description Abstract Background and Aims The aim of this study was to present a health‐promotion behaviors model in the elderly based on psychological capital, social support, and attitudes toward death mediated with mediating role of emotional cognitive regulation strategies in the elderly in Ardabil. Methods The research method was correlational which was done by the path analysis method. The statistical population of the study consisted of all elderly people in Ardabil in 2020, from which 250 people were selected by convenient sampling method and were investigated with research tools including Health‐Promotion Lifestyle Profile (1998), attitudes toward death profile (1994), Psychological Capitals (2007), social support (1988) and Cognitive Emotion Regulation (2001). Data were analyzed by Amos‐24 software and using structural equation modeling. Results The results showed that psychological capital, social support, and attitude towards death directly affect health‐promotion behaviors and also indirectly improve them through cognitive emotion regulation strategies. These results can have a significant impact on promoting health and improving the quality of life of the elderly population. Conclusions Based on the findings of the present study, it can be claimed that the proposed model for the health of the elderly has an acceptable fitness and this model can be used in developing educational programs and intervention techniques to improve the health of this group of people.
