Abstract

Abstract The Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire Short Form (TEIQue-SF), a brief and effective tool used for assessing emotional intelligence, originated in the Western culture and needs to be adapted to other cultures. The current study aimed to evaluate the psychometric properties of an Arabic-adapted version of the TEIQue-SF. A cross-sectional study was conducted on a sample of 487 Arabic-speaking participants, including students and laypeople. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was used to assess the conceptual factorial structure. Measurement invariance analyses were performed across genders. The big five were employed as external validation measures. The CFA findings validated the proposed TEIQue-SF structure, which included one latent factor (global trait EI) and four indicator factors. Analysis of measurement invariance revealed that the TEIQue-SF Arabic version was factorially equivalent across genders. Furthermore, TEIQue-SF demonstrated good internal consistency. No significant differences are observed between women and men in terms of trait emotional intelligence. The correlations between TEIQue-SF and the big five dimensions demonstrated the theoretically predicted relationships with these variables. We concluded that the Arabic version of the TEIQue-SF is psychologically sound and appropriate for research and practice in Jordan.

期刊介绍： One of the largest multidisciplinary open access journals serving the psychology community, Cogent Psychology provides a home for scientifically sound peer-reviewed research. Part of Taylor & Francis / Routledge, the journal provides authors with fast peer review and publication and, through open access publishing, endeavours to help authors share their knowledge with the world. Cogent Psychology particularly encourages interdisciplinary studies and also accepts replication studies and negative results. Cogent Psychology covers a broad range of topics and welcomes submissions in all areas of psychology, ranging from social psychology to neuroscience, and everything in between. Led by Editor-in-Chief Professor Peter Walla of Webster Private University, Austria, and supported by an expert editorial team from institutions across the globe, Cogent Psychology provides our authors with comprehensive and quality peer review. Rather than accepting manuscripts based on their level of importance or impact, editors assess manuscripts objectively, accepting valid, scientific research with sound rigorous methodology. Article-level metrics let the research speak for itself.
