This process completed in three phases. Phase-I comprised of forward backward translations and then its linguistic equivalence was estimated with English version of OCQ-R on a group of bilingual respondents (N = 45). In Phase-II, reliability estimation of OCQRV including alpha coefficient index, split half, exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis was calculated on a sample of 360 respondents (165 men, 195 women) with age range between 25-40 years. Further, OCQ-R test re-test reliability was checked with one-week interval over 42 respondents. All indexes were calculated were found to be significant. In Phase III, OCQ-R validity estimation was established over sample of 310 participants using Urdu version of Job Satisfaction Survey (Spector, 1985), Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (Rosenberg, 1965) and Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire-Short Form (Petrides & Furnhm, 2006) along with OCQ-R.

Background/aims Emotional intelligence enables recognition, understanding and management of emotions of self and others, supporting development of communication, relationship building and engagement skills. The application of emotional intelligence supports technical and non-technical competence, facilitating confidence, leadership and capability in the workplace. This study profiles trait emotional intelligence in a sample of UK occupational therapists and explores its relationships with a range of demographic and self-rated job satisfaction variables. Methods A UK-wide online survey of occupational therapists was carried out, which included the Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire (Short Form). A total of 808 participants responded. Three main analyses investigated differences between the occupational sample and wider population, the subgroups (gender and work role), as well as the relationships between emotional intelligence and demographic and job satisfaction variables. Results Analyses highlighted that occupational therapists scored higher than the population norms for global emotional intelligence and on each of the four subfactors. Within the study sample, a significant gender difference was observed for emotionality (lower among men); self-control was significantly correlated with age and years since qualification. Increased satisfaction in the job scores were consistently and strongly associated with emotional intelligence scores. Salary band was positively associated with emotional intelligence. Conclusions: The findings consider the potential impact of emotional intelligence levels on performance and leadership, vital in today's climate of emerging practice and less traditional roles for occupational therapists. This study has shown that occupational therapists scored higher than the population norms for Global emotional intelligence and on each of the four emotional intelligence subfactors. Emotional intelligence abilities are associated with perceived competence of the occupational therapist, with implications for job satisfaction and wellbeing. Understanding and using the emotions of self and others to inform thinking and behaviour undoubtedly influences practitioner effectiveness. Future research is required to extrapolate the influence of Trait Emotional Intelligence upon professional abilities, increasing understanding of emotional intelligence and its impact upon effective occupational therapy practice.

This research study was conducted to observe the association among the faculty members of the universities of Islamabad and Rawalpindi, their emotional intelligence, job satisfaction and organizational commitment. In the educational settings, the role of emotional intelligence is the most discussed and researched extensively in the realm of organizational behavior. Researchers have also argued the importance of emotional intelligence in academics. Moreover, little empirical research has been carried out to test the relationship among emotional intelligence, job satisfaction and organizational commitment, specifically the teachers of the universities of Pakistan. This study aimed not merely to ascertain empirical evidence to observe the relationship among EI, JS and OC in academics context, but also to recognize its theoretical and useful implications in the context of universities of Pakistan. The results of this study revealed that the correlation exists among job satisfaction, emotional intelligence and the components of organizational commitment: affective commitment, normative commitment and continuous commitment. Hierarchical regression analysis was applied to test the hypothesis, results indicated that job satisfaction positively predicts affective commitment, normative commitment and continuous commitment but emotional intelligence does not predicts affective commitment, normative commitment and continuous commitment. This study concluded that academic managers should make their teachers well satisfied and faithful to their organizations by defining their roles, clear organizational policies and procedures, finest provision of intrinsic and extrinsic incentives and creating sense of empowerment to their faculty members.
