The Relationship between Emotional Intelligence and Emotional Competence
Emotional intelligence refers to a person’s ability to accurately understand and assess his or her feelings. It involves being acutely aware of how one responds to different situations as well as how other responds to one’s actions. It involves the desire/motivation to resist impulsive actions or utterances that may cause relational tensions or conflicts (such as anger-motivated verbal outbursts). Therefore, emotional intelligence constitutes people’s capacity for self-motivation, knowledge, and understanding of personal feelings. In addition, it includes the ability to regulate/manage one’s feelings in various social contexts. It also enables to recognize the emotions of others as well as the ability to handle interpersonal relationships.
