This is a unique opportunity to complete an online emotional intelligence assessment with the results debriefed with you by a researcher in the area of emotional intelligence using the BarOn EQ-i ™.

General Information About the BarOn Emotional Quotient Inventory Based on seventeen years of research by Dr. Reuven Bar-On and tested on over 33,000 individuals worldwide, the BarOn Emotional Quotient Inventory (EQ-i)is the first scientifically developed and validated measure of emotional intelligence. Emotional intelligence reflects one's ability to deal with daily environment challenges and helps predict one's success in life, including professional and personal pursuits. A growing body of research suggests that emotional intelligence, measured by Emotional Quotient (EQ), is a better predictor of success than the more traditional measures of cognitive intelligence (IQ). What does the BarOn EQ-i measure? The BarOn EQ-i assessment consists of 133 items and takes approximately 30 minutes to complete.  The assessment isbased on the most comprehensive theory of emotional intelligence to date and renders an overall EQ score as well as scores for the following 5 composite scales and 15 subscales: Intrapersonal Scales Self-Regard Emotional Self Awareness Assertiveness Independence Self-Actualization Interpersonal Scales Empathy Social Responsibility Interpersonal Relationship Adaptability Scales Reality Testing Flexibility Problem Solving Stress Management Scales Stress Tolerance Impulse Control General Mood Scales Optimism Happiness These important areas of emotional intelligence are measured accurately with the aid of 4 validity indices and a sophisticated correction factor. How can the BarOn EQ-i be used? The BarOn EQ-i can be employed in many ways and in a variety of settings.  The BarOn EQ-i can be used by organizations for screening as part of the recruiting process to aid in identifying potentially successful employees. It can also be employed in identifying those emotional and social skills that are important to develop in employee training programs, team building, and in enhancing managerial competencies at work. Research indicates that there is a strong correlation between emotional intelligence and job performance. You can even create a profile of the top performers in your organization to determine what skills are most valuable in your company or for any particular position. Skills associated with emotional intelligence develop throughout life and can be improved through training, making the BarOn EQ-i a valuable instrument for identifying potential areas for improvement and for measuring the effectiveness of organizational development programs.
