Studies on financial behavior indicate that emotional intelligence (EI) and personality traits (PTs) explain much of the bias in financial activity. This study aims to identify in which dimensions of theEI and PTs of university students in finance further training is needed to avoid financial behavior bias. To this end, the EI and PT levels of a sample of university finance students and financial industry professionals were compared using the Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire (TEIQue) and Big Five Inventory questionnaire. Subsequently, the dimensions of EI and PTs in which students have a deficit compared to professionals were identified, and the impacts that this deficit causes on the financial behavior of students were determined. The results indicate that students are deficient in the EI competencies related to empathy, emotion regulation, self-motivation, stress management, optimism, and self-esteem. Furthermore, PTs are related to kindness, awareness, openness, and extraversion. This deficit makes students more likely to have financial behavior biases such as risk tolerance, endowment, optimism, self-control, and loss aversion. These findings suggest that universities should be aware of providing financial students with full training in EI and PTs to help them successfully address their professional future.

The Impact

Emotional intelligence (EI) has a significant role in psychological well-being and is affected by parenting styles. There is no evidence about this relationship in countries with the impact of Confucianism and feudalism, in which parents use authoritarian caregiving to foster their children. The aim of the current study was to examine the association between parenting styles and EI among Vietnamese adolescents. This is a cross-sectional school survey using multilevel regression analyses controlling for potential confounders and school cluster effects. The principal data sources were the Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire—Adolescent Short Form, which has been translated into Vietnamese, and the locally validated Parental Bonding Instrument, which assesses three main parenting styles: warmth, overprotectiveness, and authoritarianism. Results from 1,593 students revealed that boys had significantly higher overall EI, Well-Being, and Self-Control subscale scores than girls. The warmth of parents during childhood was associated with higher EI, while overprotectiveness and authoritarianism from mothers were associated with lower EI among adolescents. This study supports the impact of parenting styles on EI. The warmth and care from both mother and father will benefit the emotional development of their children in Vietnam.

The current study presents the results of the adaptation of the Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire (TEIQue; Petrides, 2009 ) to the Georgian population. Nine hundred twenty two individuals participated in the standardization of the instrument (267 male and 655 female participants, from 17 to 70 years). Results from exploratory factor analyses indicate that the factor structure of the British TEIQue is broadly replicated in the Georgian translation. The Georgian Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire comprises 15 primary facets and four higher-order factors: Emotionality, Sociability, Self-Control, and Well-Being. The Cronbach α reliabilities of the TEIQue factors ranged from .69 to .82, and from .62 to .81 for the 15 facets. TEIQue global scores were normally distributed. There were no gender differences in global TEI scores, though such differences did emerge in some TEI factors and facets.

Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire

Abstract Introduction Lack of sleep has been associated with altered connectivity between the emotion-regulating regions of the medial prefrontal cortex and the emotionally reactive structure of the amygdala. This altered brain function following insufficient sleep is believed to impair a range of emotional perception and regulation capacities. Our prior research has also shown that two nights of total sleep deprivation led to significant declines in Trait Emotional Intelligence (TEI) and other aspects of emotional processing and perception. Nonetheless, the extent to which general sleep quality and acute sleep duration may contribute to everyday TEI outside of laboratory conditions remains unknown. We hypothesized that poorer sleep quality and the amount of sleep obtained the night before assessment would both predict TEI scores. Methods 447 adults (18–40 yrs; 72% female) completed the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and a question about the number of hours of sleep obtained the night before the assessment (SLEEP), as well as the Petrides Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire (TEIQue). Sleep metrics were used to predict Total TEI, and the four TEIQue factors (Wellbeing, Self-Control, Emotionality, and Sociability) using multiple linear regression. Results Both PSQI (β=-.275, p<.00001) and SLEEP (β=.130, p<.00001) each contributed uniquely to prediction of Total TEI (R2=.11, p<.00001). Wellbeing was also predicted by a combination of PSQI (β=-.272, p<.00001) and SLEEP (β=.129, p=.006). In contrast, for Self-Control, only PSQI was significantly related (β=-.296, p<.00001). Both PSQI (β=-.131, p<.007) and SLEEP (β=.103, p<.034) each contributed to Emotionality. Finally, both PSQI (β=-.126, p<.010) and SLEEP (β=.107, p<.028) each contributed to Sociability. Conclusion Greater total TEI was uniquely predicted by a linear combination of 1) better general sleep quality over the past month and 2) greater quantity of sleep the night before the assessment session. The same pattern held for all scale factors, except Self-Control, which was only related to sleep quality over the past month. Although limited by the cross-sectional nature of the data, these findings support prior work suggesting that lack of sleep alters normal emotional processing and further suggests that both long-term sleep quality and acute restriction of sleep can affect trait-like emotional domains.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to Standardize and evaluate the psychometric properties of Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire (TEIQue) in the Persian adult population. Method: 551 students completed the Farsi version of this questionnaire, along with the Schutte Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire (SEIS) and the Neo-Five Factor Questionnaire (NEO-FFI). Results: The results of exploratory factor analysis, showed that the Persian version of the Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire consists of four factors: well-being, self-control, emotionality and sociability, which is quite similar to the original study. In order to measure reliability, two methods of internal consistency and split half reliability were used. Cronbachchr('39')s alpha of .95 was calculated for global trait emotional intelligence and ranged from .69 to .90 for factors. In the split half reliability method, the Cronbachchr('39')s alpha test for the first half of the test was .92 and for the second half was .89. The convergent/discriminant validity of this questionnaire was examined using the Schutte Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire and the Neo Five Factor Questionnaire. The results showed that this questionnaire had a positive correlation with most subscales of Schutte Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire and had a negative correlation with the neuroticism subscale of the five-factor questionnaire. In this study, there were gender differences between the scores of women and men, as women had higher scores in global trait emotional intelligence and factors of well-being and emotionality. Conclusion: In general, the findings showed that the Persian version of the TEIQue has an appropriate reliability and validity for measuring this structure in the adult population of Iran.

During the COVID-19 pandemic doctors use their intellectual and personal potential in order to be effective in their work, as they were placed in a situation with special requirements for professional activity, creating an emotionally charged environment. Empathy, emotional intelligence (EI), and emotional stability play an important role. Our objective was to study the relationship between empathy, EI, intuition, attitudes toward uncertainty and personality traits in doctors performing their professional activities during the COVID-19 pandemic. The study involved 122 doctors of different specialties (psychiatrists, pediatricians, surgeons, oncologists, etc.). Six questionnaires were used. The Jefferson Scale of Empathy and confirmatory factor analysis were used to verify the factor structure, where the original three-factor model showed the best fit. To identify the relationships between the variables, the Spearman test was used. In our sample of medical doctors, emotional stability characterizes individuals with high self-control and sociality (TEIQue scales). Our data allows us to highlight that empathy fails to be integrated with traits of emotional intelligence in the personality profiles of medical doctors. But distancing from the sphere of one’s experiences in interpersonal relationships during the COVID pandemic may be a necessary component in the personal regulation of the performance of one’s professional responsibilities.

In today’s scenario, investment is very important in everyone’s life. Investors always prefer the investment avenues according to their suitability, risk and the return because there are different investment avenues available in the market. There are various factors that influence the risk tolerance behaviour of the investors, such as age, gender, marital status, experience, income, household expenditure, present and future savings, future expectations of returns and future planning of the investor. But the risk tolerance is also affected by the personality traits and emotional intelligence (EI) of the investors. Thus, the present study focuses on the relation between the personality traits, EI and risk tolerance of the investors. The data was collected from 500 investors who invest through LSC Securities Ltd (formerly LSE Securities Ltd) in Punjab by using structured questionnaire. Multiple regression test was applied through SPSS to test the significance of relationship among the variables. The study found the relation of risk tolerance with personality traits and EI to be statistically significant.

Abstract. Creative potential realized in creative achievement changes the world and defines progress. Accordingly, the investigation of factors that contribute to the process of achieving creative accomplishments seems essential. The relationship between creativity and personality was a thoroughly studied subject almost from the very beginning of creativity research, yet even today it is still unclear whether emotion-related personality traits – specifically, trait emotional intelligence and emotional creativity – are the driving factors that help individuals with creative potential to gain creative achievements. In this study, 342 participants ( Mage = 21.87, SD = 5.84) took the Alternative Uses and Instances tasks (creative potential); the Inventory of Creative Activities and Achievements (ICAA); the Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire (TEIQue); and the Emotional Creativity Inventory (ECI). Results show that trait emotional intelligence (specifically, the sociability factor) and emotional creativity (namely, the novelty aspect) moderate the relationship between creative potential and creative achievements, while this relationship is mediated by creative activities. The study provides insight into which emotional personality traits can facilitate the path from creative potential to real-life creative achievements.

AbstractAim. The theory of emotional intelligence provides a framework to think about all of the non-technical skills you need in order to be a good nurse. It’s often described as the potential to feel, use, communicate, recognize, remember, describe, identify, learn from, manage, understand, and explain emotions. The aim of the study was to determine the level of total global Emotional Intelligence among undergraduate students of nursing and also to check the influence of factors (the year of study, type of completed high school education) on Emotional Intelligence.Methods. The study involved together 86 university students of nursing (average age 21.7±1.4; 96.5% females). We used the standardized questionnaire Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire – Short Form (TEIQue-SF).Results. The results show a higher level scores achieved by nursing students in all areas EI except Self-control compared to a population norm. Students who have completed non-health’s education achieved higher level scores of Emotionality (p ≤ 0.05).Conclusions. EI abilities are essential for the profession of nursing in both educational and clinical practice. Examination of the role of education and the development of EI abilities in student nurses are needed to support this foundation of EI research.

Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire

The 21st century is characterized by unpredictable and changing environments that require individuals and organizations to adapt to these challenges and prepare for continuous transitions in the work environment. Optimism and hope are positive resources that are key factors in navigating this post-modern work scenario. Emotional intelligence can be considered as another important variable in this context and furthermore, research has shown it can be increased through specific training. The aim of the present study is to examine the contribution of emotional intelligence in mediating the relationship between personality traits and both optimism and hope. The Big Five Questionnaire (BFQ), the Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire (TEIQue-SF), the Life Orientation Test Revised (LOT-R), and the Hope Scale (HS) were administered to 201 Italian workers. Correlations among variables were calculated and mediation analyses were performed. The results showed that the relationships between personality traits and both optimism and hope are mediated by emotional intelligence. In particular, the contribution of emotional stability, agreeableness, and extraversion on optimism was mediated by emotional intelligence; the contribution of extraversion, emotional stability, and conscientiousness on hope was mediated by emotional intelligence. These results open new possibilities for research and interventions to enhance the personal resources of workers in the fluid scenario of the 21st century by promoting optimism and hope that are facilitated by emotional intelligence in the perspective of enhancing psychological aspects of sustainability and sustainable development.

Zusammenfassung. In der vorliegenden Studie wurden die Emotionale Intelligenz und das Führungsverhalten von Trainern erhoben. Insgesamt 215 Fußballtrainer bearbeiteten die deutsche Kurzversion des Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire (TEIQue-SF; Freudenthaler, Neubauer, Gabler, Scherl & Rindermann, 2008 ) und die Leadership Scale for Sports (LSS; Würth, Saborowski & Alfermann, 1999 ). Neben der inhaltlichen Auseinandersetzung mit der Emotionalen Intelligenz und dem Führungsverhalten von Trainern werden die eingesetzten Verfahren einer kritischen Prüfung unterzogen. Die Prüfung der Testgüte für die vorliegende Stichprobe zeigt akzeptable interne Konsistenzen für den TEIQue und für zwei Subskalen der LSS (Demokratisches Verhalten und Soziale Unterstützung) Trainer der verschiedenen Lizenzstufen unterscheiden sind in ihrer selbstberichteten Emotionalen Intelligenz nicht voneinander. Für die Gesamtstichprobe werden Zusammenhänge zwischen Emotionaler Intelligenz und allen Subskalen (soziale Unterstützung, fachliche Unterweisung, demokratisches Verhalten und positives Feedback) der LSS gefunden. Die Diskussion nimmt sich der Einschätzung der verwendeten Messverfahren an und hebt die Bedeutung von sportspezifischen Instrumenten hervor.
