The present research aimed to determine the mediating role of fear of negative evaluation in the relationship between helicopter parenting and social anxiety in adolescents. The present research utilized a descriptive-correlational research method employing structural equation modeling. The statistical population of this study was first and second-grade high school students of Jam City in 2023. In this research, 270 people were selected by the available sampling method. To collect the data, the Social Phobia Inventory (SPIN; Connor et al., 2000), helicopter parenting scale (HPS; Lemon and Bachmann., 2014), and Brief Fear of Negative Evaluation Scale (BFNES; Larry., 1983) were used. The results indicated that the proposed model was a good fit and helicopter parenting and fear of negative evaluation had a direct effect on social anxiety; Also, helicopter parenting had a direct effect on the fear of negative evaluation (P<0.05). The results of the bootstrap test showed that fear of negative evaluation played a mediating role between helicopter parenting and social anxiety (P<0.05). The results of this study suggest that the helicopter parenting style is an important factor in increasing the social anxiety of students. Also, this relationship is mediated by fear of negative evaluation. Helicopter parenting can lead to an increase in students' social anxiety due to the fear of negative evaluation and there is a linear relationship between these variables.
