Abstract
Mental health is one of the most important aspects of human health, and today, evaluating its factors in student-teachers is a vital necessity.

The statistical population includes all the student-teachers who were studying at Farhangian University of Kurdistan in 2022-2023, of which 400 were selected by stratified random sampling method. Data collection tools included a Multidimensional Index of Perceived Social Support, Cognitive-Emotional Regulation Questionnaire, Academic Resilience Questionnaire, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and short form of Mental Health Questionnaire. Data analysis was performed by structural equation modeling through Spss-21 and Amos-21 software. The results showed that the variables of cognitive-emotional Regulation, social support, academic resilience and sleep quality had a direct and significant effect (P>0.01) on mental health in student-teachers. Also, cognitive-emotional regulation, social support and academic resilience through sleep quality had an indirect and significant effect on mental health (P>0.01).
