Since life is constantly changing and people face new and increasing challenges, adapting to themselves and the environment is a must for the living being. The purpose of this study was to develop a structural model of social adjustment based on academic self-efficacy and family functioning mediated by cognitive strategies. The research method was correlational descriptive. The statistical population of the study consisted of 308 nursing students (MA) in Kurdistan University of Medical Sciences. Based on Morgan table, 220 students (110 boys, 110 girls) were selected through stratified random sampling. The results showed that the structural model of social adjustment with family function and academic self-efficacy mediated by metacognitive strategies on nursing students showed empirical data. Structural analysis also showed that two variables of family functioning and self-efficacy beliefs directly and indirectly through students' metacognition had a significant effect on students' social adjustment and metacognitive variables had a significant effect on students' social adjustment. Considering the influence of environmental factors that are constantly changing itself, it is necessary to pay attention to the ability to adapt to these conditions.

The aim of present research was to study and comparison of identity styles of Shahed adolescent students and its related factors. In this research 366 students between 12-18 years old were selected from Tehran Shahed schools through stratified random sampling method. Data was collected by Identity Styles Inventory (ISI), Adolescence Coping Scale (ACS), and Family Functioning Scale (FFS). Results indicated that: (1) there are any significant differences between male and female students in identity styles except in diffuse/avoidant style, (2) the significant relationship was found between age, family functioning components and identity styles, and (3) a relationship was observed between coping and identity styles. Results showed that identity formation in Shahed adolescents is the same as with other adolescents. In other hand, good affective relationship among family members can be influence in successful identity formation.
