Relationship between Emotional Intelligence with Life Satisfaction, Subjective Happiness and Resilience in Special Education employees

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship between perceived emotional intelligence with life satisfaction, subjective happiness and resilience in a sample of special education employees who work in special education. Data were collected by using a Trait Meta-Mood Scale and an Emotional Quotient Inventory, both to measure emotional intelligence, Life Satisfaction Scale, Subjective Happiness Scale, and the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale. The results showed that perceived emotional intelligence was related to the previously mentioned variables, highlighting the correlation obtained with resilience.
