The present study was conducted to derive the psychometric properties of the Bahraini version of the Practical Intelligence Test (PIT), which is a part of the applied intelligence test developed by Sternberg et al. (2008). This test is based on Sternberg's theory of triarchic intelligence. The scale consisted of twenty multiple-choice items, and after each situation, three options are presented that represent different ways to address the problem according to the concept of practical intelligence. The first option is an adaptation (you will try to adapt to the environment). The second option represents changing the environment. The third option is to look for another environment (you decide to leave the environment completely). The population of the study consisted of undergraduate students in public and private universities in the Kingdom of Bahrain enrolled in the 2019/2018 academic year. One of the six universities has been selected. A stratified sample of 300 undergraduate students was distributed by sex and grade level. The results revealed that: (a) practical Intelligence is uni-dimensional, (2) the PIT has high levels of validity and reliability, and (3) the practical intelligence performance varies according to gender and in favour of males.

Purpose: The concept of inclusive education is moved from the homogeneous perspective to heterogeneous perspective in developed countries and even in developing countries, the discourses on inclusive education are argued from the diversity perspective. Many scholars (Florian, 2010; Slee, 2010; Meijer, 2003 and; Allan, 2011) who are researching on inclusive education debated and discussed that successful practice of inclusive education depends greatly on teacher competencies, albeit practicing inclusive education depends on many critical factors like attitudes, curriculum, resources, parental involvement, multidisciplinary orientation etc., Projects like ‘Teacher Education for Inclusion (2009-2012)’ discussed and framed various models of teacher competencies required for the successful practice of inclusive education. In this conceptual paper, the authors reviewed the dimensions /sub scales of emotional intelligence and deliberated its significance associated with teacher competencies that support them to practice inclusive education.Approach: Even though there are various emotional intelligence models, the authors have chosen the Bar-On Model of Emotional Intelligence (2006) considering its wider usage across the country. Further, the author included the conceptual papers/research works accessible via open source for the review.Significance: The present review makes the reader to understand and rationalize the significance of emotional intelligence for teachers (both pre and in-service) to develop their competencies for practicing inclusive education. On one hand, this review justifies the readers that emotional intelligence is related significantly and positively to increased adapted behaviour, higher quality social relationships, longer retention in one’s professional life, better coping strategies and leadership skills that enhances individuals’ intra and inter personal skills. On the other hand, the paper will deduce that the emotional intelligence in teachers will benefit them to meet the needs of diverse students in their classroom without any doubt.Originality Value: The present review is a part of an ICSSR Major Research Project sponsored during the academic year 2017-18.
