Objective: The purpose of this study was to unveil the causal modeling of the relationship between friends’ attachment, emotional regulation, and social competence among (JUST) students.

Based on scientific foundations, the study constructed a proposed causal relationship model using path analysis for interpreting social competence.

Methods: To achieve this goal, the Emotional Regulation - by Gross & John, (2003), Friendship Attachment Scale of Wilkinson (2008), and Texas Social Behavior Inventory (TSBI) by Helm Reich and Stapp, (1974)were all employed in this study.

The sample consisted of 380 students who were chosen on availability grounds.

Results: The results of the study showed that there were no statistically significant differences between the data of the study and the proposed model due to high matches on RMSEA = 0.0, NFI=1.00, GFI=1.00, CFI=1.00, RMR=0.00.

Conclusion: the model construed explained the proposed relationships and represented the optimal causal relationship model for the variables of the study.
