Emotional intelligence (EI) involves using cognitive and emotional abilities to function in interpersonal relationships, social groups as well as manage one's emotional states. It consists of abilities such as social cognition, empathy and also reasoning about the emotions of others.[1]
The literature finds women have higher emotional intelligence ability than men based on common ability tests such as the MSCEIT.[2] Physiological measures and behavioral tests also support this finding.[3][4][5][6]
