ABSTRACT
Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine the mediating role of the uncompromising initial schemas in the relationship between personality and hardiness
Method: The present study was a descriptive-correlational study. The statistical population included students from Payame Noor University of Qom. Based on the first stage sampling, the Faculty of Psychology was selected randomly and 550 persons were available as an example to the Big Five Factor Personality Inventory [Costa and McQuery, 1985], Early Maladaptive Schema Questionnaire [Yang, 1990] and, Personal Views Survey [PVS; Institute of Hardness, 1985] responded
Results: Path analysis showed that the research model had a good fit and 23% of the variance in the schema of separation and exclusion was explained through the neuroticism, extroversion, openness to experience, consensus, and taskability. Also, these veins and the separation and rejection schema had the ability to explain 30 percent of the toughness variance
Conclusion: The initialized schemas have a mediatorial role in relation to personality traits and hardiness. Regarding the findings, it can be argued that the personality tracks and the initialized schemas play an important role in predicting student hardiness
