The aim of this study was to differentiate students with high and low academic performance based on the components of academic self-regulation and cognitive flexibility. The study type was causal-comparative and its statistical population included all male and female high school students in Khaf city in the academic year 2022-2023, among whom finally 371 individuals were selected by cluster sampling, according to Krejcie and Morgan’s table. Data were collected using Dennis and Vanderwall (2010) Cognitive Flexibility Questionnaire, Sevari and Arabzadeh Academic Self-Regulation Questionnaire (2013), and the first semester GPA of 2022-2023 academic year. Data were analyzed using discriminant analysis. The findings of discriminant analysis led to a significant discriminant function which showed the components of controllability perception, Alternatives perception and organization had the highest differentiation power (p <0.01). The results of the discriminant analysis showed that according to the obtained function, 86.2% of students in the two groups were correctly reclassified which indicates the ability of these components to differentiate students at different levels of academic performance.
