Relationship between Learning Styles, Problem Solving, Sensation Seeking and Cultural Intelligence with Risk of Perception: The Mediating Role of Emotion Regulation

The aim of the current research was the mediating role of emotion regulation in the relationship between learning styles, problem solving, thrill seeking and cultural intelligence with risk. In an applied research with descriptive-correlation method among drivers in the center of Tehran, 340 people were selected by available sampling method and they answered the questionnaires of learning style of Kolb (1984), Hepner and Peterson's problem solving (1982), sensation seeking of Arentt (1994), cultural intelligence of Ang and Earley (2004), emotion regulation of Gross and John (2003), and Ulleberg & Rundmo (2001)'s perception of driving risks.The highest frequency belonged to men, age range 40 to 50 years and higher education and less. The standard coefficients of the direct paths between learning style, problem solving, excitement seeking and cultural intelligence with emotion regulation are 0.41, 0.31, 0.45, 0.45, respectively and the standard coefficient of the direct path between emotion regulation and risk perception is 0.93 and The absolute fit index (GOF) for the research model was 0.38. Learning style, problem solving, excitement seeking, and cultural intelligence with the mediation of emotion regulation have a positive effect on the risk perception of Tehran drivers (P<0.05).
