Abstract

The aim of this study was to develop a coronary anxiety model in students based on the dimensions of positive psychology. The research method was descriptive correlational studies and structural equation modeling. The statistical population included all high school students in Mashhad in the year 2021-2022 with 983 people who were selected using Cochran's formula and simple random sampling method of 276 people. The data collection tools were corona anxiety and positive psychology questionnaires. The validity of the questionnaires was confirmed using content and face validity. Its reliability was obtained through Cronbach's alpha coefficient of 0.77 and 0.89, respectively. In addition to descriptive statistics, statistical techniques such as Pearson correlation coefficient, multiple regression and structural equation modeling were used to analyze the data. The results showed that the dimensions of positive psychology (happiness, mental well-being, optimism, self-worth, hope, interpersonal skills and responsibility) have a direct and significant effect on coronary anxiety in students. The results of the fit model indices indicated a good fit of the model, and in fact the general result is that the designed model of students' coronary anxiety based on the dimensions of positive psychology has a good fit.
