Abstract :
Abstract The aim of the present study was to predict emotional distress based on self-concept and social competence in students. From a methodological perspective, the research is applied in nature and descriptive-correlational in terms of its research method. The statistical population included all female students of Islamic Azad University, Karaj Branch, in the fields of Management and Accounting, at associate, bachelor's, and postgraduate levels in the academic year 1403 (2024-2025). From this population, a sample of 200 students was selected using a cluster sampling method. To measure the variables under study, the Emotional Distress Questionnaire by Simons and Gaher, the Beck Self-Concept Inventory, and the Social Competence Questionnaire by Felner and colleagues were used. The findings of the study indicated that the emotional distress coefficient based on self-concept was significant at the alpha level of 0.05, with a positive correlation between emotional distress and self-concept. Additionally, all calculated correlation coefficients between emotional distress and social competence were significant at the alpha level of 0.05, with a negative correlation between them. The results suggest that negative self-concept significantly predicts higher emotional distress, while positive self-concept predicts lower emotional distress. Therefore, the first hypothesis of the research is confirmed. It is also concluded that social competence predicts emotional distress, thereby confirming the second hypothesis. Keywords: Emotional Distress, Self-Concept, Social Competence
