Introduction: The relationship between social perspective taking and self-control with prosocial personality of the community is significant. The purpose of the present research was to study the Model Of Relationship Between Social Perspective Taking And Self-Control with prosocial personality via mediator role of emotional empathy among teachers. Method: The research design is descriptive-correlational using path analysis method. The statistical population of the study consisted of all teachers working at schools in Sanandaj in 2017. In this study, 425 teachers participated. They were selected based on categorical random sampling method. The participants completed the Social Perspective Taking (Mohaghegi et al., 2016), Self-control (Nikmanesh, 2007), Prosocial behavior (Penner, 2002), and Emotional Empathy (Mehrabian & Epstain, 1972) questionnaires. Data analysis was conducted through AMOS software using path analysis method. Results: The results showed that the final model has good fitness with the data. The path analysis model has determined that Pro-social Personality is influenced by social perspective taking directly and indirectly, and by self-control indirectly. Therefore, it can be concluded that social perspective taking and self-control play important roles in the pro-sociality of teachers. Conclusion: Findings show that Emotional Empathy play a significant mediating role for social perspective taking with prosocial personality and not for self-control.
