Emotional intelligence and gender role conflict: Co-contributors in personal effectiveness

TL;DRAbstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between emotional intelligence as measured by the Mayer, Salovey, Caruso Emotional Intelligence Test (MSCEIT 2002), and gender role conflict as measured by the Gender Role Conflict Scale (O'Neil 1986). This study took place during the Fall of 2004 utilizing the entire Executive Masters of Business Administration program participants at the University of Connecticut School of Business. The relationship between total and selected subscale scores of these instruments was analyzed. The Marlowe-Crowne 2(10) social desirability scale was used to determine any biased self-presentation or dissimulation among this student population. The goal of this study is to expand recent findings that emotional intelligence and gender role conflict impact interpersonal relationships and life/career success, as well as to identify further research opportunities that may be suggested by the research findings of this study. ^ A multivariate analysis
