RELATIONSHIP OF EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE ON LIFE SATISFACTION AND BULLYING OF ADOLESCENTS AND YOUNG ADULTS

Abstract

The aim of this research is to investigate the relationship between emotional intelligence, life satisfaction, and bullying experiences among adolescents and young adults using questionnaire- based analysis. The current research examined the relationship between emotional intelligence (EI), life satisfaction, and bullying among adolescents and young adults. The quantitative approach, administering structured questionnaires to a sample population to assess their levels of EI, self-reported life satisfaction, and experiences of bullying. Statistical analysis reveals significant associations between higher EI scores and increased life satisfaction, as well as reduced likelihood of both being bullied and engaging in bullying behaviors. Moreover, subgroup analyses based on demographic variables provide insights into potential moderating factors influencing these relationships. The findings underscore the importance of fostering EI skills among youth as a means of promoting well-being and mitigating the prevalence of bullying behaviors. Recommendations for educational and intervention strategies aimed at enhancing emotional competence and fostering positive social environments are discussed.
