The aim of the present study was the modeling of psychological well-being based on mindfulness mediated by flow in female students. This research was descriptive correlational using a structural equation modeling method. The statistical population in the present study included all female students of the third grade of the second school in Qom, in the academic year of 2023-2024. The statistical sample size was determined to be 200 people, which was done by random cluster sampling. The questionnaires were Five-Factor Mind Fulness of Questionnaire (FFMQ, Bauer et al., 2006), Flow State Scale (FSS, Jackson & Eklund, 2002 ) and Psychological Well-Being questionnaire (PWB, Ryff, 1989). For analyzing data we used the analysis of structural. The results of data analysis showed that the model has a good fit and there is a significant correlation and flow state has a direct and significant effect on psychological well-being (P<0.01), But mindfulness had no direct effect on psychological well-being (P>0.05). Also, mindfulness through the mediation of the flow state has an indirect and significant effect on psychological well-being (P<0.01). In general, it can be concluded that flow is one of the underlying mechanisms of the relationship between mindfulness and psychological well-being in students; Based on this, it is suggested to implement educational and therapeutic programs focused on mindfulness and flow to improve the psychological well-being of students.
