The aim of this study was to determine the mediating role of competence perception and social problem-solving in the relationship between attachment styles and aggression in adolescents. The statistical population of the present study consisted of all adolescent students in Shahriar city in the academic year 1399-1398, of which 200 people entered the study by convenience sampling method. Research instruments included the Aggression Questionnaire (Bass and Perry, 1992), Revised Adult Attachment Scale (Collins and Reed, 1990), Self-Perception Profile for Children (Harter, 1985), and Revised Form of Social Problem Solving (D’Zurilla et al., 2002). Data were analyzed using structural equation modeling. The results of the present study showed that competence perception (P = 0.001, β = -0.104) and adaptive problem solving (P = 0.001, β = 0.096) mediate the relationship between secure attachment style and aggression in adolescents. They cry. Adolescents with a secure attachment style will feel more competent in interactions with the environment and in the face of environmental failures will use less negative emotion regulation strategies and as a result, will exhibit less aggressive behaviors.
