Data were analyzed using spss-17 software through descriptive (mean and standard deviation) and inferential statistics (independent t test, Pearson correlation, Kolmogorov-Smirnof and enter sample liner regression).Results: The results showed that there was a significant relationship between SOCIAL SUPPORT and LIFE SATISFACTION in elderly NURSING HOME residents (P=0.035), However, significant differences was not found in SOCIAL SUPPORT (P=0.082) and LIFE SATISFACTION (P=0.061) between elderly men and women. Regression analysis indicated that SOCIAL SUPPORT has a liner relationship with LIFE SATISFACTION, and can predict its changes.Conclusions Based on mentioned results, receiving SOCIAL SUPPORT from family, friends and acquaintances, can contribute to a greater LIFE SATISFACTION in the elderly living in NURSING HOMEs.
