“…Shukla et al in their study observed that majority of the interns (87.16%, n=95) claimed that they have not been officially introduced or received training in the domains of emotional intelligence. 21 In the present study the emotional maturity score was marginally high among males.…”

Background: Emotional intelligence (EI) is multidimensional and includes maturity, sensitivity and competency. It is the skill to identify and understand own and others’ emotions to respond appropriately. Medical interns are expected to have a high degree of EI to face their professional career challenges. During the medical professional training cognitive and clinical skills are evaluated but their EI and its dimensions are nor assessed; hence this study was planned to assess the EI and its dimensions in medical interns. Methods: Objectives were to assess the EI and its dimensions of 140 medical interns. Study design was a descriptive and cross-sectional study. Ethical approval from institutional ethics committee and informed written consent from participants was obtained; administered a questionnaire-based EI test. Data obtained was analysed by ANOVA. Results: Eighty (62.0%) participants were females and 49 (38.0%) males. The mean age of them was 23 years. The mean total EI score was 343.72. It was slightly higher (344.00) in the female interns than in males (343.27). Among the emotional dimensions majority (79.1%) of interns had significantly high (p=0.0001) percentile scores in competency. 67.4% were having significantly lower (p=0.0001) percentile scores in maturity dimension of EI. Sensitivity percentile score was high in 54.3% and low in 45.7% (p=0.7724). Conclusions: This study provides insight about the EI and its dimensions in the medical interns. The maturity and sensitivity are the weaker dimensions of EQ requiring improvement or further development.

“…74 The finding in this study refused the argument that EI encompassed resilience 75 and confirmed EI as the precursor of resilience. 76 Results from Trigueros et al 26 among 1,347 students at the University of Elmira (Spain) and from Schneider et al 77 among 129 psychology students at a university in the United States shared the same conclusion.…”

“…75, 76 It is explained that people with higher EI can use positive emotions to deal with problems. 77, 78 In other words, high EI people can understand, express, and manage their feelings well to develop self-regulatory processes that support them in coping better with hazardous situations related to emotions. 23 Those people also have good social and relational skills that encourage them to seek help much more quickly when they handle challenging circumstances.…”

Literature has shown increasing research on resilience that can help young people deal with mental health problems and improve life satisfaction, well-being, and happiness. However, empirical evidence about the role of resilience has not been proved across cultures, especially in low- and middle-income countries. One of the reasons is the lack of valid measures for assessing resilience. Due to the sensitivity in the number of items and factors of the simple-to-use CD-RISC-10 in many studies, this study aims to achieve the following goals: (a) re-investigate the psychometric properties of CD-RISC-10 and compare those with other models to suggest a better fit structure among Vietnamese youth; (b) to explore the correlation between sociodemographic variables and resilience; (c) to examine the association between emotional intelligence and resilience; and (d) to examine the association between resilience and satisfaction of life. A cross-sectional school-based survey was conducted on 484 students. Findings revealed a valid and reliable scale of the Vietnamese version of the CD-RISC-10 with two subscales: Coping and Optimism. Resilience and its factors did not relate to sex and residence location. Findings showed a strong correlation between resilience, emotional intelligence, and life satisfaction. Emotional intelligence positively predicts resilience, which in turn positively predicts life satisfaction. Limitations and suggestions for future investigation are discussed in this paper.

“…Compelling evidence revealed the association between EI and resilience, indicating that the former affects the latter (e.g., Armstrong et al, 2011;Fabio & Saklofske, 2018;Fong-Hong, 2019;Magnano et al, 2016). In India, studies on school adolescents (Choudhary, 2019;Sharma, 2014), corporate executives (Ravikumar & Dhamodharan, 2014), flood victims (Habib, 2017), medical interns (Shukla et al, 2020), and cancer patients (Kunte, 2014) found a substantial association between the said variables. However, there are limited studies to evaluate EI as a factor of resilience of first-year undergraduate students and moreover, the Indian educational context was far overlooked, and hence the present research intends to fill this gap.…”

Resilience is of utmost importance for first-year undergraduate students to persist and flourish throughout the course of their studies. The researchers explored the comparative and simultaneous effect of two factors, i.e., emotional intelligence (EI) and critical thinking (CT) disposition in predicting the resilience of first-year undergraduate students. A total of 490 participants from the state of West Bengal (eastern part of India) filled out a self-report questionnaire comprising the Connor–Davidson Resilience Scale, a profile for emotional competency, and CT disposition assessment (EMI). Pearson correlation and multiple regression analysis reported that resilience was positively correlated with EI and CT disposition. Further, both EI and CT disposition had unique as well as shared contributions in explaining resilience and the outcome was in favor of EI being the stronger predictor. The study suggests that college authorities and counselors should undertake efficacious support initiatives to foster resilience in students.
