emotional intelligence
by Katherine Bilsborough

What exactly is emotional intelligence (EQ)?  Can it be measured?  How can it be measured?  Is it related to traditional IQ or do the two types of intelligence exist completely separately?  And how important is it?

For answers to these questions, in this article you can

  • read about EQ and check your comprehension, both general and specific.
  • listen to an expert speaking, check how well you have understood the points he is making and see how good you are at hearing the exact words that have been said.
