The purpose of this article was to explain the relationship between attachment styles and epistemological beliefs with students' empathy, which according to the nature of the research, the research method is descriptive-correlational. The study population includes male and female undergraduate, graduate and doctoral students of the Islamic Azad University of Garmsar in the academic year of 1998-99 with a number of 6000 students, of which 400 students (222 females and 178 males) as Available were selected. The statistical sample completed the Schumer (1990) Epistemological Beliefs Questionnaire, Hezan and Schiver (1987) and Toronto (2009) Empathy Attachment Questionnaires simultaneously. SPSS and Lisrel software were used to analyze the data. Findings showed that attachment has a direct positive relationship with empathy and is able to predict it. Knowledge stability, learning speed and knowledge simplicity are related to the path of avoidant attachment style and are negatively and indirectly related to empathy. Learning speed was mediated by anxiety attachment style and negatively correlated with empathy. The inherent ability and simplicity of knowledge through a secure attachment style were able to predict empathy. Of the only contextual variables, marital status was a good predictor of empathy. Other variables were not able to predict empathy or did not show a strong and significant relationship. According to the results of this research, it can be said; A person's experience of the quality of attachment can predict the growth of epistemological beliefs as well as the extent of his empathetic behavior.

Data collection tools are semi-structured in-depth interviews. Data were analyzed in three stages of open, axial and selective coding. Data validation was performed by participants using the verification method. Based on the research findings, dimensions and components were identified in six dimensions including: causal conditions, axial phenomena, contextual factors, intervening conditions, strategies, and consequences. In selective coding, 17 main categories and 44 subcategories were extracted which were placed in the form of a paradigm model.
