BACKGROUND
Relationship between emotional intelligence and emotional variables such as stress, depression, anxiety and mental health has been well documented in child and adult samples. New insights into the association between emotional intelligence and different components of mental health in one study (cognitive, emotional and behavioral dimensions) can help patients, therapists, relatives, and friends to understand, explain, and cope with symptoms. There have been no studies assessing the association between the emotional intelligence (EI) with various factors in Lebanon. This study principal aim was to evaluate how EI is related to mental health issues: social anxiety, depression, alcohol use disorders (AUD), work fatigue, stress and alexithymia in Lebanon.
METHODS
789 participants were enrolled in a cross-sectional study between November 2017 and March 2018. A cluster analysis was used to evaluate participants' profiles with the help of emotional intelligence subscales, to separate the Lebanese population into equal limited units with different characteristics using the K-mean technique.
RESULTS
Three clusters were computed dividing participants into low EI (cluster 1; 24.5%), moderate EI (cluster 2; 43.7%) and high EI (cluster 3; 31.7%) respectively. Fitting into the cluster 1 (low EI) was significantly associated with higher AUD, alexithymia, anxiety, depression, perceived stress, social phobia, emotional, mental and physical work fatigue, suicidal ideation compared to cluster 3 (high EI). Fitting into the cluster 2 (moderate EI) was significantly correlated with higher AUD, depression, alexithymia, anxiety, perceived stress, social phobia, mental work fatigue and suicidal ideation compared to cluster 3 (high EI).
CONCLUSION
This study results suggest that emotional intelligence is related to different variables, warranting interventions to limit/decrease alcohol abuse and mental/psychological illnesses as much possible.
背景
情绪智力与压力、抑郁、焦虑和心理健康等情绪变量之间的关系在儿童和成人样本中已有充分记录。在一项研究中（认知、情感和行为维度），对情绪智力与心理健康不同成分之间的关联有了新的认识，可以帮助患者、治疗师、亲属和朋友理解、解释和应对症状。在黎巴嫩，还没有研究评估情绪智力（EI）与各种因素之间的关系。本研究的主要目的是评估 EI 如何与心理健康问题相关：社交焦虑、抑郁、酒精使用障碍（AUD）、工作疲劳、压力和述情障碍。
方法
2017 年 11 月至 2018 年 3 月期间，对 789 名参与者进行了横断面研究。使用聚类分析，借助情绪智力子量表，使用 K-均值技术，将参与者的特征分为具有不同特征的相等有限单位，从而评估参与者的特征。
结果
通过计算，将参与者分为低 EI（第 1 组；24.5%）、中 EI（第 2 组；43.7%）和高 EI（第 3 组；31.7%）三个组。与第 3 组（高 EI）相比，归入第 1 组（低 EI）与更高的 AUD、述情障碍、焦虑、抑郁、感知压力、社交恐惧症、情感、精神和体力疲劳、自杀意念显著相关。归入第 2 组（中等 EI）与更高的 AUD、抑郁、述情障碍、焦虑、感知压力、社交恐惧症、精神疲劳和自杀意念显著相关，与第 3 组（高 EI）相比。
结论
本研究结果表明，情绪智力与不同变量有关，需要进行干预，尽可能减少/减少酗酒和精神/心理疾病。
