The present research investigates the role of negative perfectionism and experiential avoidance in academic stress with the mediating role of fear of negative evaluation in Yazd University students. The type of research is descriptive correlation. The statistical population of research were all 14470 students of Yazd University who were studying in the academic year 2021-2022, of which 384 were selected by the available method and using Morgan table. The research instruments included the standard questionnaires of perfectionism of Hill (2004), the acceptance and practice questionnaire of Bond et al. (2011), Fear of Negative Assessment of Watson & Friend (1969), and Godzella SLSI Student Stress Scale (1991). The validity of the questionnaire is confirmed by using the divergent validity method with PLS software and the reliability of the questionnaire is confirmed by using Cronbach's alpha test. Data analysis is performed using SPSS26 and SmartPLS2 software’s. The results showed that the two variables of negative perfectionism and experiential avoidance have significant effect on predicting academic stress. The two variables of negative perfectionism and empirical avoidance have significant effect on predicting academic stress with the mediating role of fear of negative evaluation.

The current study aimed to examine the mediating role of academic procrastination, academic stress and sleep quality on the causal relationship between social network addiction and academic achievement of the high school students. This research is a descriptive correlational study. Statistical population covered all the students in Urmia high schools. Study participants were 204 female and 156 male students who were selected through cluster random sampling. Data were collected by using Turel and Serenko’social network addiction questionnaire (2012), Solomon and Rothblum’s academic procrastination questionnaire (1984), Sun, Dunne, Hou and Xu’s academic stress scale (2011), and Pittsburgh’s sleep quality scale (1989) and the mark average of previous term for measuring academic achievement. Data were analyzed by using Pearson correlation and structural equation modeling. Results showed that social network addiction has an indirect negative effect on academic achievement through creating academic procrastination, decreasing sleep quality and increasing academic stress. Increased use of social network increases procrastination among students and spending excessive amounts of time in these networks reduces quality of sleep that both of them, in turn, increase academic stress which leads to dropout.

This study examined the mediating effect of cognitive emotion regulation strategies on the relationship between perceived academic stress and achievement emotions. In a sample consisting of 330 university students, the Perceived Academic Stress Questionnaire (PASQ, Zajacova, Lynch & Espenshade, 2005), the Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (CERQ, Garnefski, Kraaij & Spinhoven, 2001), and Achievement Emotion Questionniare-Revised (AEQ-R, Abdollahpour, 1394) were administered. Structural equation modeling was used to assess the mediating effects model of cognitive emotion regulation strategies on the relationship between perceived academic stress and achievement emotions. Results showed that the partially mediated model of cognitive emotion regulation strategies on the relationship between perceived academic stress and achievement emotions had good fit to data. Furthermore, all of the regression weights in the hypothesized model were statistically significant and model' predictors accounted for 25% and 21% of the variance in positive and negative achievement emotions, respectively. In sum, the findings show that a part of available variance between conceptual cycles of perceived academic stress and positive and negative achievement emotions can be accounted for by cognitive emotion regulation strategies.
