Emotional intelligence (EI) relates to one's ability to recognize and understand emotional information and then, to use it for planning and self-management. Given evidence of abnormalities of emotional processing in impulsively aggressive individuals, we hypothesized that EI would be reduced in subjects with Intermittent Explosive Disorder (IED: n = 43) compared with healthy (n = 44) and psychi...

Emotional Intelligence (EI) has generated a broad interest both in the lay and scientific fields. Since the development of the concept, research on EI is increasing exponentially. Prestigious scientists from different lines of research contribute to this Special Issue on EI, assessing important theoretical and empirical topics on this construct. The first section of the Special Issue comprises ...

Introduction: The introduction of digital radiography has led to a significant problem in terms of dose creep. To address this problem, manufacturers have established a set of exposure indicators (EI) as a feedback mechanism to safeguard against overexposure. The EI is the measure of incident exposure to the detector that is directly proportional to the signal-to-noise...

The current research aimed to examine the nexus of relationships between emotional intelligence (EI) and adaptive coping with stressful encounters among adolescents. More specifically, the study assesses the extent to which EI uniquely facilitates adaptive coping, beyond the effects of general intelligence and personality dimensions. The research is based on Mayer and Salovey’s (1997) definitio...

The phosphoenolpyruvate:glycose phosphotransferase system (PTS) participates in important functions in the bacterial cell, including the phosphorylation/uptake of PTS sugars. Enzyme I (EI), the first protein of the PTS complex, accepts the phosphoryl group from phosphoenolpyruvate, which is then transferred through a chain of proteins to the sugar. In these studies, a mutant GFP, enhanced yello...

INTRODUCTION Following X-ray exposure, radiographers receive immediate feedback on detector exposure in the form of the exposure index (EI). PURPOSE To identify whether radiographers are meeting manufacturer-recommended EI (MREI) ranges for routine chest, abdomen and pelvis X-ray examinations under a variety of conditions and to examine factors affecting the EI. METHODS Data on 5000 adult X...

The current study examined the correlation among Iranian EFL learners’ emotional intelligence (EI), critical thinking (CT) ability, and L2 vocabulary knowledge (VK). To this end, surveys were administered to 75 Iranian advanced EFL participants. Analyses of the data revealed a mutual relationship between the Iranian EFL learners’ EI and their L2 VK. Similarly, a positive correlation was found b...
