Abstract :
Students have different abilities in learning the taught lessons, some are prone to learning and some lack the necessary talent to learn. The aim of the current research is to compare spiritual intelligence with academic progress of primary school students in Yasouj city. The population under study is 397 students (205 girls and 192 boys) of primary school in Yasouj city, who were randomly selected and their IQ was measured using Raven's test. The criterion of their academic progress was the average scores of the first, second, and third months, after removing discipline and sports scores. The obtained results show that the students' IQ had a positive and significant effect on their academic progress, and factors such as parents' education and occupation also had a statistically significant relationship with academic progress and intelligence.
