The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of a sense of coherence, mental flexibility, and affective control in predicting post-traumatic growth in improved patients with coronavirus disease. The present research was done with the correlation method. The statistical population included all people who recovered from the coronavirus disease in the winter of 2021, and who were active on Telegram social networks. 457 people who recovered from coronavirus disease were selected by the available sampling method. Data collection was done with the post-traumatic growth Inventory (PGI, Tedeschi & Calhoun, 1996), sense of connectedness questionnaire (SCQ, Antonovsky, 1978), acceptance and action scale - second edition (AAQ-II, Bond, 2007) and emotional control scale (ACS, William, 1977). For data analysis, Pearson's correlation coefficient test and stepwise regression analysis test were used. The results of the Pearson correlation coefficient test showed that there is a relationship between a sense of coherence (r=0.257; P<0.01), mental flexibility (r=0.234; P<0.01), and affective control (r=0.332; P<0.01). There is a positive and significant relationship with post-traumatic growth. The results of regression analysis also showed that 23.1% of post-traumatic growth changes are predicted by the studied variables. Therefore, a sense of coherence, mental flexibility, and affective control play an important role in the improved patients with coronavirus disease.
