Emotional intelligence in students with different levels of stress resistance

Abstract

Relevance of the topic Emotional intelligence (EI) is one of the key aspects of modern psychology that affects a person's success in personal, professional, and social life. The ability to understand and manage emotions helps a person to adapt to difficult life circumstances and avoid emotional exhaustion. The role of EI is especially important in the student years, as this period is characterized not only by a high academic load but also by the need to adapt to new social conditions. It is at this stage that the skills of self-control, emotional stability and building interpersonal relationships are formed, which significantly affect the future. The notion of stress resistance, which is closely related to EI, is also gaining in importance. Stress resistance determines a person's ability to remain effective in difficult situations. Due to the growing dynamics of social life and the increased level of competition in education, the study of the relationship between EI and stress resistance is relevant from both scientific and applied points of view.
