Emotional intelligence has become especially important in recent decades, due to the impact that socioeconomic demands have on people and that consequently have repercussions on the physical and mental health and family stability of individuals. Students arrive at educational centers loaded with a variety of conflicts that exacerbate their ability to cope, which can affect their academic performance. Faced with this reality, research on emotional intelligence and academic performance was conducted; with the aim of analyzing whether there is a significant relationship between both variables and describing the dimensions of emotional intelligence in university students. This study was conducted using a quantitative approach, with a descriptive-correlational scope, a non-experimental cross-sectional, correlational design and with a convenience sample made up of 71 psychology students from the National Autonomous University of Honduras Valle de Sula, attending the last class of the career. The results show that there is no significant relationship between emotional intelligence and its dimensions (attention to feelings, emotional clarity, repair of emotions) with academic performance.
