Description
Does emotional intelligence matter in graduate school? This study examined the relationship between emotional intelligence and anxiety in graduate students. Seventy-two graduate students participated in this study. Our results suggest that different dimensions of emotional intelligence have different relationships with anxiety. We will discuss the implications of the results in the poster presentation. Participants will learn to differentiate various dimensions of emotional intelligence and their significance in predicting graduate students’ emotional well-being.
