Objective: According to lack of detailed information on the most important factors related to quality of life in patients with coronary heart disease, the aim of this study is the modeling of psycho-social-cultural factors on the quality of life in patiants with coronary heart disease. Methods: The data were collected using hospital scales of anxiety and depression, type D personality, perceived stress , the Mediterranean diet and socioeconomic status, and short forms of Stress coping schemas and individualism of collectivism and the researcher made perceived quality of life scales . 300 patients with coronary heart disease were selected with available sampling, from the February of 2018 to the May of 2018. Analysis based on path analysis was carried out in LISREL software. Findings: Adaptive coping strategies(0.13), self-efficacy (0.028), anxiety and depression(- 0.024), type D personality(- 0.022), and socioeconomic status( 0.014 )had the most direct effects, and individualism(0.13) and Mediterranean diet (0.12 )had the most indirect effect for predicting quality of life. Conclusion: It is suggested that patients be helped for using situational coping strategies, social support, acceptance and active emotional expression, to increase the level of self-efficacy on this group and take interventions properly to reduce their anxiety and depression.

Introduction: The purpose of present study was investigating cognitive model of anxiety according to Dugas’s model about anxiety cognitive components in cancer patients. In this model cognitive variables such as intolerance of uncertainty, positive beliefs about worry, cognitive avoidance, negative problem orientation and their direct and indirect effects on worry and anxiety as structural and measurement were investigated. Method: Three hundred of cancer patients was selected from a hospital and chemotherapy clinic in Isfahan city. They were evaluated with intolerance of uncertainty scale, metacognitive questionnaire (positive beliefs about worry subscale), cognitive avoidance scale, negative problem orientation questionnaire, Pen State worry questionnaire and state- trait anxiety inventory. Data of research examined through structural equation modeling. Results: The results show that this model had good fit for cancer patients and relations between mediator variables, Endo and Exo variables are significant. Conclusion: significant variance of worry and anxiety are explained by this model in cancer patients.
