Data were analyzed using Pearson correlation and multiple regression tests by SPSS. The four-step method of Baron and Kenny was used to determine the mediator role.
Results: In a sample of  275 students, 167 (60.7%) were male and 108 (39.3%) female. There was also a significant relationship between family emotional atmosphere with creative problem solving (r= 0.231 and P= 0.003) and creativity component (r= 0.243 and P= 0.021). The relationship between critical thinking and creative problem solving (r= 0.385, P= 0.002), excellence (r= 0.383, P= 0.002), and commitment (r= 0.348, P= 0.008) were also significant. Finally, the mediating role of critical thinking in the relationship between family emotional atmosphere and creative problem solving was con.
