This study aimed to investigate the relationship between emotional intelligence and psychological well-being among college students. The study had a sample size of 103 students, and data was collected using the Emotional Intelligence Test by Ekta and the Ryff Scale of Psychological Well-Being. Two hypotheses were formulated: (1) college students with high emotional intelligence would have higher levels of psychological well-being compared to those with low emotional intelligence, and (2) college students with low emotional intelligence are more likely to experience psychological distress compared to those with high emotional intelligence. Two objectives were also set out: (3) to assess a significant positive correlation between emotional intelligence and psychological well-being among college students, and (4) to assess the correlation between emotional intelligence and psychological well-being among college students. The results showed that the mean score for emotional intelligence was 202.85 with a standard deviation of 14.04, while the mean score for psychological well-being was 154.01 with a standard deviation of 24.95. The Pearson correlation coefficient showed a non-significant positive correlation between emotional intelligence and psychological well-being (r = 0.021, p > .05). Therefore, the hypotheses were not supported. The findings suggest that while emotional intelligence and psychological well-being are important constructs, they may not necessarily be strongly associated with each other among college students. Further research is needed to explore the complex interplay between emotional intelligence and psychological well-being.
