Life satisfaction is considered one of the key variables in mental health among older adults and is associated with various factors. Consequently, the present study aimed to determine the relationship between distress tolerance and perceived social support with life satisfaction in older adults residing in nursing homes. This descriptive correlational study included a population comprising all older adults living in nursing homes in Isfahan city in 2024. A total of 150 individuals were selected as a convenience sample. The research tools included the Distress Tolerance Questionnaire by Simons and Gaher, the Perceived Social Support Questionnaire by Zimet, and the Satisfaction With Life Scale by Diener. Data were analyzed using Pearson correlation coefficients and simultaneous multiple regression, with SPSS version 26 software. The results indicated a significant relationship between distress tolerance and perceived social support with life satisfaction among nursing home residents (P < 0.001), collectively explaining 90.1% of the variance in life satisfaction. Perceived social support had a greater contribution to this prediction. In conclusion, by identifying the variables of distress tolerance and perceived social support, it is possible to predict the life satisfaction of nursing home residents. It is recommended that greater attention be given to these psychological variables by professionals in the field of aging.
