Topic: Emotional Intelligence
Instructions:
Imagine you are conducting a research project on emotional intelligence (EI) and its impact on interpersonal relationships. Your task is to design a hypothetical study that explores the connection between emotional intelligence and the quality of relationships.
Research Design: Develop a research design outlining the methodology, including the type of study (e.g., survey, experiment, observation), participant selection, and data collection methods.
Variables: Identify and define the key variables in your study. Explain how you plan to measure emotional intelligence and assess the quality of relationships.
Hypotheses: Formulate two clear hypotheses:
One hypothesis that predicts a positive relationship between emotional intelligence and relationship quality.
One hypothesis that predicts a negative relationship between emotional intelligence and relationship quality.
Data Analysis: Describe the statistical analysis you would use to test your hypotheses. Discuss the potential findings and what they might reveal about the role of EI in interpersonal relationships.
Ethical Considerations: Briefly discuss ethical concerns associated with your study and propose steps to address them.
Conclusion: Summarize the significance of your hypothetical study and how it contributes to our understanding of emotional intelligence and relationships.
Submission: Prepare a well-structured document outlining the research design, variables, hypotheses, data analysis, ethical considerations, and conclusion. Submit your assignment by the specified deadline.
