Methodology: This sudy was carried out as sructural equations on 250 MS patients in Tabriz in 2018, who completed emotional self-regulation, problem-solving, disease perception, and resilience quesionnaires. LISREL software and sructural equations were used to calculate the ftting share. Results: Direct, signifcant correlations were observed between emotion- al self-regulation and disease perception, emotional self-regulation and re- silience, and disease perception and resilience, so that positive emotional self-regulation could predict disease perception. The direct correlations of positive and negative orientation with disease perception, components of logical problem-solving, impulsive syle, and disease perception, as well as resilience and disease perception were also considered signifcant. However, the correlation of direct positive orientation with resilience, logical prob- lem-solving, and disease and negative orientation with resilience, impulsive syle, and disease perception, as well as the causal correlations of the avoid- ance syle with disease perception and resilience were not signifcant. Conclusion: Emotional self-regulation and resilient mediation play a key role in the disease perception of MS patients, and the obtained model could be considered as a therapeutic protocol.
