The Relationship

(1) Background: Academic engagement has been reported in the literature as an important factor in the academic achievement of university students. Other factors such as emotional intelligence (EI) and resilience have also been related to students’ performance and quality of life. The present study has two clearly delimited and interrelated objectives. First, to study the mediational role that engagement plays in the relationship between EI and resilience on quality of life. Secondly, and similarly, to study the mediational role of engagement in the relationship between EI and resilience, but in this case on academic achievement. (2) Methods: For this purpose, four scales frequently used in the literature to measure emotional intelligence, resilience, academic engagement and quality of life were administered to 427 students of the University of Jaén undertaking education degrees. In addition, students were asked to indicate their current average mark as a measure of academic performance. Two mediational models based on structural equations were proposed to analyse the relationships between the proposed variables. (3) Results: The results obtained showed that emotional intelligence and resilience directly predicted students’ life satisfaction, but this direct relationship did not result in academic performance. In addition, and assuming a finding not found so far, engagement was shown to exert an indirect mediational role for both life satisfaction and academic performance of students. (4) Conclusions: The findings of the study support the importance of engagement in the design and development of instructional processes, as well as in the implementation of any initiative.

The Relationship

This study examines the relationship between self-perceived emotional intelligence (EI) measured by the Emotional Intelligence Scale (EIS) [1] and other personality measures including the five-factor-model. The EI construct has lately been re-defined as the ability to think intelligently about emotions and to use them to enhance intelligent thinking [2]. Two studies provide support that self-reported EI is mainly associated with personality traits (extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, self-perceived creativity), life satisfaction and thinking styles with only a low relation to verbal intelligence. Furthermore, persons higher in the EI dimension “emotional efficacy” produced more creative performances than persons low in this domain. These findings suggest that self-reported EI cannot be considered as a rational form of intelligence so that it does qualify to fit into the framework of personality traits.

Abstract.Emotional intelligence is the ability to perceive, use, understand and regulate emotions to facilitate thought (Mayer and Salovey, 1997). The concept of burnout is the English expression to describe what stopped functioning because of the exhaustion of energy (France, 1987, cited by Carlotto, 2012).This study aimed to understand the perceived emotional intelligence as a protective factor against burnout, as well as studying the relationship between emotional intelligence and burnout. The sample was constituted by 250 teachers in the 2nd cycle (26.4%), 3rd cycle (57.2%) and Secondary school (16.4%), with (70.4%) females and (29.6%), males in the Autonomous Region of Madeira (RAM), Portugal. As instruments, we used a socio-demographic and professional’s questionnaire, the trait metamood scale (TMMS-24), the expressiveness and emotion regulation of Berkeley questionnaire and the Maslach burnout inventory (MBI). In the study did not find evidence that marital status, age, length of service and level of education influences taught emotional intelligence and burnout. Only gender seems to influence emotional intelligence. To confirm the statistical relationship between emotional intelligence and burnout, we used Spearman´s correlation test between variables and it was concluded that the higher the repair of emotions, the less emotional exhaustion and depersonalization and higher the revaluation emotions are higher is the emotional exhaustion.Keywords: Emotional intelligence, burnout, teacher, emotional expressiveness, emotional regulation.Resumo.A inteligência emocional é a capacidade de perceber, usar, conhecer e regular as emoções para facilitar o pensamento (Mayer & Salovey, 1997). Já o conceito de Burnout é a expressão inglesa para designar aquilo que deixou de funcionar por exaustão de energia (França, 1987, citado por, Carlotto, 2012). Este estudo teve como objetivos compreender a inteligência emocional percebida como fator de proteção face ao burnout, bem como estudar as relações entre a inteligência emocional e o burnout. No estudo participaram 250 professores do 2º ciclo (26.4%), 3º ciclo (57.2%) e Secundário (16.4 %), do género feminino (70.4%) e do masculino (29.6%), da Região Autónoma da Madeira (RAM), Portugal. Como instrumentos usámos um Questionário de Dados Sócio-Demográficos e Profissionais, o Trait Meta-Mood Scale (TMMS-24), o Questionário de Expressividade e o de Regulação Emocional de Berkeley e o Inventário de Burnout de Maslach (MBI). No estudo realizado não se encontrou evidências de que o estado civil, idade, tempo de serviço e nível de ensino lecionado influencie a inteligência emocional e o burnout. Somente o género pareceu influenciar a inteligência emocional. Para confirmar a relação estatística entre a inteligência emocional e o burnout foi realizado um teste de correlação de Spearman entre as variáveis e concluiu-se que quanto maior a reparação das emoções, menor é a exaustão emocional e a despersonalização e quanto maior a reavaliação das emoções, maior a exaustão emocional.Palavras-chave: Inteligência emocional, burnout, professor, expressividade emocional e regulação emocional.

The Relationship

The study investigates the relationship between perceived emotional intelligence, burnout, work engagement, and job satisfaction in 238 Italian school teachers. The mean age was 50 years, ranged from 26 to 66 (SD = 9.16). The research protocol included a demographics data sheet, the Wong and Law Emotional Intelligence Scale (WLEIS; Wong & Law, 2002), the Copenhagen Burnout Inventory (CBI; Kristensen, Borritz, Villadsen, & Christensen, 2005), the Utrecht Work Engagement Scale (UWES; Schaufeli, Bakker, & Salanova, 2006), and the Organizational Satisfaction Scale (QSO; Cortese, 2001). Several international studies already demonstrated an association among these variables. Our results showed that perceived emotional intelligence positively correlates with work engagement and job satisfaction, and negatively correlates with burnout. Hierarchical regression analyses also point out that, among all the perceived emotional intelligence subdimensions, the use of emotion is the best predictor of the study variables, even when controlling for gender differences. These results suggest that emotional intelligence may have a protective role in preventing negative working experiences of teachers.

The Relationship

Objective: To assess the relationship between self-esteem and the academic score of undergraduate medical students of Azad Kashmir, Pakistan. Methods: This cross-sectional observational study was performed from June 2018 to June 2019. The study area was Poonch Medical College, Azad Kashmir. The data collection tool was well-verified and widely used Rosenberg self-esteem scale. The study questionnaire was electronically distributed to all Bachelor of Medicine and Surgery students on the Poonch Medical College. The total student was 500 and out of the 253 completed and submitted the questionnaire (response rate of 50.6%). Results: The mean academic score of all students was 66.61 ± 5.42 and the mean RSE score was 28.66 ± 3.98. A statistically significant correlation was not found between age, academic score, and RSE score. Female students had slightly higher academic performance scores and RSE scores compared to the male students, but this difference was not statistically significant. Conclusion: This study did not reveal any significant relationship between academic score and self-esteem of undergraduate medical students. However, both academic scores and self-esteem can be further improved. Future studies are invited to find out the other factors responsible for better academic performance.
