This study examined the psychometric characteristics of the Emotional Self-Awareness Questionnaire (ESQ), a self-report measure of emotional intelligence. The ESQ, Emotional Intelligence Scale, and measures of alexithymia, positive negative affect, personality, cognitive ability, life satisfaction, and leadership aspirations were administered to 1,406 undergraduate psychology students. The ESQ was reduced from 118 to 60 items via factor and reliability analyses, retaining 11 subscales and a normal score distribution with a reliability of .92. The ESQ had significant positive correlations with the Emotional Intelligence Test and positive affect, significant negative correlations with alexithymia and negative affect, and an insignificant correlation with cognitive ability. The ESQ accounted for 35% of the variance in life satisfaction over and above the Big Five, cognitive ability, and self-esteem, and demonstrated incremental validity in explaining GPA and leadership aspirations. The significance of emotional intelligence as a unique contributor to psychological well-being and performance, and applications for the ESQ in assessment and outcome research in couple and family therapy are discussed.
本研究考察了情绪自我意识问卷（ESQ）的心理计量学特征，该问卷是一种自我报告的情商测量工具。ESQ、情商量表以及述情障碍、正负面情绪、人格、认知能力、生活满意度和领导愿望的测量工具被用于 1406 名心理学专业本科生。通过因素和可靠性分析，ESQ 从 118 项减少到 60 项，保留了 11 个分量表和正态分数分布，可靠性为.92。ESQ 与情绪智力测试和正性情绪呈显著正相关，与述情障碍和负性情绪呈显著负相关，与认知能力无显著相关。ESQ 在解释生活满意度方面的方差占比为 35%，超过了大五人格、认知能力和自尊，在解释 GPA 和领导愿望方面具有增量有效性。情绪智力作为心理幸福感和绩效的独特贡献的重要性，以及 ESQ 在夫妻和家庭治疗中的评估和结果研究中的应用将被讨论。
