The study investigated the relationship between Work-life Balance (WLB) and Emotional Intelligence among staff of the University of Ilorin, a conventional public institution in Nigeria. The study adopted the descriptive survey research design. The study population was all staff of the University of Ilorin which was put at 6,000. Using Taro Yamane (1967) formula, a sample size of 375 was selected. The actual participants were picked through stratified and simple random sampling techniques. The research instrument was a structured questionnaire developed from the combination of Hayman (2005)’s WLB Scale and Daniel Goleman (1997)’s EI Dimensions made of 30 items. Three hypotheses were formulated. Two of them were tested with Pearson rho Correlation and the third with Linear Regression Analysis. It was found (i) that work-life balance was significantly related to emotional intelligence [r (373) = 0.483, p<0.01]. (2) that work-life balance is significantly correlated with Self-regulation [r (373) = 0.908, p<0.01] and (3) that Work-Life Balance had a significant influence on Self Awareness. The value of R square shows that 35.9% of the variation in the dependent variable (self-awareness) is explained by the independent variable (work-life balance). The model is highly significant at (F=103.692, p=.000) which shows that it can be used to predict the outcome variable. The value of coefficient (β = 0.599) is significant and positive, showing that work-life balance leads to increase in self-awareness. From the findings and conclusions of the study, it is recommended that for the degree of employees’ emotional intelligence to improve tremendously, organisations must enact adequate Work-Life Balance policies to reduce strains and pressures of workers. Employers should organise periodical capacity building for staff to develop their emotional intelligence; and organisations must ensure that staff take advantage of their (the establishments) life-enriching welfare policies such as opportunities for leave and sponsored holidays.

Background: The university years bring a great deal of vital changes. In addition, psycho-social factors play a key role in university students’ development and their consumption of harmful substances. The aim is to analyse academic performance according to psychosocial factors, self-concept, emotional intelligence and harmful substance consumption in a sample of future Physical Education teachers. Methods: The present study was carried out with a sample of 775 undergraduate students who were studying for the Primary Education Degree in Physical Education in Andalusia, Spain. The main instruments used include an ad hoc questionnaire, the Self-Concept Form-5 test, Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test, Fagerström Test for Nicotine Dependence and the Emotional Intelligence Inventory adapted to Sport. Results: The results show that young people who have a greater general self-concept and self-emotional management are those who access the university degree through Vocational Training. In relation to the average record mark, it was observed that participants with marks of notable and outstanding obtained higher scores in general self-concept, academic dimension and hetero-emotional management. Those with grades of passed and outstanding were those with higher levels in the physical dimension of self-concept and emotional use. In relation to receiving a scholarship to study, it has been shown that those university students who do perceive it have higher levels in most of the dimensions of emotional intelligence and self-concept. Conclusions: Finally, the harmful substances did not show significant relationships with academic factors, except between tobacco and the average mark of the file.
