Emotional Intelligence

"Emotional intelligence (EI) is one of the most widely discussed topics in current psychology. Although first mentioned in the professionals literature nearly two decades ago, in the past five years it has received extensive media attention. The term "emotional intelligence" refers to the ability to identify, express, and understand emotions; to assimilate emotions into thought; and to regulate both positive and negative emotions in oneself and others.". "This book offers a comprehensive critical review of EI. It examines current thinking on the nature, components, determinants, and consequences of EI, and it evaluates the state of the art in EI theory, research, assessment, and applications. The book highlights the extent to which empirical evidence supports EI as a valid construct and debunks some of the more extravagant claims that appear in the popular media. Finally, the book examines the potential use of EI to guide practical interventions in various clinical, occupational, and educational settings."--BOOK JACKET.
