Results: The results were supported the fitness of the proposed model after controlling the overlap between two variables. The results of structural equation analysis and regression indicated that there are significance coefficients of direct path in the final model. Also According to the first path, the mediaing role of the cognitive flexibility was identified in the relationship between psychological capital and forgiveness with distress tolerance in couples. But in the second path, it was found that the stress perception variable had a modulating role in the positive effect of forgiveness and psychological capital on distress tolerance.
