Introduction: The emotional divorce is the most important factor in the family's frustration and causes the emotional gap of the family. The purpose of this study was to determine the correlation between differentiation and neuroticism with emotional divorce in married students of Azad Shahr city in 1396. Methods: In this descriptive-correlational study, 278 students were selected by sampling method. Data collected using the “Skowron & Friedlander Differentiation of Self Inventor”, the NEO Five-Factor Personality Inventory, and the “Gottman Emotional Divorce Questionnaire”, which the validity and reliability were confirmed in previous studies. After collecting the questionnaires, data were analyzed using SPSS.19. Results: The mean scores of self-differentiation, neuroticism and emotional divorce were 105±10.76, 16.24±1.25 and 8. 58±5.21, respectively. Also, the results of the correlation test showed that there was a negative correlation between self-differentiation and emotional divorce. Among the different dimensions of self-differentiation, the correlation between the three variables: "emotional response", "emotional fault" and "blending with others" was positive with emotional divorce. In addition, the correlation between "position of personal position" and emotional divorce was negative. Finally, it was also found that there was a positive and significant correlation between neuroticism and emotional divorce. Conclusions: By increasing self-differentiation and reducing neuroticism, the amount of emotional divorce in couples decreases. The average of the score obtained in emotional divorce is the signs of emotional divorce among respondents. It is suggested that training courses be conducted on the psycho-destructive effects of neuroticism and its consequences for students.
