Emotional Intelligence and Reading Performance

By Sara Abdorazik

Psychological traits seem to have an effect on foreign language learning. Consequently, this book aims to examine the possible correlation between the emotional intelligence (EI) levels of the ELT undergraduate students and their reading achievements. Besides, the work explores whether there are any gender differences in terms of emotional intelligence levels as well as reading comprehension performance. To accomplish this study, Schutte's (1998) Emotional Intelligence Scale was employed as a first data collection instrument to measure the participants' EI levels. In addition, an IELTS reading test was used to identify the students' reading proficiency. This book, therefore, could provide useful results for those who seek to explore the correlation between psychological traits and English language learning. In addition, it could be helpful for both psychologists and Language teachers.
