Introduction: The importance of the Air Forcechr('39')s ability to protect and defend any country is obvious. The well-performed air force depends on the capabilities, mental and physical health of staff. Family as an environmental factor plays a significant role in the development and maintenance of mental health disorders. Objective: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between family function and stress, anxiety and depression in Isfahan Air Force pilots during 2019-2020. Materials and Methods: In this descriptive study, 120 military air force pilots completed the standard family functioning (FAD), anxiety, stress and depression (DASS) questionnaires. After excluding invalid questionnaires, data were collected from 103 individuals and analyzed in SPSS20. The significant level is considered 0.05. Results: Linear regression analysis showed that the family function was scored 0.16, 0.05 and 0.05 in in depression, anxiety and stress, respectively. The family function was a significant predictor of depression, anxiety and stress in participants. The results showed that based on beta coefficients , each 0.25, 0.24 and 0.24 change in family performance score resulted in a significant change in participantschr('39') depression, anxiety and stress scores, respectively (P <0.05).
