This study examines the simultaneous effect of social support and religiosity on the psychological well-being of teachers at SD Plus Jabal Rahmah Mulia Medan. The research employed a correlational quantitative design and involved 114 teachers as both the population and sample using a total sampling technique. Data were collected through three validated and reliable Likert-scale instruments, namely a Social Support Scale based on Sarafino and Smith’s theory, a Religiosity Scale based on Glock and Stark’s model, and a Psychological Well-Being Scale based on Ryff’s framework. Multiple linear regression was applied after classical assumption tests confirmed that the data met normality, linearity, heteroscedasticity, and multicollinearity requirements. The results revealed that social support and religiosity jointly exert a significant influence on teachers’ psychological well-being, indicated by a strong correlation value (R = 0.787), a coefficient of determination (R Square = 0.620), and a significance level of 0.000 (p < 0.05). These findings suggest that 62% of the variation in psychological well-being can be explained by the combined contribution of external resources in the form of social support and internal resources in the form of religiosity, while the remaining 38% is influenced by other factors not investigated in this study. Overall, teachers’ psychological well-being in this Islamic primary school setting was found to be generally high, reflecting positive self-acceptance, supportive interpersonal relationships, autonomy, environmental mastery, purpose in life, and continuous personal growth. The study highlights the importance of strengthening both social support networks and spiritual-religious values as strategic resources for promoting teachers’ mental resilience and sustaining a healthy educational environment.
