The pillars of emotional intelligence according to Mayer and Salovey

[ishanijerin1]

According to these scholars, emotional intelligence is the ability to process emotional information about oneself and others, making it possible to use this knowledge to guide thinking and behavior , as well as adapt to everyday circumstances.

These researchers reviewed the theory after Goleman's paraguay mobile database publication and defined the following pillars:

Emotional perception
A person's ability to correctly perceive what they feel and what other people are feeling in terms of emotions and thoughts. In more advanced stages of this competence, the ability to differentiate between correct and incorrect emotional expressions is acquired.

Emotional facilitation
It refers to the ability of thought to produce and transition between emotional states in a way that facilitates the cognitive process and performance.

In more developed states, this ability allows integration between emotions and cognition, optimizing the information process.

Emotional understanding
It involves being able to identify and describe emotions in their fluctuations and mixtures in the face of different events. These are called complex emotional reactions, that is, those that combine more than one feeling.

Emotional management
Ability to use knowledge about emotions based on their usefulness in situations and relationships with others.
