The term emotional intelligence was introduced by Salovey & Mayer. It is the individual's ability to perceive, evaluate and express emotions. It is also a set of abilities which enable an individual to function effectively and they are an important factor affecting the quality of life. The literature also has a synonymous concept of emotional competence which is a collection of already acquired skills used in specific social situations. Major depressive disorder represents an affective disorder having an impact on a human being's ability to regulate emotions. In their course, there are difficulties with adequate recognition of one's emotional states as well as emotional states of other people. Research indicates, among others, the relationship between emotional intelligence and the occurrence of suicidal thoughts and tendencies, prognosis of therapeutic interactions in patients. A high level of emotional intelligence is a protective factor in the occurrence of mental disorders, including depression, affects the treatment process and influences the creation of effective strategies for coping with stress. The paper presents reports on the level of emotional intelligence and its impact on the functioning of patients with major depressive disorders.
“情商”一词由萨洛维和迈耶提出。它是个体感知、评估和表达情绪的能力。它也是一组能使个体有效发挥功能的能力，是影响生活质量的一个重要因素。文献中还有“情绪能力”这一同义概念，它是在特定社会情境中使用的一系列已习得技能的集合。重度抑郁症是一种情感障碍，会影响人类调节情绪的能力。在病程中，个体难以充分识别自己以及他人的情绪状态。研究表明，情商与自杀念头和倾向的发生、患者治疗互动的预后等存在关联。高情商是包括抑郁症在内的精神障碍发生的一个保护因素，会影响治疗过程，并影响应对压力的有效策略的制定。本文介绍了关于重度抑郁症患者情商水平及其对患者功能影响的报告。
