The research statistical population comprised all elderly men over 60 years in nursing home of Neyshabour Welfare Organization. The research sample included 132 of these elderly people who were selected through convenience sampling method. For data collection, Meta-Emotion Scale by Beck, Höfer and Schüßler (2009), Life Expectancy Questionnaire by Schneider at al. (1991) and World Health Organization Quality of Life Questionnaire (1998) were applied. Data were analyzed using structural equations and correlation coefficient. Results: The results of Barron and Kenny regression and structural equation showed the correlation between positive meta-emotion styles and life expectancy with mediation of Life satisfaction. In addition, investigation of another hypothesis showed that the role of quality of life in relation to positive meta-emotion stylesmeta compassion and meta interest was partial. Meanwhile, according to correlation analysis and regression models, the relation among positive meta-emotion styles, life expectancy and quality of life were positive and significant. Conclusion: The results demonstrated that quality of life plays a mediating role in the relationship between positive metaemotion styles and life expectancy in elderly men. Further, a significant and direct relationship was found between the variables of positive metaemotion styles and life expectancy
