The Role of Emotional Intelligence in Various Domains of Well-being
More recent studies show that emotional intelligence is one of two best predictors of quality of life (Mayer, Salovey, 2003, Chamorro – Premuzic, et al. 2006). Mayer and Salovey (1997) defined emotional intelligence as the ability to perceive, appraise, and express emotions accurately, the ability to access and generate feelings to facilitate cognitive activities, the ability to understand emotion and the ability to manage emotions to promote growth, well - being and functional social relations. They argue that EI is a set of conceptually related psychological processes involving the processing of affective information. Cummings Theory of Subjective Well-being Homeostasis (Cummings, 1993) proposes that subjective well-being is actively controlled and maintained by a set of psychological devices that function under the control of personality. This proposes that each person has a ‘ set-point’ for personal well-being that is internally maintained and defended. We hypothesize that the emotional intelligence is one of psychological devices which could maintain subjective assess of well-being. The main goal of the present study is to examine the relationship between two different variants of emotional intelligence and quality of life among supervisors. The research was provided within occupational settings in the sample of 60 supervisors. The Vocabulary Emotional Intelligence test (VET– 3, Takšić, 2004), an ability-based measure of emotional intelligence, and ESCQ– 45 (Takšić, 2002) as a self report measure of emotional intelligence, were used to predict quality of life over and above the personality traits. Quality of life was measured with Cummings The Comprehensive Quality of Life Scale for Adults, operationalised as subjective dimensions of QOL, assesses importance and satisfaction on seven domains of well - being. The results showed significant relation of EI with various domains of well-being, even when effects of the personality traits were controlled.
