Introduction: The Covid-19 epidemic brought a high level of fear and anxiety. The results of previous studies have shown that the variables of fear of Covid-19, behavioral inhibition system, and negative emotion regulation strategies have a crucial role in predicting psychological well-being. Therefore, the present study aimed to investigate the relationship between fear of Covid-19 and psychological well-being and the mediating role of the behavioral inhibition system and negative emotion regulation strategies in this context.Materials and Methods: The design of the present study was descriptive-correlational and of the path analysis type. The statistical population of this study included Iranian adults, of whom 450 individuals were selected using the available sampling method. Data were collected using the Rif short form of the Psychological Well-Being Questionnaire, the Fear of Covid-19 Scale, the Behavioral Activation and Inhibition Scale, and the Persian short form of the Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire. Pearson correlation method, multiple regression and path analysis were used for data analysis.Results: The results of the present study show that there is a significant relationship (P<0.01) between the fear of covid-19, behavioral inhibition system, and negative emotion regulation strategies with psychological well-being. In addition, the bootstrap results show that the mediating role of the behavioral inhibition system (0.001) and negative emotion regulation strategies (0.006) is significant.Conclusion: Psychological well-being is predicted through the path of fear of covid-19, behavioral inhibition system, and negative emotion regulation strategies.

Materials & Methods: This was a semi-experimental research and in this research project, 30 person with general anxiety disorder were selected from Tehran Nedaye Aramesh Ravan clinic’s clients using purposeful sampling. All subjects, in two experimental and control groups, were evaluated before and after treatment by Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire and Emotional Processing Scale. Subjects in experimental group received 8 session of metacognitive therapy based on mindfulness. After completion of treatment, all subjects were retested. Data were analyzed using Analysis of Covariance (MANCOVA).
Results: The results showed that there is a significant difference between experimental and control group in improving the negative emotion regulation strategies and emotional processing (P≤0/0005).
Conclusion: The results of this study showed that metacognitive therapy based on mindfulness can decrease negative emotion regulation strategies and emotional processing in people with general anxiety disorder.
