The aim of present study was examining the prediction of goal orientations- including mastery approach, mastery avoidance, performance approach and performance avoidance- by family communication patterns. The sample group included 435 girls and boys students selected randomly from high schools of Shiraz. Goal orientation scale (Elliot, MacGregor, 2001) and revised version of Koerner-Fitzpatrick Family Communication Patterns scale were used.By using simultaneous multiple regression analysis, the prediction of goal orientations-including
mastery approach, mastery avoidance, performance approach and Performance avoidance- by family communication patterns were confirmed. Results of multiple regression revealed that conversation orientation was a positive predictor of mastery approach and performance approach and conformity orientation was a positive predictor of mastery avoidance, performance avoidance and performance approach
