Research data were analyzed using the structural equation modeling .The findings showed that relativistic thinking has effect on Stress, empathy and difficulty in emotion regulation .and dialectical thinking has positive effect on empathy and spiritual well-being. Egocentrism has positive effect on difficulties in emotion regulation and spiritual weakness and negative effect on Spiritual well-being. Stress has positive effect on difficulties in emotion regulation. Difficulties in emotion regulation have positive effect on spiritual weakness and negative effect on Spiritual well-being. Also Empathy has positive effect on spiritual well-being. Spiritual weakness has positive effect on aggression, depression and maladaptive hedonism. It has a negative effect on altruism. Spiritual well-being has a negative effect on depression and maladaptive hedonism and a positive effect on resilience, altruism, and gratitude.

The statistical population of this semi-experimental study was all about 8-12 year old elementary students from Tehran during the academic year 2019. The sample size consisted of 30 students selected through available sampling and randomly assigned to two experimental and control groups. Data were collected by Buss & Perry` aggression measurement questionnaire and Children's Empathy-Analysis Questionnaire and analysis are analyzed by the covariance analysis test. The findings showed that intervention based on the theory of mind on reducing the aggression and empathy improvement in students is significant (P≤0/05) and Intervention improved empathy as well as aggression with an impact rate of 68% and 82.4% respectively. Therefore, the intervention based on the theory of mind can increase Children's social skills by increasing their ability to understand the feelings and thoughts of others.

Abstract
Empathy is an inseparable part of social-emotional people. It plays a positive role in society, throughout people's lives, and recognizing that it forms the basis of empathy is essential. This research was conducted in order to investigate the mediating role of attention control in the relationship between problem solving and empathy. The research method of this study was descriptive-correlation. The participants of this research included 500 students of Zahedan city who were selected by cluster sampling method. In order to collect data, Hepner and Petersen's problem solving questionnaire, attention control scale, Jolliffe and Farrington's empathy questionnaire were used. Descriptive and inferential statistical methods such as Pearson correlation and structural equation modeling were used to analyzethe data using spss and Amos software. The findings showed that the direct path of problem solving to attention control (-0.458) is negative and significant. The direct path of controlling attention to cognitive emotional empathy (-0.141) is negative and significant. The direct path of problem solving to cognitive emotional empathy (-0.440) is negative and significant. Also, the mediating effect of problem solving on cognitive emotional empathy through attention control is equal to 0.072, which is positive and significant. Therefore, the research results show that it is important to pay attention to the mediating role of attention control in the relationship between problem solving and empathy, and it is necessary to pay attention to the limitations that may be caused by increasing attention control for problem solving and empathy. Theoretically, investigating the effects of increasing thesecognitive functions on empathy requires more investigation and research.
