The Journal of Social Psychology, 147(4), 325-343.http://hdl.handle.net/10315/29109Emotionally intelligent people – in other words, people with a greater ability to understand and use their emotions in their day-to-day life – tend to choose romantic partners who are supportive and not critical. The partners of people with high levels of EI are not overbearing in their support. People who tend to suffer from depression may not need as much direct support if they are higher on EI.Attribution-Noncommercial-No Derivative Works 2.5 CanadaPsychologyMental HealthResearch Summary
