Research Objectives
The objectives of the study are three-fold:
y (1) to determine if there is a significant relationshipbetween emotional intelligence and work
performance;y (2)to find out which factor of the emotional
intelligence is a major contributor towards workperformance and
y (3)to see if the demographic factors are predictive ofemotional intelligence.

Research Hypothesis
y 1. Employees with higher Emotional Intelligence willoutperform those with lesser Emotional Intelligence
y 2. The three parameters of EI, i.e., emotional
sensitivity, emotional maturity, and emotionalcompetency, will have a positive correlation with oneanother and each one would contribute to predictoverall job performance with emotional competencyas the main contributor
y 3. There would be no significant relationshipbetween demographic variables (gender, educationalqualification, and working experience) and EI

y Job Performancey companys formal appraisal of the
employees performance was usedas the measure of job performance.
y Data were collected by using bothquantitative and qualitative
y scales of measurement. Focusgroup discussion (FGDs) andpersonal interview method (PIM)were also
y used. The evaluation is based onthe employees overall jobperformance, which is directly related to their current and pastresearch outputs.
y Emotional Intelligencey
EI test developed byChadha and Singh(2001) for Indianrespondents, was used.EI scale constitutes threepsychologicaldimensions emotionalcompetency, emotionalmaturity, and emotionalsensitivity

y To assess the relationship between EI andperformance, t-tests, ANOVA, and Pearsoncorrelations have been performed

Results
y Bivariate correlation was applied to see if therewould be significant relationship between thepredictor variables (EI variables) and the criterion
variable (work performance)

y Linear correlation is present between EI and overallperformance score. There is a positive correlationamong all the EI factors (emotional competency,
emotional maturity, and emotional sensitivity), withone another, and with total EI score with asignificance level of 0.01. There is also a positivecorrelation between the total EI scores and overall
performance with 0.01 level significance. Thecorrelation coefficient varies from 0.37 to 0.91.

y The ANOVA result of performance with the EI factors,i.e., competency, maturity, and sensitivity. This test wascarried out to determine which of the three factors was amajor contributor to overall performance.
y
The respondents were divided among three separategroups based on their performance scores, i.e., low,medium, and high with low group having a performancescore up to 80, medium group having a score between 80and 85, and high group having a score more than 85. Thedifferent factors, e.g., competency, maturity, and
sensitivity haveF values 12.62, 6.91, and 5.25respectively all at a significance level of 0.01. It showsthat out of the above three parameters, competency is themajor contributor towards the overall performance.

y To have an idea on whether demographic variableshave any significant effect on emotional intelligence,T-tests were used.
y T-tests usedto show the effectof demographicvariables,
y Gender (male vs. female) and qualification(graduate vs. postgraduate) do nothave any
significant effect on the EI parameters whereas workexperience has a significant effect on EI with more
work experience people have higher EI.
