Purpose: The purpose of the present study was to investigate the relationship between emotional intelligence, student perfectionism and academic procrastination.Methodology: This study was descriptive-correlational. The statistical population consisted of all male students of elementary school of Rasht region (2218 students) in the academic year 1396-1396. From the statistical population, according to Krejcie and Morgan table, 240 people were selected using cluster sampling. The research tools were Multidimensional Perfectionism Identity and Felt Questionnaire (1991), Shearing Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire (1996) and Solomon & Ruth Bloom Questionnaire (1984). Data were analyzed using Pearson correlation and multivariate regression using spss21 software.Findings: The results showed that there was a relationship between perfectionism (self-restraint and total perfectionism) with procrastination (p <0.01). Also, there was no relationship between emotional intelligence and procrastination (p <0.01).Conclusion: With increasing perfectionism in students, their procrastination increases. Therefore, it is necessary to incorporate emotional intelligence as a skill in their courses.
