    Trait Emotional Intelligence and Academic Performance: Controlling for the Effects of IQ, Personality and Self-Concept
    (Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2011) Ferrando, Mercedes; Prieto, María Dolores; Almeida, Leandro S.; Ferrándiz, Carmen; Bermejo, Rosario; López-Pina, José Antonio; Hernández-Torrano, Daniel; Sáinz, Marta; Carmen Fernández, Maria
    This article analyses the relationship between trait emotional intelligence and academic performance, controlling for the effects of IQ, personality, and self-concept dimensions. A sample of 290 preadolescents (11-12 years old) took part in the study. The instruments used were (a) Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire—Adolescents Short Form (TEIQue-ASF); (b) Children’s Personality Questionnaire (CPQ; Form A, Part A); (c) IQ test TIDI-2; (d) Adaptation Questionnaire (CAI-1); and (e) academic performance. A positive and significant correlation coefficient between trait EI measured by the TEIQue-ASF and general academic performance was found. The TEIQue-ASF showed incremental validity to predict general academic performance, after controlling for intelligence, personality, and self-concept characteristics.
