To analyze data, Pearson Correlation and Hierarchical Regression Analysis have been run. Results: Due to the emphasis of research literature on the importance of demographic information, like gender and education level, and with attention to their significant relations with original re-search variables, in order to statistical control of them, they entered in the first step of Hierarchical Regression Analysis after dummy coding of gender and effect coding of education level. The results showed that there was a significant relationship between SOC life-management strategies and Health-Promoting lifestyle (as this study expected, SOC life-management strategies have a positive relationship with Health-Promoting lifestyle). Total score of SOC life-management strategies could positively predict the sub-fields of “interpersonal relations”, “health-responsibility”, and “stress management” of Health-Promoting lifestyle. Discussion: Our results clearly show that one of the most important factors for achieving a health-promoting lifestyle, are SOC life management strategies.
