description The aim of the present study was to investigate the role of cognitive fusion and mindfulness components in the prediction of a student’s depression. This research was a descriptive-correlational study. The statistical population consisted of the students of Lorestan Universities in 2019. Among them, 340 students (186 females, 154 males) were selected through multistage cluster sampling. The data collecting tools included the Beck Depression Inventory, Cognitive Fusion Questionnaire and the Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire. For data analysis, statistical methods such as the Pearson correlation and stepwise regression were used. The results of the study indicated that the components of cognitive fusion (fusion and diffusion) had a significant and positive relation with the depression; while the components of mindfulness (observation, acting with awareness,non-judging of inner experience, describing and non-reactivity) had a significant and negative relation with depression. Also, the results of regression analysis showed that observation, acting with awareness, non-judging of inner experience, fusion and diffusion were predictors of depression, respectively. The obtained results indicate the important role of cognitive fusion and mindfulness components in students' depression. Thus, improving the cognitive status and mindfulness of the students can lead to the improvement of their mental health.
