Incremental validity of the Mayer–Salovey–Caruso Emotional Intelligence Test Version 2.0 (MSCEIT) after controlling for personality and intelligence

چکیده
This study examined the incremental validity of the Mayer–Salovey–Caruso Emotional Intelligence Test Version 2.0 after controlling for general cognitive ability and the Big 5 personality factors. The criterion measures used were academic achievement, psychological well-being, peer attachment, positive relations with others, and alcohol use. Results of these analyses suggest that emotional intelligence (EI) explains a significant and moderate to large amount of unique variance for alcohol use and positive relations with others after controlling for cognitive ability and personality. Implications of these results for theory and future research on the ability model of EI are discussed. 2008 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

This study investigated the convergent, discriminant, and incremental validity of one ability test of emotional intelligence (EI)—the Mayer-Salovey-Caruso-Emotional Intelligence Test (MSCEIT)—and two self-report measures of EI—the Emotional Quotient Inventory (EQ-i) and the self-report EI test (SREIT). The MSCEIT showed minimal relations to the EQ-i and SREIT, whereas the latter two measures we...
