Introduction: Today, the prevalence of risky behaviors among youths has become one of the most important and widespread concerns of human societies. The aim of this study was to develop a model of the structural relationship of risky behaviors based on interpersonal sensitivities with the mediating role of emotional creativity in students of Islamic Azad Universities of Isfahan Province.

A total of 384 individuals were selected using random cluster sampling. Data were collected using with demographic questionnaire, "Youth Risk Behavior Survey", "Interpersonal Sensitivity Measure" and “Emotional Creativity Inventory”. Content validity was measured by qualitative method and reliability by internal consistency method by calculating Cronbach's alpha coefficient. Data analysis was performed in SPSS. 24 and PLS. 3.
Results: Interpersonal sensitivities were inversely and negatively correlated with emotional creativity (β= -0.60, t= 9.87). Emotional creativity was inversely and negatively correlated with high-risk behaviors (β= -0.54, t=4.98). Interpersonal sensitivities were directly and positively correlated with high-risk behaviors (β=0.41, t=5.85). Finally, the correlation of interpersonal sensitivity with risky behaviors was confirmed by emphasizing the mediating role of emotional creativity (t=80.59). According to the model results, the prediction of students' high-risk behaviors based on interpersonal sensitivity had a favorable fit due to the mediating role of emotional creativity in students.
