Abstract :
The purpose of this study was to predict difficulties in emotional regulation with emphasis on social intelligence in girl students with homesickness. In this descriptive-correlational study, 270 students were selected randomly from among the junior students of the Malayer National University who were studying in the academic year of 2023-2024. Students responded to the Homesickness Questionnaire randomly out of whom 140 were diagnosed with homesickness. The research instrument consisted of Emotional Regulation Difficulty Questionnaire, Tromso Social Intelligence Questionnaire and Homesickness Questionnaire. For data analysis, descriptive and statistic indicators, Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, Pearson correlation coefficient and regression analysis were used. The results of Pearson correlation showed a significant relationship between emotional intelligence components such as emotional data processing and non-acceptance of emotional response (p<0.05.) There was also a significant relationship between social skills and engagement in goal-oriented behavior (p<0.05.) In general, the components of social intelligence were able to predict and affect difficulties in emotional regulation. According to the findings, it can be concluded that social intelligence and its components play a role in emotional regulation. As a result, emotional regulation can be an important factor in adapting individuals to stressors and in preventing subsequent complications.
