There were 49 male and 66 female respondents involved in this study. The Cronbach’s Alpha value was .94 which strongly suggest that the instrument has an excellent reliability. This study points out that self-employment intentions are suitable to be used by college personnel and counselors to examine and identify self-employment intentions among international students in Indonesian higher education.

The world’s economic development has demanded a university to produce more skilful and competitive students. Therefore, the university has played a significant role in designing the best curriculum which is in line with the market need. Fulfilling those demands and needs, students must meet all the requirements stipulated by the curriculum but somehow, some of the students are experiencing stress due to their inability to meet the university's curriculum requirements. Although the students are under pressure they are still able to control it by using humour. Based on a study conducted on 200 university students, the results showed that the level of stress among students was a moderate level with symptoms such as dry mouth and hands shaking. In addition, the findings indicated that academic factor has a strong influence on students’ stress rather than financial and family factors. However, the results also indicated that students are able to control their stress levels based on their own attitude of humour namely; the affiliative humour and the self-enhancing humour.

RESUMENEl interés que nos ha llevado a realizar este trabajo se centra en la gran importancia que ha cobrado la inteligencia emocional en los últimos años y como, según indica Goleman (1996), la unión de la razón y la emoción es fundamental para comprender el desarrollo de la inteligencia humana. Además, diversos estudios muestran la importancia de desarrollar competencias emocionales en el contexto educativo, y más concretamente en los estudiantes universitarios. Mediante una metodología cuantitativa, y más concretamente a partir de un diseño transversal, en nuestro trabajo se pretende evaluar el nivel de inteligencia emocional (atención, claridad y reparación emocional) en una muestra constituida por 358 estudiantes del Grado de Maestro en Educación y Grados en Ciencias de la Universidad de Extremadura mediante el test de autoinforme TMMS-24 de Fernández-Berrocal, Extremera y Ramos (2004). Los resultados obtenidos permitieron afirmar que existen diferencias estadísticamente significativas en el nivel reparación emocional según el sexo, y en todas y cada una de las dimensiones que conforman la inteligencia emocional según el grado en  el que se encuentran matriculados los estudiantes universitarios.Palabras clave: inteligencia emocional, emociones, estudiantes universitarios, maestros en formación inicial, enseñanza de las ciencias.  ABSTRACTThe interest of this work focuses on the great importance of emotional intelligence has gained in recent years and as, according to Goleman (1996), the union of reason and emotion is fundamental to understanding the development of human intelligence.
