Abstract
Background and Aim: The present study was conducted with the aim of investigating the role of family functions and parenting styles of parents in predicting the aggression of students under the protection of Bushehr relief committee.

Method: The current research method was applied in terms of purpose and descriptive of the correlation type from the point of view of the method. For this purpose, using the cluster sampling method, 200 students covered by the Bushehr relief committee were selected as a statistical sample. Data collection was done using Bamrind's (1991) parenting style questionnaires, Bass and Perry (1992) aggression and Epstein, Baldwin and Bishab (1983) family functioning questionnaires. The method of data analysis using SPSS statistical software was used at the descriptive level using mean and standard deviation and at the inferential level Pearson correlation and multiple regression methods were used in a step-by-step manner.

Results: The results showed that authoritarian, assertive and permissive parenting styles together with subscales of role playing, emotional integration and communication jointly predict 48% of the variance of aggression variable. (p>0.001). Assertive and permissive parenting styles alone predict 0.02 and 0.02 changes in aggression, but this value is not significant. Authoritarian parenting style variables 0.46, role playing 0.43, emotional fusion 0.20, and communication 0.16 predict the variance of aggression variable alone.

Conclusion: By modifying the parenting style of parents and modifying the pattern of family functions, students' aggression can be significantly prevented.
