Introduction: Internet addiction is a growing phenomenon that has harmful psychological-behavioral effects on users. The present study was conducted with the aim of investigating the relationship between moral intelligence and communication skill s with the mediation of psychological distress in secondary school students of Tabriz city.

Structural equation modeling (SEM) was used to analyze the data. SPSS 26 and LISREL 8.80 statistical software were used to classify, process and analyze data and test research hypotheses. Results: The fit indices of the proposed model show its optimal fit (χ2/df=2.93, CFI=0.97, GFI=0.91, AGFI=0.88, RMSEA=0.06, RMR=0.03). The results showed that moral intelligence (β=-0.167, P<0.001) and communication skill s (β=-0.525, P<0.001) have a significant indirect relationship with Internet addiction.
