چکیده

This research revised Wong and Law’s (2002) Emotional Intelligence Scale (WLEIS), and specifically examined the feasibility of its use with Chinese university students. The participants were 1458 university students in two cities in China (Beijing and Shandong province) and results showed that the Chinese version of the WLEIS retained a four-factor structure. The scale had acceptable reliability, concurrent validity, convergent and discriminant validity. The psychometric features of the Chinese scale supported its feasibility as a research instrument to measure EI appropriately in Chinese university students. The results also showed that Chinese male students had higher EI scores than female students, reflecting a deviation from previous research. 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
