Abstract
The study aims at investigating the relationship between the cognitive constructs of those who crave for marriage and those who elude marriage and psychological well-being and meaning of life. This is a descriptive research conducted using the correlational method. The statistical sample includes 106 people either eluding or craving for marriage, who were selected by simple random sampling method. The data collection tools used in this study included the researcher-made questionnaire of marriage approach, Reef's Psychological Well-being Questionnaire, the Questionnaire of Desire for Marriage, and Steger's Meaning in Life Questionnaire. In terms of the purpose, this is a fundamental research with applied implications and has been conducted in two steps. First, it has begun by collecting qualitative data to design the marriage approach scale in two stages, with the qualitative method used in the first stage and the correlational method used in the second stage. The research data were collected in the first stage using the qualitative method based on theories and using in-depth interviews with two groups of people, one eluding marriage and the other craving for marriage. Having made the questionnaire in the second stage, we evaluated its validity and reliability (using Lawshe's model to evaluate its validity and using the Cronbach's alpha coefficient to evaluate its reliability). The statistical analysis of the second research question showed that the coefficient of the correlation between psychological well-being and marriage approach did not exceed 0.85. Therefore, there is no multicolinearity between the variables (p>0.05), and no significant association was observed in any one of the cases between psychological well-being and the marriage approach, and thus the research hypothesis is rejected. The statistical analysis of the third research question showed that, regardless of the total score of psychological well-being, the coefficient of the correlation between the meaning of life and marriage approach did not exceed 0.85. Therefore, there is no multicolinearity between the variables (p>0.05). On the other hand, the results showed that the search for meaning in life has no significant relationship with any one of the dimensions of psychological well-being (p>0.05), but the presence of meaning in life has a significant positive relationship with all dimensions of psychological well-being (p<0.05).

Methods: This research was a correlational study. In order to gather the data, three questionnaires, including Oxford Happiness Inventory (Hill and Argyle, 2002), Young Schema Questionnaire (Young, 1990) and Self-Compassion Scale (Neff, 2003) were used. Statistical population included middle school students and their mothers in Tehran. From among this population, 384 individuals were selected through random cluster sampling. Data was analyzed through analysis of structural equations. Findings : data Obtained indicated that parents’ cognitive schemas have direct influence on children’s happiness. Among the 15 parents’ maladjustment schemas, the incompetency incompetency, mistrust, social isolation, unrelenting standards, insufficient self-control, and defectiveness had significant effect on children’s happiness. Moreover, the mediating role of self-compassion and happiness in children was significantly influenced by mistrust, social isolation, unrelenting standards, and insufficient self- control schemas. Conclusion: Parents whose life experiences have shaped maladaptive schemas in their life have negative effects on their children’s positive emotion, and decrease the happiness of their children through their wrong behaviors.

Abstract
The present research aimed at investigating the relationship between upbringing methods and children's happiness with the mediating role of parents' self-compassion among junior high school students in Tehran in the school year of 2018-2019. The study employed descriptive-correlational methodology. The population included junior high-school students with their mothers living in Tehran. 384 students along with their mothers were selected through multistage clustering method. Three questionnaires were used in this study: Oxford Happiness Questionnaire, Baumrind's Parenting Style questionnaire, and Neff's Self-compassion questionnaire.
The collected data was analyzed through Path Analysis and Lisrel. The results showed that the mediating role of parenting style was not significant with respect to the relationship between self-compassion and children's happiness (p>0/05). However, the direct effects of three variables, self-compassion, dictatorial parenting, and strict parenting were found to be meaningful (p<0/05).
The direction effect of dictatorial style on happiness was negative. The direction effect of self-compassion and strict style on happiness was positive. The aforementioned variables predict 49% of the score variance in happiness.
