The statistical population in the present study included all married men and women with an experience of infidelity, who referred to family counseling centers in Tehran in in fall and winter in 2019, which Among them 215 people were selected by random cluster sampling method. They completed the distress tolerance, psychological capital, and Forgiveness and stress perception questionnaires. Data were analyzed by using SPSS-22 software and analysis of indexes fitness in moment structures (AMOS). 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. Conclusion: Based on these results, it can be concluded that although psychological capital and forgiveness have a positive direct effect on distress tolerance in couples who suffering from marital infidelity.
