Emotional Intelligence Test: What It Measures and Your Score

Emotional intelligence is the ability to recognise, understand and manage your own emotions as well as those of others. This test assesses five fundamental dimensions: self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy and social skills. Developed from the work of Daniel Goleman, this test will give you a precise picture of your emotional strengths and of the areas for improvement that can enrich your relationships and your well-being.

In the article that follows, I explore emotional regulation. If you recognise yourself in this theme, I designed an emotional regulation test that helps you take stock of how you experience and regulate your emotions. It comes with a guide to extend your reflection beyond the results.

What the test measures

• The ability to identify and understand your own emotions, strengths and weaknesses.
• The ability to regulate your emotions and impulses, and to adapt to change.
• Inner drive, optimism, commitment and perseverance in the face of obstacles.
• The ability to perceive and understand the emotions and needs of others.
• The skill of managing relationships, influencing positively and working as a team.

Take the test: Emotion Management Test → — self-regulation is one of the five key dimensions: to deepen your ability to regulate your emotions, assess precisely where you stand.

How to interpret your score

The result reads as an intensity, not as a diagnosis:

• Emotional intelligence in development: Your emotional intelligence is still under construction. Many opportunities for progress are open to you.
• Moderate emotional intelligence: You have solid foundations in emotional intelligence with notable room for progress.
• High emotional intelligence: Your emotional intelligence is well developed. You manage your emotions and your relationships effectively.
