A Study of Emotional Intelligence with Well Being and Resilience
2021
A century ago, the concept of Intelligence was quite prevalent, but the idea of emotional intelligence (EI) was utterly foreign to people. The concept of intelligence does not have similar definition for all the people. It was measured by inspection of reasoning, abstract concepts, problem-solving, etc. However, there was no significance given to feelings or emotions while assessing intelligence, and it was not thought to be part of the equation. Over time, the society realized that emotions play a significant role in the people’s lives, and thus emotional intelligence emerged as a critical concept for researchers. It has been linked with different spheres and is said to greatly affect the quality of life. It also directly impacts the way people handle crises. There has to be a relation between these aspects. The current study was conducted to measure emotional intelligence and its relationship with psychological well-being and resilience. The data were collected from 101 people of 20-30 years of age. The standardized scales were used for this purpose. The results obtained indicated a positive correlation among all the variables. Emotional intelligence is the key concept that has a directly proportional relation with well being and resilience, and needs to be given more attention as compared to other types of intelligence.
