Theories Of Emotional Intelligence

Like previously mention, the two main individual intelligence tests are the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Test and the Wechsler tests known as the Wechsler Intelligence Test for Children (WISC) and the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS) for adults. The Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale (SBIS-V) is used today to test assesses fluid reasoning, quantitative reasoning and working memory as well as the ability to compare verbal and nonverbal performance. While the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC-IV) is a test that is used to test a person’s verbal comprehension, working memory, and processing speed while still in school. Last but not least, the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS) is an IQ test for older children and older
Emotional Intelligence is defined as the ability to recognize one's own and other people emotions to discriminate between different feelings and label them appropriately, and to use emotional information to guide thinking and behavior. There are five categories of Emotional Intelligence, they are: Self-awareness, Self-regulation, Motivation, Empathy, and Social Skills. Emotional intelligence is relevant to psychology and the profession. Being that Psychology is the study of the mind and behavior, emotional intelligence falls into the categories of the different concepts that are studied under this science. For example as a Psychologist you study and research concepts such as perception, cognition, attention, emotion, intelligence, phenomenology, motivation, brain functioning, and also personality. With that being said emotional intelligence is very relevant because as a psychologist you will have to deal with different emotions from a patient and that where the emotional intelligence come in at. Emotional establish a positive social relationships with others, and avoiding conflicts, fights, and other social altercations. Lastly, emotions can plays a big role in solving problems, dealing with those problems and how an individual thinks and
Standardization is defined as the process by which test constructors ensure that testing procedures, instructions, and scoring are identical, or as nearly identical as possible, on every testing occasion. Standardizing a test is a very important process of administering the test to a representative sample of future test-takers in order to establish a basis for meaningful comparisons of scores. With that being said, reliability is the consistence or repeatability of a measure instrument. To establish reliability, researchers compare the consistency of test-takers’ scores on two halves of the test, alternate forms of the test, or retests on the same test. There are two types of reliability. Inter-Rater Reliability and Test-retest. Test-retest reliability is when the tester test the same people at different times but the participants should get the same results that he or she received on the previous test. The next reliability is Inter-rater and that is when multiple people are giving assessments of some kind or are the subjects of some test, then similar people should lead to the same resulting scores. It can be used to calibrate people, for example those being used as observers in an experiment. On the other hand, validity is the accuracy which a measuring instrument assesses the attribute that is designed to measure correlated with measures of school performance. In other words, validity refers to how well a test measures what it is purported to
