Emotional intelligence (EI) is related to life success and everyday social interactions. The extent to which competitive personality orientation (CPO) may influence emotional intelligence among adolescents is unknown. The objective of this investigation was to determine the relationship between adolescent competitive personality orientation and emotional intelligence and if competitive personality orientation predicts emotional intelligence while controlling for demographic variables. Participants were 200 students (91 females, 109 males, M age=17.24 years) from three Midwestern high schools. An inverse relationship was discovered between competitive personality orientation and emotional intelligence. Higher competitiveness was associated with lower levels of EI and this relationship was maintained when demographic variables were statistically controlled. As well, females scored significantly higher for EI and lower for competitive orientation than males. The findings potentially have implications for youth organizations to consider the level of emphasis placed on competitive programming and for including activities whereby youth work cooperatively with each other for promoting EI development.

IntroductionThe aim of this study is to investigation the relationship between test anxiety and emotional intelligence (EQ) in boys and girls of high schools of Tehran city.MethodsIn this study 100 boys and 100 girls were selected via multi stage cluster sampling from the mentioned high schools. The participants were asked to answer two questionnaires. The beck anxiety inventory and bar- on emotional quotient inventory were used to measure anxiety and emotional intelligence.ResultsThe result of this study suggested that test anxiety has a negative effect on EQ and therefore all EQ parameters have reverse correlation with amount of test anxiety. Such correlation was not seen between anxiety and phenomenon such as self expression, inter personal affairs and sympathy.ConclusionEmotional intelligence is defined as the awareness and ability to manage emotions in a healthy and productive manner, By providing a suitable educational environment in schools and families, we can help students learn how to control their emotions and thereby increase their EQ to be able to manage their emotions while encountering exams or other difficult situations in life.

Today emotional intelligence is increasingly relevant to the success of management as well as employees in every respect, be it internal issues like conflict resolution, group dynamics, leadership and motivation or the external issues like customer relationship management, brand loyalty and corporate social responsibility (CSR). There is limited research on the impact of emotional intelligence on job stress and workplace conduct. The objective of the article is to understand the relationship between occupational stress and emotional intelligence. It also attempts to study the impact of some demographic variables (gender, age, work experience) on occupational stress. Simple random sampling was used to collect data from teaching and non-teaching staff working in universities and educational institutions in Uttar Pradesh, India. SPSS 21 was used for data analysis using statistical tools like correlation, Mann-Whitney and Kruskal Wallis tests. Results show a significant relationship between emotional intelligence and occupational stress. The female employees were found to have greater stress levels as compared to their male counterparts. Age is found to have an impact on occupational stress of university teachers. The employees in their forties were found to have higher stress levels than younger employees. Work experience is also found to have an impact on occupational stress of university teachers. It was observed that employees with a work experience of more than 30 years have maximum levels of occupational stress. Based on the findings of this study, the managers should take special measures to take care of female employees and minimize factors which lead to their stress. The policies and work culture of the organization should create a conducive ambience for female employees. The organization should provide support and counselling to employees in their forties to sort out their stress-related issues which would eventually enhance their productivity. The employees with a work experience of more than 30 years (usually older ones) should get support and any stress-causing issues such as post-retirement benefits should be explained and clarified. This study adds to the current body of knowledge from a theoretical perspective. It enriches the understanding of the relationship between emotional intelligence, demographic variables and occupational stress. The top management of the organization can enhance their organization’s effectiveness by learning from the findings of this study.

The relationship between economics and sustainability within the event industry is becoming increasingly important. Events with a reputation of not being sustainable (i.e., motorsport events) are chronically underserved in the literature. This research incorporated the revised New Ecological Paradigm (NEP) as a theoretical foundation to assess sustainability attitudes of motor racing event attendees at a series of major racing events in Monterey County, California (USA). The NEP assessment created the basis for examining relationships between sustainability attitudes and motorsport event patrons' characteristics including demographic information, tourist patrons' total trip spending, and per-day spending. Interestingly, patrons attending these traditionally nonenvironmentally sustainable events were found to have similar NEP scores to other event and nonevent research. Sustainability attitudes were not significantly different based on demographic variables, including age and income. However, an inverse relationship was found between environmental attitudes and spending. Tourist patrons with a less sustainable environmental worldview spent more per day and more per trip than those with a more sustainable environmental worldview. These surprising results provide a basis for industry and academic discourse within event management, sustainability, and marketing.

Sleep duration has been inversely associated with body mass index (BMI). We examined the relationship between self-reported sleep duration and BMI, waist circumference, and percent body fat in Black and White individuals from the CARDIA study. Box-Tidwell regression models were adjusted for age and race (Model 1), additional lifestyle and demographic variables (Model 2), and physical activity (Model 3). There were significant interactions between sleep and gender for the main outcome variables. In men, there was a trend for an inverse relationship between reported sleep duration and BMI in Model2  (β=−0.20,P=.053)but not model3  (β=−0.139,P=.191). In women, inverse relationships were observed between sleep duration and BMI(β=−0.294,P=.005)and waist circumference(β=−0.442,P=.059), in Model 2. These associations became nonsignificant in model 3 (BMI:β=−0.172,P=.084; waist circumference:β=−0.161,P=.474). Our results are consistent with previous findings that sleep is associated with BMI and other body composition variables. However, the relationship between self-reported sleep duration and body composition may be stronger in women than in men.

The Relationship

In our globalized society, understanding emotions and developing resilience can help us move adeptly through the current challenges and future ones.  Emotional intelligence is the capacity of individuals to understand their emotions and those of other people.  It is an ability to label and adjust emotions appropriately, use and manage behavior and relationships, and help them adapt to environments. On the other hand, resilience refers to an individual's capacity to maintain and renew themselves, particularly in the presence of stressors; that is, they can withstand stressors without manifesting psychological dysfunction. Teaching is regarded as among the most stressful jobs today.  Knowing how to cope despite setbacks or barriers, or limited resources is a must for teachers; otherwise, they will easily quit or give up. Hence, the paper describes the level of emotional intelligence and resilience of high school teachers of a Diocesan Catholic School in Antique during the School Year 2019-2020. Additionally, it measures the differences in the level of emotional intelligence and resilience when grouped according to demographic variables. The study also explores the relationship between emotional intelligence and resilience of teachers.

The Relationship

There has been an increase in interest in ‘emotional intelligence’ within the Indian organization system in recent years. This increase has been attributed to the popularization of the construct of emotional intelligence in the research area. The promotion of emotional development in corporate organizations assumes that the ability to regulate emotions is a positive trait, which is associated with positive workplace performance. There is however, currently, little evidence to support the existence of such a relationship. The aim of the current study was to explore the relationship between emotional intelligence and workplace performance among corporate executives. The research was carried out in various organizations in Delhi NCR. A questionnaire design was used to explore whether there was a relationship between emotional intelligence scores and scores from performance assessment checklist for a sample of 90 males and females from different streams of population were taken. The relationship was explored using an analysis of correlation. The effect of demographic variables, e.g., gender, academic qualification, and work experience on EI score were also explored. The analysis found statistically significant positive correlations between scores on the emotional intelligence scale and scores on the performance scales. This means that increased emotional intelligence scores were associated with increased performance among executives working in various sectors. These results provide evidence of the concurrent validity of the emotional intelligence scale and also support the notion that emotional intelligence is associated with more or less workplace performances. The causal nature of this relationship cannot be inferred from the current study and further research is recommended to explore alternative explanations for this relationship. Out of the different demographic variables, only work experience was found to correlate positively with EI score. Experienced executives scored significantly higher on EI scale compared to less experienced executives. The results of the study are discussed within the context of the limitations of the current study and findings from previous research. The implications of the findings for organizations, policy makers, HR professionals, trainers, and future research are reflected upon.

The Impact

Academic leaders need to recognize their own emotions and know the feelings of those around them. Academic leaders are more effective when they pay attention to their social interactions with others in the workplace and the impact they as leaders have on those around them. It is also essential for leaders to recognize the influence that others’ emotions have on them. The purpose of this article is to examine the perception of faculty members towards emotional intelligence (EI) of their academic leaders in the sample select universities, and to study the impact of demographic variables on EI. The data collected were analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics. The data for the study were collected through both the primary and secondary sources. The measuring items used for the study were sourced from existing validated scales and literature. Descriptive statistics was employed to know the descriptive information across various demographic variables on a total sample of 719. The various demographic variables, which were considered for the study, were gender, age and experience. The results revealed that the faculty members of the sample select universities perceived the EI of their academic leaders at an above-average level; presently, they are fairly satisfied with their academic leader’s EI. The results also revealed that the perception of the respondent faculty members towards their HOD’s EI from different universities and states is more or less the same and also the demographic variables have a significant impact on EI. Besides having theoretical implications that open pathways for conducting further research, the findings of the study may serve as a reference for service practitioners in designing strategies that will ensure superior performance of academic leaders in higher educational institutions.
