  The purpose of the present study was to investigate the relationship between emotions' control, distress tolerance and harmful use of cell phones among students of Payame Noor University of Tehran. The present study was descriptive- correlation. The statistical population of the study consisted of all graduate students of Payame Noor University of Tehran in 2014-15 academic year. The study sample consisted of 160 subjects selected by available sampling among students of Payame Noor University of East Tehran. Data were collected using harmful use of cell phones' test of Williams et al. (COS), emotions' control test (ECS) and distress tolerance scale of Simmons and Gahr (DTS). In order to test hypotheses, using SPSS software, Pearson correlation and multiple regression analysis were used. Pearson's correlation results showed that emotions' control and its components, as well as distress tolerance had a significant negative relationship with excessive use of mobile phones by students. Also, the results of multiple regression showed that emotions' control and distress tolerance predict excessive use of cell phones among students. According to the findings it can be concluded that emotions' control and distress tolerance played an important role in predicting harmful use of cell phones by students. Therefore, educational authorities' special attention to the student stressors and strengthen positive aspects of their personality is recommended. Manuscript profile
