In recent years, more attention is paid to the more subtle aspects of school life such as students' well - being. Therefore, knowing personal and social factors related to well - being is necessary. The aim of this research is to study the relation of self- regulation and communal mastery to psychological well - being. The research is correlational and the sample consisted of 300 (130 male, 170 female) students from Shiraz schools were chosen by multistage random cluster sampling. They completed self - regulation (Bouffard et al., 1995) communal mastery (Hobfoll, 2000) and psychological well-being (Ryff, 1989)Questionnaires. For data analysis, Pearson correlations and stepwise regression analysis were used. The results indicated a significant positive relationship between the dimensions of self - regulation (metacognition, cognition & motivation) and communal mastery to psychological well-being. Also, the results showed that metacognition, motivation and communal mastery could explain 26% of psychological well-being variations. In sum, these results showed that teachers must remind students the importance of personal efforts and proper help - seeking.
