The research was conducted with the aim of modeling the structural relationships of health-promoting lifestyle with cognitive function through the mediation of perceived stress in the elderly with high blood pressure in Urmia city. The research is fundamental in terms of its purpose and in terms of descriptive-correlational methodology and structural equation modeling. The statistical population of this research was made up of elderly people with high blood pressure in the health centers of Urmia city in the first six months of 2012, 250 of whom were selected by convenience sampling. In order to collect data, Wilson et al.'s (2000) cognitive function questionnaires, Walker et al.'s (1990) health-promoting lifestyle, and Cohen's (1981) perceived stress questionnaires were used. Finally, by using SPSS and AMOS software version 22, necessary calculations were made and fit indices and bootstrap test were extracted for the proposed model. The findings showed that there is a direct relationship between health promoting lifestyle and cognitive performance. In addition, the findings of the bootstrap test showed that perceived stress has a mediating role in the relationship between health-enhancing lifestyle and cognitive performance; so that 6% of cognitive performance variance is accounted for by perceived stress and 18% of cognitive performance, variance is accounted for by health-enhancing lifestyle. Seen therefore, it can be concluded that the perceived stress has a mediating role in the relationship between the health-promoting lifestyle and cognitive performance.
