  2. K. V. Petrides Aims • To give an indication of the main divisions of the research programme • To mention, as opposed to explain, core research findings • All papers are downloadable from www.psychometriclab.com • To bring to your attention the range of assessment materials available via LPL October 2009, NTU Taipei

  3. K. V. Petrides Background & milestones • Thornike’s ‘social intelligence’. • Gardner’s (1983) ‘multiple intelligences’. • Intrapersonal intelligence • Interpersonal intelligence • ‘Emotional intelligence’ as a term appears in Greenspan (1989), Leuner (1966), Payne (1986). • Salovey & Mayer (1990) • Goleman (1995) • Petrides and colleagues (2000-) • Trait EI versus Ability EI • Trait emotional intelligence research programme October 2009, NTU Taipei

  4. K. V. Petrides Operationalization of EI • Two crucial issues are involved in the operationalization of EI (and of any other construct): • What is the sampling domain of construct? • How do we measure the various components of the sampling domain? • Until recently – and even now – the first question was resolved by having as many sampling domains and EI definitions as researchers in the field. • Until recently – and even now – the second question was not even considered, with researchers assuming that the use of self-report or maximum-performance tests has no implications for operationalization. October 2009, NTU Taipei

  5. K. V. Petrides Trait EI vs ability EI • Ability EI (or ‘cognitive-emotional ability’) in theory encompasses emotion-related cognitive abilities and should be measured via maximum-performance tests (although this has not proved possible). • Trait EI (or ‘trait emotional self-efficacy’) encompasses emotion-related dispositions and self-perceptionsand should be measured via self-report questionnaires.

  6. K. V. Petrides Trait EI vs ability EI II October 2009, NTU Taipei

  7. KV Petrides Veridical scoring in IQ tests Nonverbal analogies Raven’s matrices • The existence of single, invariant, and objectively derived correct response is a defining characteristic of intelligence testing.

  8. K. V. Petrides Operationalization of ability EI • If ability EI is a new cognitive ability, then items or tasks with emotional content need to be developed such that they can be scored according to truly veridical criteria. • In other words, the construct in its entirety ought to be assessed through items that can be responded to correctly or incorrectly. • Is it possible to develop EI items along cognitive ability lines? • NO: emotional experience is inherently subjective (Brody, 2004; Locke, 2005; Pérez, Petrides, & Furnham, 2005; Watson, 2000).

  12. K. V. Petrides Trait EI • Trait emotional intelligence is a constellation of emotion-related self-perceptions located at the lower levels of personality hierarchies (Petrides, Pita, & Kokkinaki, 2007). • The trait EI sampling domain aims to provide comprehensive coverage of the emotion-related aspects of personality. • Trait EI rejects the notion that emotions can be artificially objectified in order to be made amenable to veridical scoring, along IQ lines. • An alternative label for the construct is “trait emotional self-efficacy”.
