The present investigation is to explore the emotional intelligence of different blood groups (A+, AB+, B+, and O+). Sample of the study consisted of college students of different blood groups (50 A+, 50 B+, 50 AB+, 50 O+). Their age range between 17-25 years. Their education was above 12th standards. To assess emotional intelligence ‘Emotional Intelligence Scale (EIS)’ by Anukool Hyde, Sanjyot Pethe, and Upinder Dhar was used. To test the hypothesis of the present investigation ANOVA was used. Finding of ANOVA reveals that there is significant difference among blood groups and emotional intelligence. Students who have B+ blood group scored higher on value orientation and who have AB+ blood group scored higher on empathy and emotional stability.

Total samples of 60 were collected out of which 15 boys and 15 girls were engineering students and the remaining 15 boys and 15 girls were dental students. They were collected using simple random method from different departments of engineering of Amity University Rajasthan (AUR) and Jaipur dental college to compare self compassion & emotional intelligence between Engineering and Dental college students using emotional intelligence scale and self compassion scale. The result found no difference in self compassion of Engineering and Dental students but there is difference in traits of emotional intelligence of boys of Engineering and Dental student.

Emotional Intelligence (EI) is considered as a successful predictor of academic achievement. Researchers have claimed that EI predicts success in schools/colleges/universities. The present study is an attempt in this direction. Three hundred Post-graduate girl Psychology students, studying at Indian Institute of Psychological Research, Bangalore, constituted as a sample for the present study. The students were administered with Emotional Intelligence Scale to measure their EI. EI score were compared with final semester examination marks. EI in its five domains such as Self-recognition, Self-regulation, Self-motivation, Empathy and Handling relations was positively associated with academic achievement. Over all EI score showed that 23% of the students were emotionally intelligent and excellent on academic achievement. Students, who were high on EI, were academically excellent. Results clearly indicated that there is a significant difference (P > 0.0001) existing between the EI and academic achievement among college students. EI played a major role in promoting academic achievement among college students. Also, the study has brought out the fact that the emotional well being could be emphasized on academic achievement

Background: We aimed to verify the association between blood group systems and prognosis of SARS-Cov-2 disease. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 329 patients infected with SARS-Cov-2 diagnosed based on their COVID-19 RT-PCR results and chest CT scans, were enrolled in the study. These patients were admitted to Kamkar Arab Nia Hospital, Qom, Iran from March to June 2020. Their blood groups and RH were determined, and demographic characteristics and clinical signs of patients were recorded. The patients’ temperature and peripheral capillary oxygen saturation levels (SpO2) were measured. Finally, the duration of hospitalization, intubation, and death rate were also analyzed. Results: The results of the patients' blood group analysis were as follows: 129(39.2%) patients had A type, 66(20.1%) B type, 21(6.4%) AB type, and 113(34.3%) O type. Of 329 patients, 297 (90.3%) had Rh antigen. The dead cases were higher in O blood type at 13 cases (11.5%). Considering the positive and negative rhesus antigen, 31 (10.4%) and 1 (3.1%) were dead respectively, but the difference was not statically significant. As for the A group, the mean of admission duration (8.4±6.1 days) was not significantly different from the B group (8.8 ±7.2 days). AB group with a mean (7.4 ±4.4 days) was not significantly different from the O group (7.8 ± 5.4 days). There was no significant difference in the duration of hospitalization in RH patients, positive or negative. B blood group showed a significant association with the time interval to return to normal oxygen levels. Conclusion: Blood type was not associated with COVID-19 death rate, nor was it associated with admission duration. B blood group showed a significant association with the time interval to return to normal oxygen levels.

The present paper seeks to investigate the Machiavellianism in relation with Emotional Intelligence among Adolescents. It was hypothesized that Machiavellianism and Emotional Intelligence would be negatively correlated and Emotional Intelligence would be a significant contributor in predicting variance in Machiavellianism. In order to test the hypothesis 240 adolescents (120 females and 120 males) in the age range of 13 to 18 years were selected through random sampling. The measures used were Machiavellianism Scale (Mach IV Scale) and Modified Schutte Emotional Intelligence Scale (Schutte 1998). The correlation coefficient and regression analysis were used to assess the data. The results revealed significant and negative relationship between Machiavellianism and Emotional Intelligence .Emotional Intelligence emerged as a significant predictor of Machiavellianism. Thus, considering the possibility that individuals might have a dispositional tendency to emotionally manipulative behaviour immediately brings to mind the trait of Machiavellianism.

This study is aimed at (i) studying teacher effectiveness in relation to emotional intelligence and (ii) studying the correlation of teacher effectiveness and emotional intelligence. To achieve the purpose, Teacher Effectiveness Scale by Kulsum (2000) and Emotional Intelligence Scale by Hyde, Pethe and Dhar (2001) were employed. A sample of 200 secondary school teachers was selected on the basis of random sampling technique. Descriptive statistics were used to analyse the data. The t-value was applied. Results indicate a significant difference between teacher effectiveness among male and female & Govt. and Private secondary school teachers. Findings on the basis of one way analysis of variance reveal that the group of secondary school teachers with high emotional intelligence is more effective than the group of teachers with average or low emotional intelligence. There exists positive and significant relationship between teacher effectiveness and emotional intelligence among secondary school teachers.

Objective: COVID-19 has been detected in Turkey since March 11, 2020. Istanbul has become an important center of the pandemic in Turkey. Various risk factors for COVID-19 infection, mortality, and morbidity are under investigation. Recent studies have suggested that certain blood groups are risk factors for the disease. The aim of this study is the evaluation the relationship between blood groups and the risk of contracting COVID-19 disease, clinical severity of the disease, and CT (computed tomography) imaging findings. Material and Methods: Age, gender, blood group data, clinical severity and CT images of 300 patients who were positive with RT PCR (Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction) and were followed up in the clinic were retrospectively scanned and recorded. The clinical severity of the disease and CT imaging findings were scored, and the data were evaluated statistically. Results: While the incidence of COVID-19 was high in the A blood group, it was low in the 0 blood group. Although there was no significant difference between blood types and clinical severity, the involvement in the B blood group was more severe on CT imaging. Conclusion: People with A blood group should pay more attention to protection and isolation. Investigating this difference and underlying pathogenic mechanisms can guide science with advanced studies.
