In the current study, the relationship between Life Management Strategies of selection, optimization, and compensation (SOC), and healthy lifestyle (As the Original Indicator of Successful Aging) have been investigated. The participants consist of 300 people (154 male, and 146 female) lived in Hamedan City who have been Chosen by Multiple-Stage Cluster sampling method. To evaluate Life Management Strategies, SOC questionnaire (Baltes, P., Baltes, M., Freund, & Lang, 1999), and for evaluate healthy lifestyle, Health Promoting Lifestyle Profile (HPLP-II) (Walker & Hill-Polerecky, 1996) have been used. To analyze data, Pearson Correlation andHierarchical Regression Analysis have been run. The results showed that there was a significant relationship between SOC Life Management Strategies and healthy lifestyle (as this study expected, SOC Life Management Strategies have a positive relationship with healthy lifestyle). But SOC Life Management Strategies could only predict the sub-field of health-responsibility of healthy lifestyle. Also, Compensation could only predict the sub-field of health-responsibility of healthy lifestyle. The results of the study have been discussed in the grounds of health promoting models and personality Characteristics models
