One of the important models in the study of family functioning is the McMaster family functioning model. The aim of this study was to To find a model of the strauctural the structural equations for predicting marital conflicts based On the Mc Master model of family performance with a mediating role of the attitude of infidelity in couples in Shiraz. This study was a correlational and structural equation study in which 300 conflicting couples in Shiraz were randomly selected. Participants completed the Marital Conflict Questionnaire (MCQ), Family Assessment (FAD). Structural equation method and Pearson correlation coefficient and regression were used to analyze the findings. The results showed that there is a significant relationship between family functioning subscales with marital conflicts and attitudes toward infidelity (P <0.05).Therefore, based on the findings of this study, it can be said that apart from the effective factors of family functioning, marital conflicts and attitudes toward infidelity in couples as mediating Can be considered for the for the improvement and stability of the family system
