We examined the role of emotional-social intelligence on trust, among couples engaging in long-termed long-distance romantic relationship (6 to 84 months), with meeting intensity between 1-12 times within a year. The results of this correlational study demonstrated that in general, individuals’ emotional intelligence predicted greater trust toward partner. However, the main component of emotional intelligence that predicted trust was not intrapersonal or interpersonal skills, but other emotional-social skills (stress management, adaptation, mood). Discussion was focused on the importance of each component of emotional-social intelligence on trust, among couples engaging in long-termed long-distance relationship.

This study aimed to explore the relationships between attachment styles, proximity, and relational satisfaction. This was achieved by assessing a distinct type of long distance romantic relationship of flying crews, compared with proximal (non-flying crew) romantic relationships. The responses of 139 expatriate professionals revealed significant associations between proximity and anxious and avoidant attachment dimensions. The role of the avoidant dimension in comparison with that of the anxious dimension was found to be a significant predictor of relational satisfaction. This study contributes significantly toward addressing the role of proximity and attachment in relational satisfaction in a new context of geographic separation.

The purpose of this study is to see whether there is a relationship between emotional intelligence and academic achievement. The study respondents were B.Tech first year students from the Agra region. Sampling is stratified, making sure that gender, race, socioeconomic status, and abilities are appropriately represented. The respondents are given Emotional Intelligence Inventory (EII–MM), developed by S. K. Mangal and Shubhra Mangal. It consists of 100 items under four scales .The analysis suggests that there is a significant relationship between Emotional Intelligence and Academic Achievement. IQ alone is no more the measure for success; emotional intelligence, social intelligence, and luck also play a big role in a person's success. This study contributes in acknowledging the fact that even engineering students’ academic achievements are attached with Emotional intelligence. Thus, teaching emotional and social skills only at the school level is not sufficient; this can be taught in engineering studies, as well for accomplishing high academic achievements.

Although they yearn for it, not all families can live together in their daily life. Many factors are causing some families to decide to live a long-distance relationship (LDR). This issue certainly will bring new problems in the provision of stimulation in the development of children’s emotional-social intelligence. Children need stimulation from both parents to get their emotional-social development improved optimally. The introduction of digital literacy at an early age can be one of the creative and effective solutions for a long-distance family relationship to optimize their children’s emotional-social stimulation. There are several things parents need to consider when introducing digital literacy in early childhood, including; 1) agreement from both parents; 2) schedule or time to communicate; 3) child-friendly simple application; 4) communication time limit, and 5) accompaniment for children during communication

In childhood, the perception of body image is in the construction phase and emerges linked to the aesthetic ideals of society, which is well differentiated according to gender. In this way, according to people’s interpretations of the environment and how to manage it emotionally, greater or lesser body satisfaction may be generated, which could have irreversible consequences for children. Therefore, our interest lies in how body image satisfaction and gender can act as modulating variables of emotional intelligence in childhood, analyzing differences in the intrapersonal, interpersonal, stress management, adaptability, and mood dimensions of emotional intelligence, according to the degree of body image satisfaction and the child’s gender. A total of 944 Primary Education students selected by multistage cluster sampling, 548 boys and 396 girls aged between 9 and 12 years from different schools in Extremadura (Spain), participated in the research. The study design was descriptive, and questionnaires to measure emotional intelligence, self-perception, and body image satisfaction were used. An analysis of descriptive statistics, a Chi-square test to measure the variance/invariance of the participants’ distribution according to their satisfaction with body image and gender, and a MANOVA to determine the possible effects of satisfaction with body image as well as of gender on emotional intelligence were conducted. Regardless of gender, children who were satisfied with their body image showed higher interpersonal intelligence, greater adaptability, and better mood. With respect to gender, girls showed higher stress management than boys. Throughout Compulsory Education, it is necessary to promote campaigns imparted by specialists to prevent body image dissatisfaction, so that the benefits can reach the entire educational community (students, teachers, and parents). In this work, several possibilities are described to meet the demands of contemporary society.

Concept emotional intelligence (EI) has roots in discussions that began as early as the late 1930s, when researchers began describing a non-intellective intelligence sometimes described as “social intelligence. In simpler terms, emotional intelligence might be defined as the set of skills people use to read, understand, and react effectively to emotional signals sent by others and oneself. These are skills such as empathy, problem-solving, optimism, and self-awareness which allow people to reflect, react to, and understand various environmental situations. There was strong relationship between the emotional intelligence with the anxiety and the stress. Over the decades there is strong discussion and research going on what happens to the emotional intelligence when there is increased anxiety and academic stress among adolescents. Taking in consideration the above facts, an investigation will be carried out on the “Emotional intelligence among adolescents in relation to their test anxiety and academic stress”. This study was conducted to see the role of the emotional intelligence and its relation with test anxiety and academic stress among adolescents. We seek to test hypothesis that in adolescents at the time of test anxiety and in academic stress, emotional intelligence (EI) decreases. To test our hypothesis, a sample of around 250 adolescents (both boys and girls in equal ratio) in the age range of 18 to 23years with nonclinical history of anxiety and stress was taken from campus of Lovely Professional University located at Phagwara, Jalandhar. The level of emotional was quantified in relation to all variables (test anxiety and academic stress) using emotional intelligence scale by schute et al.scales. Taking in consideration our objective and hypothesis, data collected is analyzed by (one way ANOVA)analysis of variance. After analyzing the data my result showed the significance difference among gender in emotional intelligence as well as in test anxiety.

This study attempts to identify the manifestations of extreme shyness among students, shed light on the effect of counselling interventions in reducing the level of non-positive shyness, and highlight behavioural indicators that may lead to improved social interaction. The study researchers utilised a systematic approach to study a female gifted student with a high level of shyness that prevents her from engaging in normal social interaction. The study participant is a gifted student designated gifted as indicated by the Mawhiba scale in 2019-2020, and she was deliberately chosen for the purpose of this four-week case study. Multiple resources and a special tool for data collection were used to analyse the output and ultimately suggest a package of consultancy solutions for this study. The study reveals that the thorough and extensive consultancy program makes a remarkable impact on the characteristics of the study participant and to the same degree on the family and school. In addition, a number of specific strategies were identified as successful means in attaining reduced self-consciousness while increasing confidence and social interaction skills. From a quantitative perspective, the study utilises Sternberg’s emotional intelligence index and a shyness scale, which led the researchers to better understand the study participant's emotional intelligence and lower her level of shyness and inhibition.

Abstract The way we recognize and manage emotions, empathy, stress management, and the ability to build harmonious relationships, or emotional intelligence, are little explored in the medical field, although they have been shown to play a very important role in recovering patients and increasing the degree of their satisfaction with the accessed medical services. The purpose of the research is to highlight, based on the results of an investigation, whether the emotional intelligence of medical staff influences the quality of the medical services offered and patients’ satisfaction. Towards this end, the authors performed a survey based on the emotional intelligence test developed by Daniel Goleman and presented in his book “Emotional Intelligence”, and modified and adapted by Mihaela Roco. The patients included in the sample answered to a questionnaire related to their satisfaction when they used medical services.
