of forgiveness in the relationship between interpersonal mindfulness and anger rumination in students in Tehran. The research method was descriptive-correlation and structural equation modeling. The statistical population of the study consisted of all students at Alzahra University in Tehran in 1403, from which 262 people were selected as a sample by convenience sampling. In data collection, the Sakodolsky Anger Rumination Questionnaire (2001, Sakodolsky, ARS), Forgiveness (2005, Hartland, HFS), and Interpersonal Mindfulness (2018, Pratscher et al., IMS) questionnaires were used. The results showed that the proposed research model had a favorable fit. The findings also showed that the path of interpersonal mindfulness to anger rumination is negative and significant (P<0.05). The path of interpersonal mindfulness to forgiveness is positive and significant (P<0.05). Similarly, it can be seen that the direct path of forgiveness to anger rumination is negative and significant (P<0.05). Other results showed that the indirect effect of the interpersonal mindfulness variable on the anger afterthoughts variable through forgiveness is significant (p<0.05). The indirect effect of the interpersonal mindfulness variable on the retaliatory thoughts variable through forgiveness is significant (p<0.05). The indirect effect of the interpersonal mindfulness variable on the anger memories variable through forgiveness is significant (p<0.05). The indirect effect of the interpersonal mindfulness variable on the cause recognition variable through forgiveness was also significant (p <0.05). From the above findings, it can be concluded that interpersonal mindfulness can affect anger rumination in students of Al-Zahra University of Tehran through forgiveness.
