Corona Stress Scale (CSS-18), Oppositional Defiant Disorder Rating Scale (ODDRS), Ahvaz Aggression Questionnaire (AAQ), and a researcher-made question to measure the involvement severity of corona disease were used for gathering data. Data Analyzing was conducted with Pearson correlation and path analysis and also SPSS-26 and AMOS-23 software. The results showed that the involvement severity with corona disease (0.20), corona stress (0.27) and aggression (0.25) can predict the symptoms of ODD. The involvement severity with corona disease (0.33) and corona stress (0.32) can predict aggression. The involvement severity with corona disease (0.08) and corona stress (0.08) can indirectly predict the syndrome of ODD through the mediation of aggression. According to the findings, it can be concluded that the corona involvement severity and corona stress in parents can directly and indirectly develop the symptoms of ODD in children by increasing aggression in parents.
