Methods: The present study was a descriptive correlation and statistical population included all elderly men with cardiovascular disease referred to hospitals in Qazvin in 1398, which was performed by targeted sampling. A total of 230 people were selected and then answered four questionnaires of the perceived social support scale of Zimet et al. 1998, the self-sufficiency scale of Jalali et al., The 1989 psychological well-being scale, and the Lutans Psychological Capital Scale. In order to analyze the data, regression analysis test and path analysis method were used using SPSS software version 16.
Results: The results of data analysis showed that there is no significant relationship between perceived social support and self-sufficiency, but there is a significant relationship between perceived social support and psychological well-being and between self-sufficiency and psychological well-being of the elderly; Perceived and psychological well-being does not play a mediating role, but acts as a mediator between self-sufficiency and psychological well-being.
