The purpose of this study was to predict the students' boredom in social studies based on the variables of classroom structure, teaching quality and support Affective of the teacher. The statistical population of this study was all 9th grade high school students in Shiraz, in the academic year 1395-96. A sample of 379 people was selected by random cluster sampling. To collect the required data, the questionnaire was used for the study of academic boredom (Pekrun et al., 2002 and 2005), the quality of teaching by Cyriakides et al. (2000), Affective support of teacher Sakiz (2007) and the classroom structure of Eliot and Charch (2001). Data analysis was performed using appropriate statistical tests at descriptive and inferential levels. The results showed that the dimensions of class structure (task, Authority and Harsh in Evaluation) were able to predict academic boredom, and there was a negative and significant relationship between these dimensions and academic boredom of students in social studies lessons. On the other hand, the dimension focus evaluation ability to predict students' boredom was not a social studies lesson. Other findings indicated that there is a negative and significant relationship between the quality of teaching and affective support of the teacher to the students' academic boredom in the social studies lesson and the ability to predict academic boredom.

The present paper aims to study the influence of the perception of family communication patterns (including conversation and conformity orientations) as well as structure of the class (including tasks, meticulous assessment, emphasis on evaluation authority) onacademic buoyancy, and investigate the mediatory role of selfefficacy dimensions therein. Using multi-stage random cluster sampling method, ٣٣٧ subjects (١٧٦ females and ١٦١ males) were selected from among high school students in the city of Mehriz. The research instruments included a version of the Revised Family Communication Pattern (١٩٩٧), the Class Structure Questionnaire (٢٠٠١), a version of self-efficacy dimensions (٢٠٠١), and the Academic Buoyancy Questionnaire (١٣٩١). Cronbach’s alpha coefficient was used to test the instruments’ reliability, and their validity was tested by using factor analysis and internal consistency methods. The instruments proved to be reliable and valid. The research data was analyzed using path analysis method with simultaneous regression as suggested by Baron and Kenny (١٩٨٦). In general, the results indicated that some dimensions of family communication patterns and class structure can directly predict the academic buoyancy. Moreover, some dimensions of family communication patterns and class structure directly predict selfefficacy''s dimensions. Finally, after calculating the obtained ١.

The results of the study were discussed with regard to previous studies and some suggestions were made for further research in the field.
