“…The four dimensions can be summed to produce a total EI score. The Cronbach's alpha of the Chinese version of the EIS for the four dimensions ranged from 0.83 to 0.90 (Wong & Law, 2002) and the EIS has excellent reliability and validity for use with nursing students (Maritza, Olivia, Noé, & Katia, 2015). In this study, the Cronbach's alpha coefficients for the four dimensions ranged from 0.78 to 0.88.…”

Aims To explore nursing students' academic procrastination and its relationship with emotional intelligence (EI) and self‐efficacy, and self‐efficacy's mediation of the relationship between EI and academic procrastination. Background Academic procrastination can lead to a range of negative outcomes. Previous researches have suggested EI and self‐efficacy are associated with academic procrastination, but the underlying mechanism of the relationships between them is not clear. Therefore, it is important to determine how these two factors affect academic procrastination. Design A cross‐sectional survey. Methods A convenience sample of 347 nursing students was recruited from two junior colleges in Jinan City, Shandong Province, China. Results Emotional intelligence and self‐efficacy were negatively associated with academic procrastination. Furthermore, self‐efficacy mediated the relationship between EI and academic procrastination. Conclusions Students who report lower EI and self‐efficacy may be at a higher risk of academic procrastination. One way of weakening individuals' procrastination is to strengthen their EI. Another is to help them believe in their abilities rather than fear failure in achieving their goal. Focusing more on these influencing factors can help nursing educators develop intervention measures aimed at decreasing students' procrastination behaviour, such as through EI and self‐efficacy training. Impact The findings from the current study could have important implications for nursing education. That is, students who report lower EI and self‐efficacy may be at a higher risk of academic procrastination. A larger focus on these influencing factors can help nursing educators and consultants develop intervention measures aimed at decreasing students' procrastination behaviour.

“…Emotional intelligence (EI) is an essential component of combat sport competitors, as they require maximum effort accompanied by mental stress and physical exhaustion, and a lack of EI can affect many performance dimensions (Ghoul et al, 2017). There are three major conceptual models for emotional intelligence (Espinoza-Venegas, Sanhueza-Alvarado, Ramírez-Elizondo, & Sáez-Carrillo, 2015;Fernández-Berrocal, Extremera, & Ramos, 2004): a) Perception dimension: A transverse section of interrelated emotional and social competencies, abilities, and facilitators that influence intelligent behavior; b) Comprehensive dimension: A wide range of competencies and abilities that increase work performance; c) Regulation dimension: The ability to perceive, understand, manage and regulate one's emotions, as well as the emotions of others.…”

This study compared the emotional intelligence and state-trait anxiety between competitive level, gender and performance. For this, were measured 444 athletes (female n=171) from jiu-jitsu (n=142), judo (n=137), karate (n=57), kendo (n=63), taekwondo (n=25) and wrestling (n=20). We applied the Sport Competition Anxiety Test (SCAT) and Trait Meta-Mood Scale (TMMS-24). The results indicated that high-level female showed lower state anxiety than the low-level [14.0 (1.0; 36.0) vs. 20.0 (1.0; 58.0); p=0.03]. High-level showed lower values than intermediate (p=0.006) and lower-level (p=0.013). The 1st regression, the regulation dimension was the main variable to explain the level of competition for females (R2=0.046), in the 2nd model, the regulation dimension and state anxiety explained the level (R2=0.066). For males, trace anxiety explained the lower-level (R2=0.019). In conclusion, lower-level female athletes are more anxious than lower-males, but in the domains of emotional intelligence, higher-level female showed a higher comprehension and perception than higher-males.

“…Para determinar la fiabilidad individual de los indicadores fue necesario calcular las cargas factoriales de cada uno, lo que es ejecutable pues el índice de Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) fue superior a 0.6 para cada uno de los constructos y la prueba de esfericidad de Barlett (PEB) fue significativa (p<0.05) (Espinoza, Sanhueza, Ramírez, & Sáez, 2015) (Tabla 2). Para esto se utilizó el software IBM SPSS Statisctics 21, utilizando el método de extracción de Máxima Verosimilitud y el método de rotación VARIMAX.…”

ResumenEsta investigación tiene como objetivo analizar los factores organizacionales que influyen en la conducta intraemprendedora de los trabajadores, tomando como población objetivo la fuerza laboral representada por una muestra de 392 personas. Las pequeñas y medianas empresas de la Región de Coquimbo en Chile se encuentran en un escenario competitivo que las motiva a tomar decisiones para mejorar sostenidamente la innovación y productividad. Se presenta un modelo cuyos resultados se comparan con aquellos de métodos de ecuaciones estructurales basado en covarianzas. Se determinó que la conducta intraemprendedora se genera a través del apoyo de la dirección, autonomía en el trabajo, las recompensas y la incertidumbre en el puesto de trabajo, factores que explican en un 62% la varianza de la identificación organizacional que tiene el trabajador con su empresa. Esta, a su vez, explica en un 51% la varianza de la conducta intraemprendedora. Palabras clave: competitividad; innovación; productividad; conducta intraemprendedora; ecuaciones estructurales Determinant Factors of Intrapreneurial Behavior in Small and Medium Size Enterprises (SMEs) of the Coquimbo Region in Chile AbstractThe objective of this research is to analyze the organizational factors that influence the intrapreneurial behavior of workers, taking as a target population the workforce represented by a sample of 392 people. The small and medium enterprises of the Coquimbo Region in Chile are in a competitive scenario that motivates them to make decisions to improve innovation and productivity. A model is presented and the results are compared with those of structural equation methods based on covariances. It was determined that intrapreneurial behavior is generated through the management support, autonomy at work, rewards and uncertainty in the workplace, factors that explain 62% of the variance of organizational identification the worker has his company. This, in turn, explains by 51% the variance of intrapreneurial behavior.
