“…The TeiQue has been widely used to assess trait emotional intelligence and shows very good psychometric properties (Petrides, 2009). Psychometric evidence also supports the suitability of the TeiQue for the accurate assessment of trait EI in transcultural research (Pérez-Díaz et al, 2021). In addition, the TeiQue 360° can be used to contrast and complement self-ratings with peer-ratings, such as those provided by colleagues.…”

“…With respect to junior military managers, it should be noted that some of the relevant variance may be confounded by age. The literature suggests that trait EI increases, at least moderately, with age ( Tsaousis and Kazi, 2013 ; Pérez-Díaz et al, 2021 ), and so the nine-year gap between surgeons and junior military managers (the largest in the dataset; see Table 2 ) could partially explain the difference in trait EI means. Nevertheless, these differences generally persisted, albeit slightly diminished, in ANCOVAs covarying out age.…”

“…To our knowledge, this is the first such comparison in the field of emotional intelligence, and one of the more wide-ranging in the broader field of personality. Some relevant trait EI work was previously conducted by Siegling et al (2014) , who compared a sample of United Kingdom managers against the general population, Pérez-Díaz et al (2021) , who compared various public and private sector occupations, and Dugger et al (2022) , who compared a sample of U.S. pilots against the general population. None of these works involved any surgical specialties.…”

Trait emotional intelligence (trait EI or trait emotional self-efficacy) concerns people’s perceptions of their emotional functioning. Two studies investigated this construct in surgeons and comparison occupations. We hypothesized that trait EI profiles would differ both within surgical specialties as well as between them and other professions. Study 1 (N = 122) compared the trait EI profiles of four different surgical specialties (General, Orthopedic, Head and Neck, and Miscellaneous surgical specialties). There were no significant differences amongst these specialties or between consultant surgeons and trainees in these specialties. Accordingly, the surgical data were combined into a single target sample (N = 462) that was compared against samples of engineers, executives and senior managers, lawyers, junior military managers, nurses, and salespeople. Surgeons scored significantly higher on global trait EI than junior military managers, but lower than executives and senior managers, salespeople, and nurses. There were no significant differences vis-à-vis engineers or lawyers. A MANOVA confirmed a similar pattern of differences in the four trait EI factors (Wellbeing, Self-control, Sociability, and Emotionality). Global trait EI scores correlated strongly with single-question measures of job satisfaction (r = 0.47) and job performance (r = 0.46) in the surgical sample. These findings suggest that interventions to optimize the trait EI profiles of surgeons can be helpful in relation to job satisfaction, job performance, and overall psychological wellbeing.

“…Van Witteloostuijn and Muehlfeld [34], based on personal psychology and cognitive psychology, concluded that the personality of a human being is a key determinant of his/her performance and behavior, and that contributes to explaining the differences between individuals in terms of susceptibility to financial behavioral biases. From this perspective, an individual's financial decision process is based on a complex combination of demographics and personal characteristics [35]. Demographics include aspects such as age, gender, income, and level of education [36,37], and personal characteristics refer to personality traits, values, and emotions [38,39].…”

Studies on financial behavior indicate that emotional intelligence (EI) and personality traits (PTs) explain much of the bias in financial activity. This study aims to identify in which dimensions of theEI and PTs of university students in finance further training is needed to avoid financial behavior bias. To this end, the EI and PT levels of a sample of university finance students and financial industry professionals were compared using the Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire (TEIQue) and Big Five Inventory questionnaire. Subsequently, the dimensions of EI and PTs in which students have a deficit compared to professionals were identified, and the impacts that this deficit causes on the financial behavior of students were determined. The results indicate that students are deficient in the EI competencies related to empathy, emotion regulation, self-motivation, stress management, optimism, and self-esteem. Furthermore, PTs are related to kindness, awareness, openness, and extraversion. This deficit makes students more likely to have financial behavior biases such as risk tolerance, endowment, optimism, self-control, and loss aversion. These findings suggest that universities should be aware of providing financial students with full training in EI and PTs to help them successfully address their professional future.
