The aim of this study was to investigate the role of self-concept, emotion regulation, and coronavirus anxiety in predicting self-care behaviors related with covid-19 disease. Design of this study was correlation (prediction-based). The statistical population of the study included people aged 18 to 45 years, 355 people participated in the study by available sampling method and voluntarily through online calling. Data were collected using self-care behaviors questionnaire, emotion regulation questionnaire, integrative self-knowledge scale, self‐compassion scale–short form, self-concept clarity scale and corona disease anxiety scale. Data were analyzed using correlation tests and hierarchical multiple regression analysis. The results showed a correlation test that self-concept clarity, cognitive reappraisal and coronavirus anxiety were positively and significantly correlated with self-care behaviors, but suppression was negatively and significantly correlated with it. Regression results showed that self-concept clarity, cognitive reappraisal and coronavirus anxiety were predictors of increased self-care behaviors, but suppression was negatively and significantly its predictor. According to the findings of this study, it can be used to determine educational priorities and psychological interventions to increase self-care behaviors and reduce the risk of Covid-19 disease.
