Assess your emotional intelligence — your ability to recognize, understand, manage, and effectively use emotions in yourself and others.
Emotional Intelligence (EQ) is the ability to understand and manage your own emotions and recognize and influence the emotions of others. Research shows EQ is often more important than IQ for success in life and work. This test evaluates the four key dimensions: self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, and relationship management.
This test is designed for entertainment and self-reflection purposes. Results are not clinically validated and should not be used as a substitute for professional assessment.
Emotional intelligence (EI or EQ) refers to the ability to perceive, understand, manage, and use emotions — both your own and those of others. The concept was popularised by Daniel Goleman in the 1990s, though the underlying research dates to earlier work by Peter Salovey and John Mayer.
EI is typically measured across four abilities: perceiving emotions accurately in faces and voices, using emotions to facilitate thought, understanding how emotions develop and relate to each other, and managing emotions in oneself and others.
EI predicts outcomes in leadership, relationship quality, teamwork, and management of stress. It's more trainable than general cognitive ability — which is why it's a focus of coaching and development programmes.
