Introduction: Academic sustainability and well-being influence students’ academic success. This study examines the relationship between mental health, persistence, and academic well-being, considering the mediating role of transformational capital.Methods: This applied research adopts a descriptive-correlational approach. Information was collected through library and field methods. The statistical population included first-year male and female secondary school students in Kerman, with 300 students selected from six schools in a multi-stage cluster. The data collection tools included the Transformational Capital Questionnaire, the Academic Well-being Questionnaire by Tominen-Swini et al., and the Academic Sustainability Scale. Data analysis was performed using AMOS and SPSS version 23 software path analysis.Results: The results indicated that transformational capital, as a mediating variable, affects the relationship between mental health, sustainability, and academic well-being. A relationship between academic sustainability and academic well-being is mediated by transformational capital. The model analysis showed that the indirect effect of academic sustainability on academic well-being through transformational capital was 0.35, indicating a relationship between academic sustainability and academic well-being mediated by students’ transformational capital.Conclusion: Students with higher developmental capital (social, cultural, and family) exhibit cohesion and integrity and experience academic satisfaction. The external-textual dimension of transformational capital, which is the positive experiences individuals receive daily from relationships with people and the social system, can influence their well-being and academic sustainability. |
