This study investigates the association between conscientiousness and emotional intelligence (EI) in Paralympic athletes. A sample of 274 athletes (190 male, 84 female) was analyzed using the Schutte EI Scale and a Conscientiousness scale from the Big Five Personality Traits. Results indicated a significant positive relationship between EI and conscientiousness, with EI explaining 28% of the variance in conscientiousness ( < 0.05). Specifically, optimism and mood regulation demonstrated a high positive correlation with conscientiousness (r = 0.501), while assessing feelings showed a moderate positive correlation (r = 0.391), and using feelings revealed a low positive correlation (r = 0.120). Gender-based analysis revealed that female athletes scored significantly higher in emotional usage. These findings suggest that promoting EI in Paralympic athletes could enhance conscientiousness, potentially benefiting their resilience and psychological stability. Future research should explore longitudinal designs to examine these associations further.
本研究调查了残奥会运动员的尽责性与情商（EI）之间的关联。使用舒特情商量表和大五人格特质中的尽责性量表，对274名运动员（190名男性，84名女性）的样本进行了分析。结果表明，EI与尽责性之间存在显著的正相关关系，EI解释了尽责性中28%的变异（<0.05）。具体而言，乐观和情绪调节与尽责性呈现出高度正相关（r = 0.501），而情感评估呈现出中度正相关（r = 0.391），情感运用呈现出低度正相关（r = 0.120）。基于性别的分析显示，女运动员在情感运用方面得分显著更高。这些发现表明，提高残奥会运动员的EI可以增强尽责性，这可能有益于他们的恢复力和心理稳定性。未来的研究应探索纵向设计，以进一步检验这些关联。
