Abstract

BARBOSA, Maria Miguel et al. Perceived Emotional Intelligence: what is its influence in Subjective Well-Being?. Estud. psicol. (Natal) [online]. 2020, vol.25, n.3, pp. 347-357. ISSN 1413-294X.  http://dx.doi.org/10.22491/1678-4669.20200035.

In this article we propose to explore the Perceived Emotional Intelligence influence in Subjective Well-Being. To do so, we carry out a quantitative, transversal study adopting a descriptive approach and inter-subject correlational design. The sample is formed of n = 1377 Portuguese and Brazilian participants, between 18 and 81 years of age, of whom 57.8% identified themselves as female and 42.1% as male, 44.4% were Portuguese and 54.9% were Brazilian. In terms of education 38,1% had a post-graduate/master, 33,2% had a first degree/diploma, 14.9% had up to 12 years of schooling and 13.8% had a Ph.D./post-Ph.D. Participants answered the Assessing Emotions Scale and the Reduced Version of the Portuguese Scale of Positive and Negative Affect. There are differences in many dimensions of PEI, according to socio-demographic characteristics and high perception of the competences forming EI is associated with SWB and has a great effect on predicting the variance of Positive Affect.

Keywords : Emotional intelligence; skills; self-perception; subjective well-being; affect.
