As the first science-based introduction to the topic, this
latest addition to The Psych 101 Series discusses one of the most
pivotal new psychological concepts of the twenty-first century:
emotional intelligence (EI).
Concise yet comprehensive, it provides a critical but balanced
account of this new research area, emphasizing what psychologists
can learn from the emerging science of EI and how it may help treat
mental illness and delinquency, among other issues. An appropriate
text for students and practitioners alike, it presents an
even-handed appraisal of EI programs, focusing on both their
potential and their limitations. Key Features:
Discusses how EI can improve student learning and enhance key work
skills such as communication and teamwork
Covers key research issues, including methods for measuring EI,
its overlap with conventional ability and personality traits, and
the validity of testing for EI
Reviews applied studies and the contribution that research on EI
may make to address real-world personal and societal problems
Examines the main conceptual, measurement, and research issues
identified in various lines of research, most conducted within the
last ten years
