This research was conducted to investigate the mediating role of cognitive emotion regulation in the relationship between personality traits with marital disaffection. The current research was a descriptive-correlation type of path analysis. The statistical population of this research was all married female students of Islamic Azad University Karaj branch in the academic year of 2023-2024. Using the available sampling method, a sample of 238 people was selected and participated in the study. Research tools included: Marital Disaffection Scale (MDS, Kayser, 1993), NEO-Five Factor Inventory (NEO-FFI, McCrae & Costa, 1985) and Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (CERQ, Garnefski & Kraaij, 2006). The data were analyzed using the path analysis method. The results of path analysis indicated the appropriate fit of the model. The findings showed that the personality traits of openness to experience and agreeableness were able to directly predict marital disaffection (p<0.001). Also, the indirect effect of neuroticism, extroversion, and conscientiousness variables on the marital disaffection variable through the compromised cognitive emotion regulation was significant (p<0.001). On the other hand, the indirect effect of the variables of openness to experience and agreeableness to the variable of marital disaffection through uncompromised cognitive emotion regulation was significant (p<0.001). These results show that personality traits, considering the important role of cognitive emotion regulation, can explain marital disaffection and it is necessary to pay attention to these factors in interaction with each other.
