The aim of this study is to investigate the relationships between emotional intelligence, authenticity, and self-disgust levels of university students. A total of 555 students, 440 females and 115 males, from different universities in Turkey in the year 2022 were part of the study. The research model of this study is a type of quantitative research called the relational survey model. Demographic Information Form, Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire–Short Form, Self-Disgust Scale-Revised, and Authenticity Scale were used in the study for data collection. The results of the research state that the subscales of emotional intelligence (well-being, self-discipline, emotionality, and sociability) were significant predictors of authenticity. The subscales of emotional intelligence, including well-being, self-discipline, emotionality, and sociability together explained 53% of the variance in authenticity scores. The results also indicate that the subscales of emotional intelligence and gender were significant predictors of self-disgust. The subscales of emotional intelligence, including well-being, self-discipline, emotionality, sociability, and gender together explained 43% of the variance in self-disgust scores. According to the results obtained, emotional intelligence seems to be effective in increasing authenticity and decreasing self-disgust. For this reason, it is recommended to give importance to increasing emotional intelligence skills in terms of psychological health.
