This study aimed to predict the role of emotional repression, anger dimensions, and interpersonal problems in high-risk behaviors of Tabriz University students. Methods: This study is a descriptive-correlation study. After the initial interview, 270 Tabriz University students who had at least one high-risk behavioral experience were selected through available sampling. Participants included the "Spielberger's State-Trait Anger Expression Inventory-2" (STAXI-2), the "Weinberger's Adjustment Inventory," the "Interpersonal Problem Log" (IIP-32: Inventory of They completed the Interpersonal Problems -32) and the High-Risk Behavior Questionnaire. The validity of the questionnaires was confirmed in previous studies, and reliability was measured and confirmed using Cronbach's alpha. Data were analyzed by SPSS 22 software. Results: Among the components of research, the components of consideration of others (β = - 0.35), aggression (β = 0.46) and support and participation (β = - 0.33), anger suppression and aggression (β = 0.49). Tendency to physical anger (β = 0.42) and anger expression- in (β = 0.29) were able to predict high-risk behaviors. Based on the coefficient of determination, it can be said that in general, the criterion variables in the model can explain 16% (R2 = 0.16) of the variance in the risk behaviors variable. Conclusions: Emotional repression, dimensions of anger, and interpersonal problems are essential determinants of high-risk behaviors. Therefore, it is suggested that programs such as emotion management and interpersonal problem-solving skills be included in high-risk behavior programs. %> http://jhpm.ir/article-1-991-en.pdf %P 59-68 %& 59 %! %9 Research %L A-10-1270-1 %+ Faculty of Education & Psychology, University of Tabriz, Tabriz, Iran %G eng %@ 2251-8614 %[ 2020
