The results from regression analysis of hope prediction showed a significant relationship (β = 0.13, R2 = 0.02, F = 65.65, P = 0.01), and the results from regression analysis of self-control prediction indicated a statistically significant relationship (β = 0.56, R2 = 0.22, F = 0.65, P = 0.001). Discussion and Conclusion: According to results, self-control and hope were two predictors of psychological well-being of soldiers. self-control is a stronger variable than hope in the prediction of psychological well-being, so it is recommended to offer courses to help them increase the level of hope and self-control and subsequently improvepsychological well-being. }, URL = {http://mcs.ajaums.ac.ir/article-1-224-en.html}, eprint = {http://mcs.ajaums.ac.ir/article-1-224-en.pdf}, journal = {Military Caring Sciences}, doi = {10.29252/mcs.5.3.201}, year = {2018} }
