Cognitive and emotional intelligence in the context of school achievement

Kaliská, Lada, 1976- Cognitive and emotional intelligence in the context of school achievement : what a new challenge in the education of 21st century IS / Lada Kaliská. -- The study extends the research of intelligence concept. It presents correlation analysis of cognitive intelligence (assessed by Intelligence Structure Test /IST/ by R. Amthauer /1973/) and school achievement (assessed by final term grades from the mother tongue / Slovak language/ and Mathematics) in a research sample of 151 high school students estimating the moderate significant correlation (r=.39; p≤.001) between IQ and grades from Math especially for boys. Regression model predicted 14% of its variance. Weak significant correlation (r=.17; p≤.05) between IQ and grades from Slovak language was estimated where regression model predicted only 2% of its variance. Pearson´s correlation analysis proved low to zero correlations (.02≤.r≤.11) between global level of trait emotional intelligence /EI/ (assessed by the verified Slovak version of Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire-short form /TEIQue-SF/) and general intelligence and also the final term grades from the Slovak language and Math. Trait emotional intelligence seems to be a psychological construct completely different from the cognitive one and school achievement. These results support construct validity of trait emotional intelligence construct (its discriminant character). The study points at the necessity to facilitate social-emotional learning at schools of the 21st century to keep up adolescent´s mental health.
