Research Method was descriptive study with correlational design .The population of this study consisted of gifted students in Esfahan city in the academic year of 1393-94. 137 students (95 boys and 42 girls) were selected by systematic random sampling. They answered three questionnaires which consist of Avril's questionnaire of emotional creativity (1999), McMaster Family Function dimensions questionnaire (1983) and Endler and Parker coping style questionnaire (1990). The validity and reliability of these scales were approved. Path analysis was used to analyze the data. The findings showed that there is a direct and negative relationship between behavior control and overall performance factors, and emotional creativity. In addition, the results showed that there is a positive relationship between Problem-focused style and emotional creativity whereas there is a negative relationship between emotion-focused style and emotional creativity. The family function factor has negative influence on emotional creativity due to problem-focused and emotion-focused style. Based on these results, it can be claimed that family has an important and influential role in emotional creativity of gifted students. In sum, these findings tell us those students who have more emotional creativity use more Problem-focused coping style against stresses and strains of life.
