Introduction: Resistance to current hard conditions (coronavirus) is important and enduring emotional distress and using different emotion regulation strategies have an important impact on how people cope with stressful situations. The present study was conducted to predict the resilience of individuals based on emotional distress tolerance and cognitive emotion regulation. Method: This study was a descriptive-correlational study. The study sample consisted of 397 participants who joined online sessions. Conner-Davidson Resilience Scale (2003), Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (2001), and distress Tolerance Scale (2005) were used to collect data. Pearson correlation coefficient and regression analysis were used to analyze the data. Results: The results of regression analysis showed that five variables (positive refocusing, rumination, refocusing on planning, commenting, and blaming) together could predict 0.449% of the variance of resilience (R2 = 0.449). Also, from the 4 sub-components of the distress Tolerance Scale, three components of mental distress estimation, adjusting efforts to relieve anxiety, and being absorbed by negative emotions together were able to predict 0.531% of the resilience variable. Conclusion: Adopting adaptive strategies for emotion regulation and coping skills of emotional distress and reducing maladaptive strategies for emotion regulation is a very important factor in establishing educational programs and psychological interventions. Therefore, the implementation of electronic and virtual workshops is useful.
