Abstract
The present study aimed to predict marital conflict based on emotion regulation strategies and basic psychological need satisfaction, with the mediating role of mental health among married women in Qom. This applied study employed a descriptive-correlational design. The statistical population consisted of all married women living in Qom, from whom 300 participants were selected using convenience sampling. Data were collected using the Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (CERQ), the Basic Psychological Needs Scale (BPNS), the Symptom Checklist-90-Revised (SCL-90-R), and the Marital Conflict Questionnaire (MCQ). Data analysis was conducted using SPSS 21 and SmartPLS 3. The findings indicated that basic psychological need satisfaction significantly predicted both marital conflict and mental health. Emotion regulation strategies significantly predicted mental health but had no direct significant effect on marital conflict. Furthermore, mental health had a significant direct effect on marital conflict and significantly mediated the relationships between basic psychological need satisfaction and marital conflict, as well as between emotion regulation strategies and marital conflict. Overall, the findings highlight the pivotal role of mental health in explaining the association of basic psychological need satisfaction and emotion regulation strategies with marital conflict. Therefore, interventions aimed at improving mental health, strengthening adaptive emotion regulation strategies, and promoting satisfaction of basic psychological needs may contribute to reducing marital conflict.

Abstract
Marital commitment is one of the most important determinants of marital stability and relationship quality. Identifying its predictors can contribute to the development of effective educational and therapeutic interventions for couples. The present study aimed to predict marital commitment based on conflict resolution styles and communication patterns among married couples in Qom. This applied study employed a descriptive correlational design. The statistical population consisted of married couples living in Qom, from whom 393 participants were selected through convenience sampling. Data were collected using the Marital Commitment Inventory developed by Adams and Jones, the Communication Patterns Questionnaire developed by Christensen and Sullaway, and Rahim's Conflict Resolution Styles Questionnaire. Data were analyzed using Pearson correlation coefficients and multiple regression analysis. The findings indicated that conflict resolution styles and communication patterns significantly predicted marital commitment. Among the conflict resolution styles, the integrating style was the strongest predictor of marital commitment, while among the communication patterns, only mutual constructive communication significantly predicted marital commitment. These findings suggest that strengthening constructive conflict resolution skills and improving communication patterns may enhance marital commitment and promote marital stability. Therefore, these components should be considered in premarital education and couple counseling programs.
