Emotional Intelligence Psychological Distress and Quality of Life among School Teachers

Abstract

    The purpose of the research was to predict teachers' emotional intelligence, intellectual misery, and quality of life, as well as to find out how things like gender and location affect these things. The final study was quantitative and used a correlational method to analyse the results. A self-superior and coextended questionnaire is used to gather information about college professors. In the first part of the questionnaire, basic information about the person's background is collected. In the second part, the most important factors are looked at, such as EQ and signs of depression. For this study, data were taken from 200 college professors who were chosen at random. A sampling strategy makes it easy to get information from the target population. SPSS was used to look at both descriptive statistics (mean,percentage, and common deviation) and inferential statistics (correlation coefficient). The results show that the different levels of emotional intelligence among university professors are statistically different. It also turned out that teachers in private schools are more likely to be emotionally intelligent than teachers in public schools.
