Emotional intelligence profiles of nurses caring for people with severe behaviour problems

Reflective ability, empathy, and emotional intelligence in undergraduate social work students: a cross-sectional study from India

“…EI is significantly associated with the health status of people as shown by a meta-analysis of the extant literature (Schutte, Malouff, Thorsteinsson, Bhullar, & Rooke, 2007). It is also seen to be related to academic achievement (Parker, Summerfeldt, Hogan, & Majeski, 2004) and to stress management, problem-solving skills, wellbeing and mental health (Ciarrochi, Deane, & Anderson, 2002;Gerits, Derksen, Verbruggen, & Katz, 2005). This background makes EI a valuable variable of study for students of social work, many of whom experience a high level of stress because of the complex demands of their professional education.…”

The Impact of Trait Emotional Intelligence on Nursing Team Performance and Cohesiveness

“…Concurrently, several unsubstantiated claims have appeared in the popular literature and the media about the significant role of EI in the workplace (Zeidner, Matthews, & Roberts, 2004). Thus, EI has been claimed to validly predict a variety of successful behaviors at work, at a level exceeding that of intelligence (Cooper & Sawaf, 1997;Goleman, 1998;Hay Group, 2000;Weisinger, 1998). Nowadays, the use of EI for the purposes of career selection and job orientation has become a common practice in a great number of organizations, and according to a recent survey of benchmark practices in the United States, 80% of the major corporations are now trying to promote EI in their organization (Zeidner et al, 2004).…”

In line with this enthusiasm, studies investigating EI in the nursing context are currently a topic of keen interest (Gerits, Derksen, Verbruggen, & Katzko, 2005;Kooker, Shoultz, & Codier, 2007;Landa, Lopez-Zafra, Martos, & Guilar-Luzon, in press;Mcqueen, 2004;Montes-Berges & Augusto, 2007).…”

A latent profile analysis of trait emotional intelligence to identify beneficial and risk profiles in well-being and job performance: a study among Japanese eldercare nurses

“…The participants with a profile of high attention, clarity and high emotional intensity reacted more strongly to emotional situations and also maintained their negative mood longer. Another study, which utilized the EQ-i (Bar-On, 1997), identified six to seven EI profiles for each gender and found that high scores for intrapersonal EI and moderate levels of interpersonal EI buffered against burnout in nurses (Gerits et al, 2005). However, the EI profile with the highest scores on these dimensions was not associated with any reduction in burnout.…”

“…Hypothesis 5 (H5): EI profiles with higher interpersonal EI compared with other EI dimensions within the profile will also be associated with poorer outcomes (Fujino et al, 2015;Gerits et al, 2005).…”
