需要研究情绪智力(EI)与性别的相关性,特别是生物和心理相关性,如个性,大脑活动,认知和情绪。对一大群健康的男性和女性进行了EI、个性、情绪、认知功能、大脑活动和心率变异性的测试。女性被发现有略高的EI分数比男性,而一个类似的个人资料,发现预测EI在两性。像外向性,外向性和开放性等因素被发现对男女的EI有积极的贡献,这意味着更高水平的情感能力与一个外向,可靠和独立的人有关。皮质唤醒不足导致男性和女性的低EI,这与需要躯体标记来指导人类行为的提议一致。虽然额叶不对称与低EI患病女性相关,但这一发现对EI总体方差的贡献很小(1%),应谨慎对待。总的来说,研究结果表明,人格和大脑活动因素的EI可能有助于在EI表现在男性和女性的个体差异相关。(C)2008爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
Research is needed that investigates the correlates of emotional intelligence (EI) as a function of sex, especially biological and psychological correlates Such as personality, brain activity, cognitions and mood. A large group of healthy males and females were tested for EI, personality, mood, cognitive function, brain activity and heart rate variability. Females were found to have slightly higher EI scores than males while a similar profile of personality was found to predict EI in both sexes. Factors like extraversion, conscientiousness and openness were found to contribute positively to EI in both sexes, meaning a higher level of emotional capacity was associated with a person who is outgoing, dependable, and independent-minded. Cortical Under-arousal contributed to low EI in both males and females, consistent with the proposal that somatic markers are needed to guide human behaviour. While frontal asymmetry was associated with low EI ill females, the contribution of this finding to Overall variance in EI Was Small (1%) and should be treated with Caution. Overall, findings Suggest that personality and brain activity factors are correlates of EI that may contribute to individual differences in EI manifest in males and females. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd.
