Objective: corona heart disease started in 2019 and the most effective way to prevent its spread is to follow health protocols. Therefore, the present study aimed to provide a causal model of personality traits on the observance of corona coping protocols, the mediating role of practice of religious beliefs and threat assessment.

Then, using Neo personality questionnaires, temple religious beliefs, observance of health protocols and researcher-made threat assessment, data were collected and analyzed using AMOS software version 21 and path analysis method. Findings: The results showed that the variables of threat assessment, practice of religious beliefs and conscientiousness component had a direct and significant effect on compliance with health protocols. Also, being conscientious and agreeing through the practice of religious beliefs has a positive and indirect effect on the observance of protocols, but openness to experience a negative and indirect effect.

Conclusion: The characteristics of the fitted model predicted the observance of health protocols, based on the exogenous variables of personality, conscience, religion, and threat perception.
