Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed on 200 students of Neishabour University of Medical Sciences by convenience sampling method. Data were analyzed using SPSS software version 19 and inferential statistics (MannWhitney, Kruskal-Wallis, Pe arson-Spearman correlation and linear regression). Results: In this study, the mean (± standard deviation) of academic stress was 137.5 (23.7) and emotional intelligence was 98.8 (13.1.). The results showed that the components of emotio nal intelligence including self-management (p <0.001), relationship management (p <0.001) and self-awareness (p = 0.01) were significantly predictors of coping skills in academic stress in students of Neishabour University of Medical Sciences and They were able to predict 27.1% of academic stress. Conclusion: Based on the results, an emotional intelligence component could be used as a suitable method to predict academic stress coping skills. Furthermore, given that the components of self-management, relationship management, and self-awareness have the greatest impact on predicting academic stress, there is a need to pay more attention to these issues in educational programs.
