The family is an important part of human fate and plays a vital role in choosing the style and career of future life, pshychic and emotional health and human performance. Parents' personality, their psychological and physical health, and also the parenting styles they employ, affect the children’s behaviors. The aim of this study was to test the causal relationship between parental meta-emotion and child resiliency, mediated by the role of emotional intelligence. A total of 240 participants were selected from Yasuj university students in school year 1392-1393.The data were gathered using 3 inventories: Conner-Davidson Resilience Scale(CD-RISC), the Emotional Intelligence Scale Sharing (EISSH) and Swinburne Meta-Emotion Philosophy Scale (SMEPS). The results of data analysis showed that there is a good fit between the model and the gathered data. The direct paths from coaching to emotional intelligence, awareness to emotional intelligence, emotional intelligence to resiliency and coaching to resiliency were significant. The indirect paths from coaching to resiliency and awareness to resiliency were also significant. But the direct path from awareness to resiliency was not significant. The model showed a causal relationship between parental meta-emotion and child resiliency, mediated by the role of emotional intelligence. This shows that parental awareness of different kinds of children’s emotions and guiding them when experiencing these emotions, would be a good help for them to improve their emotional proficiency, emotional management and making a good relationship with others.As a results, it can enhance children’s compatibilities and resiliency in difficult situations.
