Forgiveness is one of the psychological and communication processes for increasing mental health and healing of annoyance that is necessary for the development of communicative, emotional, spiritual and physical health of a person and is related to most mental health indicators. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between anger rumination and forgiveness in students of Shahid Chamran University of Ahvaz. The current research method was correlation. 400 students (200 female and 200 male) were selected using multi- stage random sampling, and completed Anger Rumination (ARS) and Heartland Forgiveness Scales. The data were analyzed using Pearson correlation coefficient and regression analysis statistical methods. The results showed a negative and significant relationship between anger rumination with self-forgiveness and forgiveness of situation. According to the research findings, it can be concluded that anger rumination increases anger and other negative psychological emotions and does not allow the process of neutralizing and reorganizing negative reactions to annoying experiences and replacing them with the positive emotions that occur during the process of forgiveness and thus reduces forgiveness.
