The study of emotional intelligence (EI) in work environments is a trending topic. However, few studies have examined the relationship between EI and salary. Therefore, the presented research aims to analyze the influence of EI on salary using a multioccupational sample. The participants were 785 subjects aged between 18 and 58 years (M = 39.41; SD = 10.95). EI ability was measured using the Mobile Emotional Intelligence Test (MEIT), while the salary was collected together with other sociodemographic variables in a questionnaire created ad hoc. After controlling for the age, gender, social class, educational level, and work experience variables, the results of correlation and regression analysis showed that participants with higher EI and emotional-repair capacity generally have higher salary. These findings provide preliminary evidence that EI is a relevant variable in achieving career success. The ability to channel and manage emotions could help employees develop stronger interpersonal relationships, leading to higher positions and greater financial compensation.

The object of this study relates to the level of importance of emotional intelligence and emotions in the process of decision making, and how these elements intervene in interpersonal relationships. In this sense, the general goal of this research project is centred in the ability of the human being to understand and manage his emotions, as well as his capacity to conduct those of others, in the interpersonal relationships established in organizations, at both endogenous and exogenous levels. An extensive revision was carried out, of the literature which contributed to the building of a logical theoretical frame, and which located reflections on the thematic of emotions, emotional intelligence, facial expressions and decision making. To carry out this research, the methodological procedures used consisted in the development of a descriptive research, a case study, co-relational and transversal; and the method employed was quantitative, based on the use of a questionnaire. The sampling was, non-probabilistic by convenience, limited to 60 people, having presented the inevitability of the representation of the chosen population, in a way to adequately reflect the needs showed in the study. The generated data were processed by software. From the analyses of the generated data, it was possible to obtain an answer to the question posed by the study, having been shown the need for a stimulus to occur, in order to generate an emotion, and a consequent making of a decision, where the emotional intelligence is a means which should positively intervene, in compliance with the elements retrieved from the analysis of the referred bibliography. The results obtained supported the formulated hypothesis. The greater part of the respondents showed ease in the contact with other individuals around them, having established stable proximities, and revealing an elevated predisposition to interact, even if that interaction should imply the need for behaviour adjustments. One can infer that from behaviours of this nature only positive relationships can occur, in which case the emotional component of the individuals can be considered balanced, revealing emotional intelligence.

Background: Emotional intelligence (EI) involves a combination of competencies which allow a person to be aware of, to understand the emotions of others and to use this knowledge to foster their and others success. Objective: This study aims to provide a systematic review of published researches on the emotional intelligence among women. Methodology: To achieve this aims, papers were selected in January 2019 with search terms “Emotional intelligence” “Emotional intelligence among women” and “Gender in emotional intelligence” from five databases: Scopus, PsycINFO, Springer, Google Scholar, and ScienceDirect. 26 research based article were evaluated published from 2010 to 2018. Results: The analysis the published articles considered two basic central themes in the study of emotional intelligence among women: level of women emotional intelligence and emotional intelligence attributes. The study revealed the level of emotional intelligence is low, meaning that women are less emotionally intelligent. Similarly, the study identified ten (10) emotional intelligence attributes among women which include empathy, social responsibility, stress tolerance, emotional self-awareness, emotional expression, independence, flexibility, problem solving, impulse control, interpersonal relationships and optimism. Conclusions: Considering the results of various studies analysed in this review clearly, identified methodological weakness in emotional intelligence study such as sample size most of the studies but only few studies recognised and report the limitation. Similarly, none of these studies investigate the causes of this low state of emotional intelligence among women. The findings add to the growing empirical evidence regarding emotional intelligence. Future researches should look into some of these limitation and address sample size challenges, for batter generalization of research findings, sample size should always be considered. Future work should as well examine in more detail the role of cognitive or other factors in determining the emotional intelligence among women

Abstract.The literature has shown that emotional intelligence has a great importance in personal success indicators such as interpersonal relationships, academic success and personal and social adjustment. For this reason, the school’s mission is not only to promote the learning of science but also emotional and social knowledge that will be significant cross life span and are important work since childhood. In this situation, we consider relevant to investigate whether reading activities conducted in extracurricular classroom are related to the development of emotional intelligence in students, since Mayer and Salovey (1997) argue that the literature is probably the first home of the intelligence emotional. The study included 55 girls (55.6 %) and 44 (44.4%) boys between 7 and 10 years old, students from a basic school from Região Autónoma da Madeira (RAM). Two instruments were chosen to assess emotional intelligence: a performance scale and self-assessment scale. To evaluate student performance was used the Portuguese version, translated by Roazzi et al. (2008), of the Test of Emotion Comprehension (TEC) of Pons et al. (2004), which measures the level of emotional understanding. To assess students’ perceptions of their emotional intelligence was used the Portuguese version of the questionnaire of emotional intelligence of Bar -On (Candeias & Rebocho , 2007). As an indicator of student reading activity, the number of books read during the first period of the 2013/2014 school year for extracurricular classroom was recorded. The results indicate significant and positive relationships between the number of books read in the extracurricular activity with emotional understanding and the perception of emotional intelligence.Resumen.La literatura ha demostrado que la inteligencia emocional tiene una gran importancia en indicadores de éxito personal como las relaciones interpersonales, el éxito académico y la adaptación personal y social. Por esta razón, la escuela tiene como misión no solo promover el aprendizaje de contenidos científicos sino también contenidos emocionales y sociales que serán transversales a los largo de la vida y que son importantes trabajar desde  la infancia. Ante esta situación, consideramos pertinente investigar si las actividades de lectura realizadas en aulas extracurriculares de biblioteca están relacionadas con el desarrollo de la inteligencia emocional en los alumnos, pues Mayer y Salovey (1997) afirman que la literatura es probablemente el primer hogar de la inteligencia emocional. En este estudio participaron 55 niñas (55.6%) y 44 (44.4%) niños, entre los 7 y 10 años de edad, alumnos de una escuela pública de 1.º ciclo de la Região Autónoma da Madeira (RAM). Fueron escogidos dos instrumentos para evaluar la inteligencia emocional: una escala de desempeño y una de autoevaluación. Para evaluar el desempeño del alumno fue utilizada la versión portuguesa traducida por Roazzi et al. (2008) del Test of Emotion Comprehension (TEC) de Pons et al. (2004), que mide el nivel de comprensión emocional. Para evaluar la percepción del alumno sobre su inteligencia emocional fue utilizada la versión portuguesa del cuestionario de inteligencia emocional de Bar-On (Candeias & Rebocho, 2007). Como indicador de la actividad lectora de los alumnos fue contabilizado el número de libros leídos durante el primer periodo del año escolar 2013/2014 en el aula extracurricular de biblioteca o biblioteca abierta. Los resultados indican relaciones significativas y positivas entre el número de libros leídos en la actividad extracurricular de biblioteca con la comprensión emocional y con la percepción de inteligencia emocional.
