Emotional Intelligence reflects how a person interacts with and applies his or her knowledge to the immediate situation. Broadly speaking, emotional intelligence addresses the emotional, personal, social, and survival dimensions of intelligence.

It is concerned with understanding oneself and others, relating to people, and adapting to and coping with the immediate surroundings to be more successful in dealing with environmental demands.

The BarOn EQ-i® comprises 133 brief items and employs a five-point Likert-type response set ranging from (1) “Very Seldom or Not True of Me” to (5) “Very Often True of Me or True of Me”. It takes approximately 30-40 minutes to complete.

The BarON EQ-i® is very versatile in business environments in which the 4 validity indices and a sophisticated correction factor, the BarOn EQ-i® renders scores for the following scales and subscales:

Because of its brevity and the multifaceted information that it supplies, the EQ-i can be used by employers as a screening tool in hiring to select emotionally intelligent, emotionally healthy and potentially successful personnel. Supplemented by other sources of information, such as interviews and the results of other assessments, the EQ-i can make the employee recruitment and selection process more reliable and more efficient.
