    Dissertation abstract (including summary, objectives, implementation methods and results obtained):

    This research was conducted with the aim of predicting students' academic motivation based on spiritual intelligence and mother's marital satisfaction. The statistical sample is 200 people. The sampling method in this research is multi-stage cluster random sampling.  3 The questionnaires of this research include: Wallerand's academic motivation questionnaire for students and Abdulzadeh's spiritual intelligence and Enrich's marital satisfaction questionnaires for mothers. Descriptive statistics (including: frequency, mean, variance and graphs) and inferential statistics (including: Pearson's correlation coefficient and stepwise regression) were used to analyze the data. The results of the research showed that there is a direct and significant relationship between students' internal motivation scores and mothers' spiritual intelligence. Also, there is an inverse and significant relationship between students' academic demotivation and mothers' spiritual intelligence, but no significant relationship was observed between students' external motivation and mothers' spiritual intelligence. On the other hand, the results show that there is a direct and significant relationship between students' intrinsic motivation and extrinsic motivation scores with mothers' marital satisfaction. Also, as the mothers' marital satisfaction scores increase, students' academic demotivation scores decrease. Keywords: academic motivation, spiritual intelligence, marital satisfaction. Introduction: Motivation makes the student ready to receive stimuli or Special stimuli. Several factors such as: change, repetition, intensity and novelty have a great effect on gaining accuracy. But what focuses the student's attention on a specific matter for a certain period of time is motivation and interest. In terms of education, motivation and desire form the starting point of activities. In order for a student to pay attention to a particular position, he must be interested in it. The good relationship between the curriculum and the basic needs of the students also makes them satisfied with the curriculum (Spalding [1], 2014, p. 33).

    In the present era, education and education in general form an important part of a person's life, in addition to this, the quality and quantity of this education also plays an important role in the future of the person. For nearly a century, psychologists have been widely trying to identify factors predicting educational progress (Narimani, Soleimani, 2013).

    Students' academic motivation is composed of complex and dynamic beliefs and beliefs that arise during the course of education and makes the student achieve a stable and comprehensive view of abilities and competencies in the field of school learning and the family concept itself. It is a part of the self-concept of education that shows the quality of the student's relationship with the parents and determines to what extent the children are satisfied and enjoy living with their parents. In other words, the family as a social unit has the most and deepest human relationships. In addition to being the primary source of basic needs of a person, it provides many opportunities for learning and forming attitudes and beliefs. Along with the educational responsibility of the children, the family plays a very effective role in meeting the physical and psychological needs and transmitting social values. In the context of the family, a person learns the demands of the society and this knowledge leads him to choose certain behaviors (Moslehi, 2012). Unfortunately, it must be admitted that the root and foundation of many children's problems, including: academic failure and students' lack of motivation to study, originate from within families. There are many students who do not have the necessary and sufficient motivation to study and learn, and on top of all the reasons that have made them unmotivated towards education, lessons and books, are the wrong attitudes and beliefs that they sometimes learned in the family environment. Some wrong behaviors and ignorance of parents have destroyed motivation, this most important and main factor in academic progress in children. When families neglect their supervisory role in children's educational activities..  when wrong attitudes and beliefs about education and science are formed in the minds of children; When families' support for children in different periods of education is weak or lost; When family environments have sometimes turned into cold and soulless environments, and sometimes parents are unaware of their children's academic status, and the relationship between parents and children has reached the minimum possible due to several reasons, such as full-time employment of parents outside the home, what else can we expect that the wheel of children's academic success will move correctly and in a positive direction. It is obvious that the mother's personality traits, including her spiritual intelligence and her satisfaction with her married life with her husband, can make a significant contribution to strengthening the health of the family system and promise that in such a family, children will turn to studies and academic progress with hope and peace of mind. Considering that the family and its governing structure play a significant role in the formation of motivation from the beginning of life; This research intends to predict the academic motivation of students based on spiritual intelligence and marital satisfaction of the mother. 1-2-Statement of the problem Being unmotivated towards education, apart from academic failure and waste of material resources, leads to disappointment and discouragement of students and provides the basis for creating mental problems and social deviations (Amiri Rad, 2018). The basic question that teachers and parents want to be answered by researchers and education experts is how to motivate students academically? Motivation [2] is one of the most important factors affecting learning and educational progress (Kausian et al., 2014, p. 85).

    Motivation is a term that is often used synonymously with motivation. However, motivation can be defined more precisely than motivation as a specific state that causes a certain behavior. In other words, motivation is considered the general factor that generates behavior, while motivation is considered the specific cause of a specific behavior (Seif, 2017). Motivation and interest play a major role in students' learning process. Motivation is the desire to do something; It is a state that creates a desire to perform a specific action in a person (Hashmi et al., 2019).      

    Rush [3] (1994), considered motivation as the best highway of learning, which means that the more motivated a student is to learn and study, the more activity, suffering and effort he will endure to reach the final goal (Dairipour, 2011). When there is a failure in the educational system, motivation is often criticized; If Central Australian aboriginal children or disadvantaged black American children fail to do well in school, many of their teachers point the finger at their motivation and blame their family background. The family is the smallest social unit that is formed by the marriage of a man and a woman and evolves with the birth of children. The importance of family life is far more important for children than for adults. Because it is here that the child learns his first experiences in living with others. It is in the family environment that the foundation of the child's growth and future activities is laid. Whether our relationships with others are governed by love and affection or hostility and hatred depends to a great extent on family upbringing.  Basically, all behaviors of adolescence, youth and above, whether they are social or anti-social, are the result of past experiences, and it is with regard to these experiences that these states and behaviors can be justified. Although delinquency in children and adolescents can be attributed to many factors, including cultural, social, economic problems. be dependent; But in the first step, it is the family that guides the child to the right path or prepares the bed for sin, crime and deviance. Due to his social nature, man is influenced by the thoughts, beliefs, and behavior of the people around him from birth, and later, by imitating these behaviors and speeches, he will set models that are related to him in some way as his behavioral role models. The main ingredients of the balanced and dynamic or unstable and vulnerable personality of children and adolescents are formed in the center of the family and in the shadow of favorable interaction with parents, especially the mother. Many variables affect students' academic motivation; One can mention the spiritual intelligence of the mother. Spiritual intelligence is able to facilitate or increase awareness or a sense of connection with a higher power or a sacred being (Sisk and Torrance [4], 2001).
