Purpose: The purpose of this research was to construct and validate the wisdom test based on Iranian components. Method: In this research, a mixed (qualitative-quantitative) method of exploration plan was used. In the first stage (qualitative), a semi-structured interview was carried out with 20 faculty members of Hamadan University of the Humanities (a qualitative research method of phenomenological type). Sampling method was purposeful and based on theoretical saturation. The content analysis method was used to analyze the interview data. In the second stage (quantitative), based on the coding and compilation of the content of the information obtained from the interviews, a questionnaire of 40 questions was formulated. Then, based on multi-stage cluster sampling, 400 people (281 women and 119 men) participated in the study. At this stage, a confirmatory factor analysis method was used to analyze the data (Bartlett and KMO tests and gravel charts). In order to investigate the validity of construct wisdom test, the internal correlation coefficient of the questionnaire and the correlation coefficient of this test with the Ardelt test, were used for content validity of the crest test using Cronbach's alpha coefficient and two-way semi-test and for the reliability of the test, test-retest method was used. Results: The results of content analysis in the first stage (qualitative) showed that wisdom has four components: 1- cognitive component 2- emotional component 3- component of "flexibility and openness to experience" 4- component "Self-transcendence / targeting and searching for meaning." Also, the results of factor analysis (stage II) showed four factors; the first factor (including questions 2-3-4-5-6-8-10-14-15-20-21-32-40) entitled " Emotional dimension ", the second factor (including questions 1-7-9-12-13-16-17-19-22-23-24-25-29-30) entitled" Cognitive dimension ", the third factor (including questions 26 -27-28-35-36-38) as "Dimensional Flexibility" and the fourth factor (including questions 11-18-31-33-34-37-39) entitled "After Self-Processing".
